My dad got some medal for helping save a guys life in the army in a helicopter shop (idk what it's called) on a base. The guy was loving around with one those springs (for some landing gear I think) and it took off half of the guy's face. Apparently my dad was first on the scene and held his face together as best he could, then they hitched a ride on a helicopter and the pilot did some sketchy poo poo (like flying too low or over the wrong buildings or something, sketchy enough to get a really stern talking-to) to get the guy to the hospital as fast as possible to save his life. Guy lived. It took 35 years before my dad told me that story. gently caress springs. Woodsy Owl fucked around with this message at 06:16 on Jul 4, 2022 |

Why does it not surprise me that the marines are somehow involved with a vague but horrifying injury. Seem to recall not that long ago GIP was explaining how marines kept eating C4 to prove how manly they were and only stopped when one of them died from it (becuase it's really poisonous)

Seem to recall not that long ago GIP was explaining how marines kept eating C4 to prove how manly they were and only stopped when one of them died from it (becuase it's really poisonous) Idk about marines specifically, but eating C4 has been a thing since at least Vietnam. Here’s a case study on some idiot that ate some and got to aggressively poo poo himself while having seizures as a result. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7872618/ e: quote:The practice of purposeful ingestion of C-4 occurs disproportionately in young males. Analysis of case reports from 1969–2019, including both occupational and intentional exposures, found 31 were male, and none were female. Mean age was 26 years old. The average time from ingestion to onset of symptoms was approximately seven hours, with a range of 30 minutes to 16 hours.4,8–9 Ingestion quantities were inconsistently reported; however, a minimum ingestion of 1.58 grams to a maximum of 180 grams were reported. Of note, seizures were reported in 100% of cases.1–6,8–9 Icon Of Sin fucked around with this message at 11:48 on Jul 4, 2022 |

Aggressively poo poo himself? I think you mean "explosive diarrhea."

It's not just marines, it's combat arms as a whole. There's always an idiot around willing to try it, too. But marines are more known for their taste for waxy substances.

I was wondering why the guy was holding the ladle so close to the molten metal, and then I realized how much a lump that size must weigh

A friend of mine is building boards of fireworks and tying all the fuses together etc. There's about 6 platforms of 4x8 plywood platforms with wheels on them. He's constructing it all in the basement. The unfinished basement of his house. Just incredible stuff.
