If you're talking about the avalanche, it's from a movie called Force Majeure - the dad runs out leaving his wife and kids. She corrals the kids and everyone is fine. The avalanche didn't hit the building, just as lot of snow it blew up. So the dad comes slinking back trying to pretend nothing happened.

Yeah, that's the one I was referring to. That's a relief. I've seen too many clips of people irl just filming while something dangerous bears down on them.

In the case of an avalanche I guess at least there isn't really much you can do so might as well hope your corpse can get some likes on instagram.

You could be the guy who took pictures of the Mount Saint Helens eruption and then lay down on top of his camera, believing (correctly, as it turned out) that his charred remains would protect the film

drat, that sounded so cool. Assuming it's the same guy, it looks like (according to Wikipedia at least) that the film he tried to protect did not survive unfortunately.

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

In early June, National Geographic photographer Fred Stocker recovered Blackburn's camera from debris 2.5 feet (0.8 m) thick. The film was not salvageable, as the intense heat from the eruption had corrupted the negatives

They did find some pics of pre-eruption that they hadn't seen for 30 years though:

In December 2013, a roll of undeveloped film containing pre-eruption shots of Mount St. Helens was discovered in Blackburn's archives at The Columbian. The photos, taken by Blackburn during a helicopter photo shoot of the mountain the month before the eruption, were successfully developed over 30 years after Blackburn's death, and remain journalistically important as a record of the pre-eruption landscape.

Edit: VVV nice, thanks for the correction. I'm quite content I was wrong, as that's some dedication to a job VVV

I think OP was talking about Robert Landsburg who was able to protect his film from the eruption.

Wikipedia posted:

In the weeks leading up to the eruption, Landsburg visited the area many times in order to photographically document the changing volcano.[4] On the morning of May 18, he was within a few miles of the summit. When the mountain erupted, Landsburg took photos of the rapidly approaching ash cloud. Before he was engulfed by the pyroclastic flow, he rewound the film back into its case, put his camera in his backpack, and then laid himself on top of the backpack in an attempt to protect its contents. His body was found 17 days later, buried in the ash with his backpack underneath. The film was developed and has provided geologists with valuable documentation of the historic eruption.

quote:

A group of funeral directors in South Africa say they will sue a self-styled prophet who claims to have resurrected a dead man.
A viral video of Pastor Alph Lukau shows him shouting "rise up" to a man lying down in a coffin who then jerks upright to cheers from worshippers.
The funeral companies say they were manipulated into being involved.
The spectacle, seen outside Pastor Lukau's church near Johannesburg, has been ridiculed and condemned by many.
"There are no such things as miracles," the Commission for the Promotion and Protection of Cultural, Religious and Linguistic Communities

I was curious as to where this happened and what the regulations were for prepping a body for burial.

I actually never thought about it that way, but a religious person should find the concept of resurrection to be totally hosed up unless we somehow both knew they were in hell and this would give them an opportunity to redeem themselves. Heaven is the ultimate goal, right?

I don't equate resurrection to raising the dead. Language in the Bible, to me, implies that the souls of the dead either linger on Earth or enter a sort of suspended animation, pending the Second Coming. After the final battle between Lucifer and Jesus is when the Earth opens and Lucifer and his angels are cast into the fiery pit along with all the souls of the wicked, while those of the righteous ascend to the heavenly host.

Think of it as sort of returning the soul to the body from floating aimlessly around this plane.


I had one of those loving things on my cup when I was working at Subway once. I have no clue how it got there, but never the gently caress again, that thing was six inches long and looked like it could eat me.
