Yeah, that's pretty strange seeing it for real like that. Amazing how many trees have sprung up all over the place. I love that nature is reclaiming the land :cool:

I love urban abandonment, and urban decay, I find it really fascinating, it's like a moment in history frozen in time as nothing is changed as the years fly by. Similar to thinking about the life of a 3000 year old tree, how the world and landscape must have changed around it over that time, like a time-lapse video.

So, waterboarding? What's it all about?

Obviously I know what waterboarding is, but I've always been curious as to why it's as bad as it's said to be. So I set out to do some research.

I thought maybe I'll give it a go, in my own controlled environment, but after reading a really excellent post on StraightDope, I won't even consider even attempting it. The guy explains the experience so well it leaves no doubt in my mind it's horrific, totally tortuous and not something I want to try at home...

Watch: Christopher Hitchens in a controlled experiment of it.

I used to worry about me now im worrying about you :undecided: what on earth led you to that lmao

Mike · Dec 13, 2014 3:24:57 pm

Just curiosity,

Wanted an understanding of why it's so bad, as it never seemed to be something that'd be torturous in any way, but I've a good understanding now that it's very awful.

Yeah I know it sounds like you just hold yer breath ..but....I had recently read a book called I am Pilgrim and that contained in depth description of the technique .

Actualy just standing up with yer arms stretched out can be pretty torturous , plus theres not allowing you to sleep , or constant playing of Cliff Richards or Wham records , or in my case Status Quo , id tell um anything they wanted to know after 5 mins :embarrassed:

I think I'd find torture quite easy.....I'd imagine it was the ex Mrs talking to me

Your kind of thing @HK_Fuey

(not that i'm in a position to criticise this kid, but he seems to spin far too many times than necessary.. is that just showing off, or part of the move?)

Carol · Dec 18, 2014 2:25:42 pm

I think thats called male posturing.....yeah hes showing off...

He got skills

HK_Fuey · Dec 18, 2014 11:37:14 pm

The wind up generates power, but I'm pretty sure everyone would see that coming and just take a step back.

Still, very impressive!

Mike · Dec 18, 2014 11:45:31 pm

So the extra spins are good for a static object, but he'd have to make do with the power of one quick spin for a real situation... That's cool.

Yeah i dont doubt hes got skills but just like Raiders of the Lost Ark ....

Bang !!

You could actualy have him quite nicely on the end of a Gladius and his weight would do the rest....Viking sword might be a bit long?

Why am i working out ways to kill the poor little fooker ? Geez, where are my pills?
