I would say as far as "vested interest" goes sounds like no one has a bigger one than carol... Like in the doc she says alzheimers and now recently she says bipolar lol

I don't think she did it though. Like the easiest answer is the dumbass wandered off in Costa Rica or some poo poo. Went off the road driving into a lake. People died in the 90s

That dude sucked at not dying in the 90's. It's weird that no one noticed until he died in the 90's.

I don’t think she fed her husband to tigers or a meat grinder, though her comments on sardine oil are hilarious in that context. Between the “business” and what I’m going to assume was some pretty questionable sex tourism, I’m guessing all she would have needed to do was let the right person in Costa Rica know he was coming and the problem would sort itself out. In short, she might not have killed him, but it wouldn’t surprise me at all if she made it easy for him to die.

what drives me wild is the amount of people who have come out of tiger king thinking 'big cat rescue is the same as a road side zoo' I'm genuinely curious if the documentary actually covered the differences between BCR and the conditions the animals are kept in at places like Joe Exotics what it takes to get accredited internationally as a big cat sanctuary Or the fact that it is pretty much illegal to release most of the animals (usually rescued from private 'collectors') at BCR back into the wild, since that is the big thing everyone is flooding their youtube vids to complain about when you have an elderly tiger that has been declawed and privately owned it's whole life, it's choices are the 'retirement home' of a sanctuary or being put down, everyone is saying 'if BCR cared about the animals they'd be releasing them' and it boggles my mind how ill-informed of a position that is, and how easy it is to find that they do rehab and release the animals that 1) they are legally allowed to and 2) can be safely returned and 'joe exotic is sympathetic somehow' this i don't understand in the slightest they did cover what happens to the tigers he trades in if they aren't rescued, right? the private tiger trade is a meat grinder and once they aren't cute anymore, they end up butchered for parts i heard the deliberately cut out some of his racist tirades for 'lacking context' which is hilarious considering the stuff they left in note that none of this is about Carole Baskin because who gives a gently caress

Isn't the problem with radiation toxicity that you're not going to see the effects until your cells start being replaced? Which is why high-replacement parts of the body show impacts way faster.

capitaldelendaest posted:'joe exotic is sympathetic somehow' Joe isn't sympathetic to most people imho. He's interesting, unique, entertaining -- and most important, appears to be authentic in his bull poo poo. There are very few charismatic portrayals of rural America in media that aren't pathetically contrived. Same reason why people in Appalachia like Jesco White despite the fact that he is an abuser, totally insane, and practically got his own lovely father killed.

GWBBQ posted:I know I've asked this a couple of times in various threads, but if anyone can find the old Ask/Tell thread by the X-Ray weld inspector, please link it. The story I clearly remember was the tale of a supervisor who picked up what looked like a small spring from a retractable pen and put it in his back pocket, not realizing that it was a Cobalt-60 source, which was only revealed when he mentioned it to one of the technicians. The technician slapped it out of his hand, which suffered severe radiation burns, and its time in his back pocket led to the titular reference to his as "the man whose rear end rotted off." Is he one they basically didn't mercy kill so they could record his death for science? Or was that another guy. Telsa Cola has a new favorite as of 07:40 on Apr 17, 2020 |

Ah thank you. While we are on the topic, was there a case where some Russian guys found something (I forget what) while camping that was warm as gently caress so they used it as a heat source for their camp with predictable results or was that a fever dream I had.

Similar to that one there's the Samut Prakan accident from Thailand. Tl;dr--a hospital had an old cobalt-60 radiation source it had been using for radiation therapy, but upgraded to a new one. It sold the old unit back to the distributor, but the manufacturer (Siemens) no longer manufactured or supported cobalt-60 radiotherapy units, so... the radiation source ended up in a disused parking lot. This was relatively okay as long as the metal container was still sealed, but somebody saw a big metal thing and figured it was probably worth some money, so they swiped it from the parking lot and sold it for scrap. It found its way to a scrapyard, where the workers decided to cut it into more usable pieces with a blowtorch. By the time anyone figured out what was going on, ten people had received serious doses of radiation. Three ended up dying. The Wiki page for civilian radiation accidents actually has a bunch of listings for accidents involving improper or insecure disposal of those cobalt therapy units.
