He only knew knight moves, it's not surprising he couldn't pull off a straight jump.

Every youth in Russia, no matter their accomplishments, is still vulnerable to deadly drunken stunts. It's literally the only thing to do there.

I don't recall where it was mentioned, maybe in this thread, but someone said that many of these Russian stunt junkies are so massively in debt to various nefarious people in Russia that they are basically dead anyhow, so making money off the ad revenue for doing insanely risky stuff is actually a viable way to raise funds to pay off said people, because the alternative is being dead anyway.

Probably. The mechanism of action is very similar to how cholinesterase-inhibitor nerve gases work on humans, and one of the immediate signs of poisoning by those compounds is that you start shooting fluids out of everywhere that can produce them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SLUDGE_syndrome

In fact, VX and GB (sarin) chemical agents were both developed out of a program that was trying to invent new insecticides. I'm not sure if organophosphorous compounds are still used to kill bugs, but they sure do a good loving job.

I take a dose of .1 to .2 mg of atropine daily, am I immune to nerve gas? :black101:

Its added to IBS diarrhea medication so you wont try and take them all at once and "get high" off the Diphenoxylate. I think you'd need to take like 50 to get a "I think I feel something"

Imodium is an opiod, you just need to take a lot to get it to cross the blood-brain barrier. Overdose symptoms are typical opiod plus cardiac effects.

I doubt he impacted the car's trajectory much. A pro move would have been to get the gently caress out of the way of the several thousand pounds of car falling towards him.
