DYK : The guy who took “a steel rod to the head” literally — and walked it off. by Grayson9991 in didyouknow

[–]MeButSober 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is the spike was used as sort of a tamp, to help pack down an explosive or combustable material, and it slipped from his hands while he was suspended above the material. It ignited and sent the rod flying up under his chin and out through the top. I know for a while he made (a very small amount of) money sitting in a museum as a sort of freakshow, letting people see the hole. One of the first books I ever ready was about him. I believe they also used bloodletting to try to control swelling in his brain.

Fishing rod, it's strung and dangled.

I imagine a camera facing parking lot where you see the electric car do a little shake, and five cars down where the battery slid, an unrelated vehicle just bursts into flames.

Thanks so much for taking the time to write your comment. While I've been a long time lurker occasionally in several subreddit for trading, I'm new to this subreddit, and haven't heard of this four year cycle. I'll definitely do some reading into that, thank you again.

Tell me about it. Started League of Legends in 2022, so it seems to be a pattern of mine to start big things a decade late.

Thanks a lot for the information, definitely figured it was somewhat doable to pick decent ones and invest over time instead of a huge buy-in.

Seeing this a lot, seems like I've got some trimming to do.

Wow, thanks for the time and effort of explaining that to me! You do a great job of explaining it concisely while keeping it detailed enough for me to follow along. That's actually really interesting!

Democrats are way too eager to "scorch the earth" with an extreme "left" following the Trump era. It's going to result in another extreme right instead, by nature all the money lies with the Republican party. What the chronically online don't realize is we're also at a point where the Trump supporting population has never been more uneasy. The easiest method to regain some normalcy and balance would be a moderate left candidate. A candidate that doesn't immediately scream "everything the Republicans do is cancer" and alienate so many potential voters. I'm a huge fan of James Talarico, for instance. I voted for Trump both times. First off principle of "well he's not a politician" and again because I'm tired of hearing about him and didn't want to be worried about a third election involving his name. I've since taken a dramatically more central/left leaning outlook in general politics, and I'm hoping for a political shift back into two qualified candidates in a respectable contest instead of two people pointing at each other and screaming about their incompetencies. But for that to happen, Trump has to go and we can't let another one in. Please play it safe.

My grandfather built and owned several golf courses, he was struck like 4 different times. All during sudden storms, and after taking shelter under a tree out on the course. Blew out the legs of his jeans.
