When did that happen? I took a CPR class in 2014 and that was still part. The girlfriend renewed hers at the top of 16 and it was then too

When I took it we were advised not to put our mouths on a strangers mouth when they could puke up any kind of fluids or just have herpes or whatever.

Maybe that's selfish but the idea is to just do chest compressions because they likely have enough oxygen in their blood it's just not moving past the brain if the heart is stopped.

Remember that movie cliche where the villain saying some heinous poo poo would be broadcast or recorded and somehow that would save the day (like in Robocop, Wall Street, etc)?

If there's anything positive about a Trump presidency, it's that trope being thoroughly debunked.

Yeah, there's enough oxygen in your blood that you don't need to ventilate a cardiac arrest patient until the ambulance gets there. In fact, ventilating them will make the ambulance crews job harder because you're probably doing a poo poo job of it and overinflating the lungs.

I get annoyed by how movie CPR is all neat and clean and always works. The first time I did CPR, a dead lady threw up in my eyes. CPR is loving gross.

The most unrealistic thing about the jurassic park movies is that InGen wasn't obliterated into non existence from lawsuits and hush money payouts after four movies' worth of awful deaths and general destruction

It actually was. That's what sets off The Lost World, InGen is reeling from all the payouts so it's trying to recoup its costs with the San Diego park. Then after the rex gets loose, the company doesn't exist any more by 3.

Dead weight, just like this post.



So i haven't seen the first John Wick in a while but from what i can remember, once Vigo finds out that his son hosed with John Wick, the next scene with the together is him going "sorry son, John is coming for you, can't help you now" Then he sends dudes to John's home to try and kill him, then once that doesn't work he put a hit out on the guy to try and protect his son that i thought he already left for dead?


Also it's irritating me that the second one isn't even out yet and most likely won't be as good as the first, but will still be a million times better than any other action movie that is going to come out this year.

Yeah he kind of yells at his boy and says "you're hosed kid," but then still tries to keep him alive. What was weirder to me was that after his son was dead, Vigo still went after Willem Dafoe and openly antagonized Wick. Like my dude just run your criminal empire.

Of course then the movie would be a huge anticlimax.

IIRC Vigo said to his son "you will do nothing, because you can do nothing". As in the son could no nothing but Vigo was sure going to try.

He went after Marcus because he betrayed Vigo by saving John. You don't get to have a criminal empire by letting people get away with that poo poo.

As to why he then decided to taunt John about that well yeah that was a bad call but he was high as balls by then

Lions and tigers are generally silent when they hunt. Their roars are for territorial purposes. Also, the roar you associate with lions is actually a tiger. Lion roars sound stupid.

At the end of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Leatherface and the sleazy hitchhiker guy chase Sally out of the house onto the road, where the sleazy hitchhiker guy gets run over by a large truck. The truck driver gets out to help when Leatherface shows up and brandishes his chainsaw, the truck driver legs it, and Sally climbs into a passing pickup truck and escapes.

But what happens to the truck driver? :ohdear:

No animal makes noise when it hunts, they're trying to sneak up on something and murder it. To stop right in the act of catching something and give it a chance to get away would mean you don't get to eat as often.

I think the only time would be a pack of animals making communication sounds to co-ordinate, but a giant roar like a big cat is just territorial.

Vigo is the tragic hero of the film. He doesn't exactly do anything wrong at any point. As a man of honor, he must do everything he can to protect his son, even though he knows it is ultimately futile. The only way it could have been avoided is if he had simply stood aside, truly abandoned his son, but that would be to ignore his fatherly duty. He can't do that. So instead he does everything he can to stop Wick, however unlikely that may be. He's a man who runs into a burning building as it's about to collapse, because he can't just let the person trapped inside die.

Vigo is great. :allears:
