I guess not Circus elephant crushes man to death | Herald Sun In fact, in this case, you would wonder why the guy even noticed the elephant on top of him, because a 13,000 lb elephant spreading its weight over 100 square feet of surface area will only exert 10 lbs per square inch of pressure.

May the geek- er, freak show continue

Well... I wouldn't normally admit it in public but...

Heh, I know that girl (Princess Anna).

I know that we're a community of gentlemen here, so I'll address the OP and figure that ya'll won't be too quick to judge.
I'm pretty modified. Some big piercings, a lot of large tattoos, some implants, and a split tongue. Body modification is a passion of mine, and I'm fortunate enough to make a very comfortable living in an industry that I love.

I've also recently introduced a few heavily modified friends to both straight razors and SRP. Facial piercings add another degree of difficulty

Didn't see your first post there. I had typed up my response but was called to the lab. Well really either situation is less than ideal. But if I had a choice, I would most certainly choose the elephant. Point of evidence: woman and elephant walk in sand. Have you ever seen an elephant's footsteps? They're pretty faint since their feet are fairly large. Women wearing heels, on the other hand, will leave several dots on the ground.

Also, that article doesn't mean a thing. There are added factors with a falling elephant such as the impulse. I mean a fly hitting a windshield is kaput due to the impulse.

That article says the man died of cardiac arrest... not a crushing injury... He saw a giant elephant falling on him, and died of a heart attack.

Do I count as freaky for missing partial digits?

No, but the dirty fingernails count I think.

Me, I'm not freaky or nothin', no not me. Although I do get compared to Indiana Jones a lot. Before that it was Crocodile Dundee. Just depends on the hat and the decade i guess.

I have to agree with the dirty fingernails bit because not too many people work hard enough these days to get their fingernails dirty in the first place!
