Definitely a film to be taken seriously. I've worked in industry for about thirty years now and have heard of many deadly accidents with some absolutely horrific ones in the mix. One non-lethal accident that still makes me cringe thinking about it was the guy who had his leg deep fried in a potato-chip plant.

There was a systems integration job that I once reviewed for bid at a plant that makes heavy-gauge wire products. Everywhere you went there was heavy machinery with cutters chomping and presses rolling and about a thousand ways to get hurt; which means liability for me for anything I do. Then, I swear to God, I met the floor manager - a one-armed guy called Lefty. Bye bye!

There is a basic rule of thumb in industry: The longer you have worked, the more you think about safety.

Ok, I have to ask... which arm was missing?

That video was horrific, like a Faces of Death movie compressed into 5 minutes. That was a long 5 minutes. It kind of reminds me of the venereal disease video I was shown in basic training.

His right arm was missing. :biggrin: And yes, he lost it in an accident at the plant.

Okay, I should have seen that coming, but I didn't. And I shouldn't have laughed, but I think the element of surprise made me. I feel like a bad person.

This one need a little setup for perspective. For a few years I was an avid listener of the Art Bell show. The reason was that the show was essentially UFO central - if you want to know who is making what claims, the Art Bell show was the place to go. Being that I had set out to understand what was real about the UFO phenomena, and what wasn't, The Bell show was a must. While it is fair to say that I wanted to reach through my computer screen and strangle Bell on more occasions that I can say, there was another side to the show that I began to appreciate: Listening to Art Bell was much like sitting around a campfire listening to ghost stories. From the middle of the Nevada desert, in the middle of the night, Bell created a sense of mystery and magic that made the show fun. Eventually he completed his circuit of guests and I couldn't take the crapola any longer, so I quit listening, but for a time it was a fun escape.

Also, I have spend many nights in a sleeping bag under a starry desert sky. Like Bell, the desert comes with a bit of mystery and magic of its own. Memories of those warm desert nights always make me smile. As a tribute to Bell, Crystal Gayle, a huge fan of Bell's, put out this recording that I think captures the feel of both the Bell show and the desert. I can't listen to this without remembering the calm and serenity instilled by a nightime desert breeze blowing gently across the dunes.

As a very strange aside that I still don't understand [how it came to be], my aunt and uncle once went to Disneyland with Crystal Gayle.

That's interesting. I enjoyed listening to Art too. Many of the guests were silly but even they could be entertaining to listen to.




Well here's another video. Apparently arm wrestling just isn't exciting enough on its own.

I almost burst out laughing when they lined up over an arm wrestling table. This is a ridiculously bad idea for a sport...UFC all the way.

Also, I heard one of the announcers say,

"It's got velcro on it, the strongest material on the Earth!"

Great video indeed!

Has YouTube been slow for anyone else lately? Right after I did a Windows update, the YouTube videos were bumpy [many delays]. I was hoping this was a coincidence.

We have direct TV but I'm not sure what channel airs them... we may see them on Bravo when we watch West Wing. In any event, they appear to be broadcast nationally.

I think they have about beat the cavemen to death as well.

Honestly, I'm not a fan of british humour but the "Are you the doctor. Doctor who?" was classic.

I remember that the first time I saw this I found it a little disturbing; I think because it moves in ways that we're not accustomed to seeing. Other people I knew had the same reaction.
