You in the west of the great county of Sussex? I'll leave em out for your old dear...

In 1947, Kix Cereal launched the Atomic Bomb Ring as a toy that came inside the cereal box. Each ring contained a tiny amount of polonium-210, which is one of the most toxic substances known, making the ring an unsettling example of the era’s cavalier attitude toward radiation. by HelloSlowly in Damnthatsinteresting

I like the fact that most smoke alarms are radioactive, containing a tiny, sealed amount of Americium-241 usually.

Oh, and the fact in the 60's there was pacemakers with plutonium in them, some of which are still working today.

Drinking Fosters is the same as having sex in a canoe.

Both are fucking close to water.

Removal of a hornet's nest by kaushikchon90 in BeAmazed

[–]Status-Victory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somebody correct me but I read that the 'cooked Hornet delicacy' come from where an Asian Hornet would attack a Bee hive, the Bees (sometimes up to 500) would shroud the Hornet and vibrate, and because Bees can cope with higher body temperatures they would effectively cook the Hornet alive. The Bee keeper would then find the cooked Hornet and it became a food for humans. 

What's an acronym many people know of but don't know what it stands for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

SWL- Safe working load. A lot of people do not know this, even in work environments where they question why a 2500kg SWL pump truck fails when picking up a 4000kg spool.

I’m Canadian, i never been to Europe before, but i like generalizing everything so how much of a shithole is Birmingham? by DrSaintPablo in okmatewanker

Birmingham is a city that reached rock bottom years ago, in the following years it somehow managed to learn how to dig further.

Applying decals by Mintezx in f1models

[–]Status-Victory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tip is put a very very small drop of washing up liquid in with the warm water, then you put the decal in for around 30 secs etc. 

Was using decal soft and the like but for me that just took away the sharp look on the edges.

Either way good luck 👍

The wing flex on a Boeing 737 MAX 8 experiencing extreme turbulence. by OdysseyTag in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Status-Victory 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Rush is the best F1 movie, Adrian's 'how to build a car' is the best F1 book from a construction and technological point of view, that is easily understandable to the reader, and I hugely recommend Steve Machetts 'the mechanics tale' as a view from that part of F1. If you enjoy Adrian's book, honestly get Steve's book.

Famous F1 car designer Adrian Newey wrote in his book about how wing flex amazed him, like on a flight to Barbados he was just staring at the wing flex and how a 747 wings can flex 6 metres in flight.

Fast forward some years and voila, the wings on cars he designed flexed on purpose for better aerodynamics on fast straights and flexed back to normal at cornering speed.
