Be safe

What a inspiring before and after!

Anyone remember a clip with a girl, probably in her late teens/early 20s, together with a group of maybe 7-8 other friends in a rocky sort of river setting, she slips, hits her head, and gets pulled along with the current under a bunch of rocks?

Pretty sure most or all of them were drunk because a few started openly laughing (“OooOohh!!! lololol”) when she ate it, I guess failing to realize she was (now) on the path to certain death.

I can’t ever unsee this shit….

The Space Shuttle Challenger disaster was a fatal accident on January 28, 1986, in the United States space program. The Space Shuttle Challenger (OV-099) broke apart 73 seconds into its flight, leading to the death of all seven crew members, as the first fatal accident involving an American spacecraft in flight. The mission, designated STS-51-L, was the tenth flight for the Challenger orbiter and twenty-fifth flight of the Space Shuttle fleet. The crew was scheduled to deploy a communications satellite and study Halley's Comet while they were in orbit. The spacecraft disintegrated above the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Cape Canaveral, Florida, at 11:39 a.m. EST (16:39 UTC).

The disaster was caused by the failure of the two redundant O-ring seals in a joint in the shuttle's right solid rocket booster (SRB). The record-low temperatures of the launch reduced the elasticity of the rubber O-rings, reducing their ability to seal the joints. The broken seals caused a breach into the joint shortly after liftoff, which allowed pressurized gas from within the SRB to leak and burn through the wall to the adjacent external fuel tank. This led to the separation of the right-hand SRB's aft attachment, which caused it to crash into the external tank, which caused a structural failure of the external tank and an explosion. Following the explosion, the orbiter, which included the crew compartment, was broken up by aerodynamic forces.

The crew compartment and many other fragments from the shuttle were recovered from the ocean floor after a three-month search-and-recovery operation. The exact timing of the deaths of the crew is unknown but several crew members are thought to have survived the initial breakup of the spacecraft. By design, the orbiter had no escape system, and the impact of the crew compartment at terminal velocity with the ocean surface was considered too violent to be survivable.

The disaster resulted in a 32-month hiatus in the Space Shuttle program. President Ronald Reagan created the Rogers Commission to investigate the accident. The commission criticized NASA's organizational culture and decision-making processes that had contributed to the accident. Test data since 1977 had revealed a potentially catastrophic flaw in the SRBs' O-rings. Neither NASA, nor Morton Thiokol (the SRB manufacturer), addressed the issue. NASA managers also disregarded engineers' warnings about the dangers of launching in cold temperatures and did not report these technical concerns to their superiors. As a result of the disaster, NASA established the Office of Safety, Reliability, and Quality Assurance, and arranged for deployment of commercial satellites from expendable launch vehicles rather than from a crewed orbiter. To succeed Challenger, construction of Endeavour was approved in 1987, and the new orbiter first flew in 1992. Subsequent missions gained redesigned SRBs, and pressurized crew suits for ascent and reentry.

Maybe they think he's fooling around.

Yummy road kill any one joining?

Unconfirmed reports suggest that despite a woman quickly helping the man get up, the boy suffered a broken neck and is believed to have later died in hospital.

According to South China Morning via Guangzhou Television, a paediatrician said: 'In the video, the man’s entire weight was on the upper body of the child, including the boy’s head and neck.

'The child might have suffered a cervical fracture.'
