I got an MA in asking leading questions about how sexism isnt real, and regularly fail to grasp that other people have different experience than me or enjoy different things.
I also own multiple fedoras, to go with my leather dusters, and racist pin badges.

Wes @grizkid is seen here crawling into a unusually deep and narrow 70 foot den in order to sedate and re-collar a 320lb male black bear around Bryce Canyon National Park. It was one of the most claustrophobic and scary situations of my life. Wes disappeared into the den of this hibernating bear armed with only a short aluminum pole attached to a tranquilizer dart. The tunnel was only as big as the bear with no escape except a very quick 50 foot backwards crawl should he decide to charge.
Wes, 31, is a masters student at Brigham Young University who is currently doing his thesis research on black bear (Ursus Americanus) populations around Bryce Canyon National Park.

You know, I always knew the 70's were filled with drug abuse, but I never imagined the amount that it would take to produce this film.

Thing is it's about 300ft to the water level but they're not sure how deep the water goes yet. The closest and deepest mine to me is Dolcoath, which has a primary depth of 3,300 ft (1km) and over 60km of tunnels leading off from it so...could be very deep haha

This is classic built up stress in a material. It looks stable but it has to release the twist when the load comes off.

Last summer, my dad decided to limb a tree and I told him that there is likely a twist in the 200 year old large branch and to do it carefully. He decided to stick a ladder up and start cutting and ignore me. Unfortunately, this was over the phone.

It threw him a good 10 feet. Thankfully he threw the chainsaw away from himself as he fell. His arm was all chewed up from the branch snapping back at him. Remember, both trees and steel are alive and they'll kick your rear end when the tension comes off.

An electrician has died after falling 53 storeys from a construction site in Los Angeles.

quote:

Police were quoted as saying the man struck the rear of a car on Wilshire Boulevard when he fell.

It was reportedly only the man's second day working on the project.

The man died at the site of the Wilshire Grand Center, part of $1bn (£690m) development which will be the tallest building on the US West Coast when completed.

Officials from the construction company said the man was not supposed to be above the third floor and had removed his hardhat.

An eyewitness told AP the driver of the car that was struck was "hysterical',' waving her hands in the air and holding her head. She was later taken to hospital.
