holy crap! it take a lot to make my stomach turn, but that came pretty damn close!!

there was also a show on the other night on discovery health i believe about traumatic injuries. on guy got his head caught in a crocs jaws.

the story was that a croc will keep their jaws open for a long time untill they feel something, anything on their tongue or inner mouth. at which point they clamp shut automatically.

the guy that they showed the video of had handled crocs for a very long time and gave shows to tourists about his ability to handle them. as the grand finale, he put his head into a crocs mouth as he had done a thousand times before. only this time, a drop of sweat from his temple his the crocs tongue, and the jaws slammed shut. that too was pretty graphic.

Not actually deep fried, but pretty crispy. On my way back from picking up my lunch today a pickup ahead of me ran off the road and slammed into a tree. I didn't see the actual accident but it happened between the time I passed the spot, picked up a salad at McD's 1/2 mile up the road and came back. The truck was on fire and traffic was stopped. Police blocked the road both ways ahead of and behind us and they put out the fire and then directed the few cars nearby past the accident. I'm assuming they did that to get everyone out of the area before they pulled the body out. Weaving in and out of the emergency vehicles to get by caused us all to have to pass right by the truck. Dude was fried with his arms sticking up in the air. The impact was bad so he most likely died before the vehicle caught fire. Poor guy.

Intense thread here. Love how the guy in the video smacked the croc to piss him off first. Darwin award.

Yowers, that crock did the death roll 4 or 5 times and the guy only rolled about twice. I can only imagine what that did to his arm. Sorry to be honest, but he got what he deserved messing with the crock and sticking his arm in there. Very graphic video.
