Yeah, that was absolutely the point of the test. He didn’t get flustered by the aliens, observed the entire scene, and took his shot for a reason that had nothing to do with how weird the aliens looked

The darkness makes it feel like it's from a survival horror game. Now I'm imagining one where you're just exploring a large mansion maintained by a terrible previous owner, and there are no monsters or anything, but sawed joists, water features, oddly placed rocks, bad electrical installations all threaten to kill you.

If anything it looks like a survival horror protagonist solved a puzzle to open a door

e: Idea for a survival horror game: you are an urban explorer in an abandoned factory, and are haunted by supernatural entities as you journey to the center of the factory, solving all manner of puzzles, all the while the monsters get more powerful.

The middle of the game twist is that the spirits haunting you throughout the game are workers who died in various workplace accidents, and they grew more and more restless as you solved puzzles in hazardous ways. The second half of the game is escaping the factory, but righting your wrongs on the way out by removing the hazards and finally putting the spirits to rest.

Reminds me of when I played that old GameCube game Eternal Darkness, a survival horror game where you quantum leap between different protagonist characters

At one point I jumped into a character, checked his inventory and he had a penny in it-- and I knew, right then and there, that that penny was going to be stuck into a fuse box. I was right

I drove out of my neighborhood a few years ago and saw something black/copper in the road and realized it was a handgun magazine full of bullets, some had spilled out in the road. I was just worried about getting a flat by driving over metal poo poo so I swerved around it.

It's environmental story telling horror.
You never see anyone else in the same room as you.
No creepy critters, no lurking demons.

If you play your cards precisely right, you can take a very depressing mushroom trip to a burned and flattened version of town for a few minutes, but that's optional.

it is horror inasmuch as many of the incidental non-story things you see very likely are occurring where you live because there has been almost zero investment in infrastructure upkeep for half a century

but there are no personal threats, the danger and horror is systemic

TSA absolutely sell all the confiscated items, they don't hide this fact. What else are they going to do with the hundreds of knives they seize every day?

This last sliding window has been added in the recent seasons. In the past all you had was the hole for the camera with a movable blocker, and photographers could get a bit lazy. Sometimes photographers would interfere with play or the puck could injure people from the audience. Some players even had gruesome injuries when his face hit the hole after missing a check. The last injury I recall seeing was from a player getting his small finger caught in it:

https://twitter.com/spittinchiclets/status/1401693597473378310?lang=en

He then passed out when they popped the finger back in place and burst a bunch of blood vessels in his eyes.

There's a whole set of specs about how to make a hockey rink safe if anyone's into that: https://www.athletica.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Crystaplex-6A-booklet.pdf

Do note the addition of curved glass near the benches (p9), which were added after a player was run into a sharp corner and broke his neck, lost consciousness and missed a whole season (he miraculously did not die, and happens to be the same player who ran into a camera in a previous link). :nms: Gruesome video of the hit and guy nearly dying :nms:.

Traditionally hockey hasn't concerned itself with the players' safety a ton. It's gotten better. They added padding to sections of the glass like this one:

If you were wondering, no there was no penalty called and no Hunter was not suspended. Actually, this hit ended up on all sorts of "greatest hits" compilations and was part of the pregame video reel played at Caps games for almost 20 years after.

A guy I used to work with coached peewee hockey. During a practice one kid fell down and when he bent down to help, the kid started kicking and sliced his skate across his throat.

He was the only adult there, and the kids all started crying, so he gripped his throat and drove himself to the hospital, pouring blood. Left with a thick jagged scar across his neck.
