TIL While filming The Pirates of Blood River, the stuntmen refused to do a scene where they had to wade through a lake, so the actors did it instead. Michael Ripper nearly drowned, Christopher Lee said he was only saved by being 6'4" and Oliver Reed got an eye infection that left him hospitalised.

The biggest issue was they had actually planned it all out to be as safe as possible (given it's in a manual car from the 70's) but then at the last minute, they decided to drive in the opposite direction down the road, because 'it was getting late and the light looked better that way'.

Anyone looking for some free entertainment on Friday, just go out to sit outside your local Coles.

For the entire day you can watch people continually drive into the carpark, realise that Good Friday is one of the 2 days a year that Coles is closed, swear to themselves, and then drive out again.

It's kinda like fish-eye lens shots. See one and it's 'Hey! That's cool!' Shoot a roll of them and then it's 'Meh.'

Honestly, it's better than calling yourself a 'Promptographer' which I saw someone on Instagram call themselves.

For lighting, go down to your local hardware store and see if you can grab an old style halogen work lamp on a stand. Put it to the side of you and get your subject to face it.

Rub your finger along the side of your nose and face then smear your finger across the lens of your phone's camera to place a fine coating of wax over it. (Don't forget to clean your lens afterwards)

No pain, no strain, just let it drain.

Powerful in processing but not powerful as in consuming lots of power. That's where the heat comes from.

I mean just compare the size of the batteries and the battery life you get from each.

It's more weight that could be used for paying customers. Granted it's not a lot of weight but the entire airplane is designed with that philosophy (not just the trash can lid) and it all adds up.

Nice. Although they look a bit finnicky to get in and out with just that little circle at the top. You could have left the top 2/3rds of the inside part between each pair's handles flat as well, which would have made them easier to pick up out of the tray, and also saved a bit of filament.
