Why is that person filming vertically?
Why is that person filming instead of getting the gently caress away?

Who complains about vertical filming still in TYOOL 2021? That's some boomer poo poo now.

it's pretty likely to be Nyiragongo, the lava flows just reached the outskirts of the nearby city.

People who complain about vertical filming are probably watching the movies on a desktop computer like some old fart instead of on their phone like cool people do.

how about a compromise:

you can complain about vertical filming, but only to the person who actually recorded it.

no one else wants to hear about it.

The thing about hanging like that is the longer you hang the less strength you’re gonna have to pull yourself up. If you don’t have the strength to do it right now, just save yourself the trouble and let go.

They would probably also be carrying the least amount of gear possible, so no jacket, space blanket, or other cold weather gear.

So people hanging around the current eruption in Iceland started noticing a slight issue with their hair.



Not quite related, I had very long hair when I was in high school ; during physics class our teacher brought out a van de graaff generator and I got to be the 'what happens to statically charged hair' demo. I stood on a plastic five gallon bucket and held the plate on the top, and when my hair got charged up enough it started finding ground through my rubber soled shoes, past the bucket, and into the linoleum floor

The OSHA is that I jammed my ribs into a table panic jumping off the bucket

I want to do some math to figure out what the voltage would have been roughly now

250,000 to 400,000 volts for a classroom-scale van de graaff generator.

i don't know what you mean about your "hair finding ground." was your hair so long it was dragging on the floor?

Normalize starting filming vertically, but rotate to horizontal once you start so everything is sideways and when someone flips their device to compensate, the video starts flipping, too.

Normalize a 1:1 video format so it doesn't matter which way you hold your phone.

I guess the same instinct doesn't work when the bottle is full of liquid fire

Nightmare stuff.

quote:

Fourteen people including a child have been killed, and another child is seriously injured after a cable car fell on a mountain near Lake Maggiore in northern Italy on Sunday.

The accident happened on a service transporting passengers from the resort town of Stresa up the nearby Mottarone mountain in the region of Piedmont.

Images from the scene show the wreckage lying in a steep wooded area.

The victims included foreign nationals, the local mayor said.

"We are devastated, in pain," Marcella Severino, mayor of Stresa, told broadcaster RAI.

Two children aged five and nine were airlifted to hospital in Turin. The nine-year-old later died. The five-year-old was conscious upon arrival and was undergoing surgery for multiple fractures, the hospital said.

The death toll steadily rose in the hours after the accident as the wreckage was searched.

The cause of the incident remains unclear, but local reports suggest the cable carrying the vehicle may have failed about 300m (984ft) from the top of the mountain.

The cabin fell about 20m to the ground and rolled over several times down the slope before being stopped by trees, Mayor Severino said.

Nearby hikers heard a loud hiss before the accident, she added.



According to other reports the cable car had been shut down for a year because of COVID.

Houses tend to contain things you don't want to be near when they get heated by lava, and the smoke isn't exactly healthy either.

Interestingly Mt Nyiragongo's lava is very thin so it flows extremely quickly in areas, like speeding car fast, so there's often no chance of outrunning it.
