OT: The Most Horrible Thing You Have Ever Seen That Wasn't On The Net
Tricky Dicky
obviously just been hit by vehicle and was doing that spasming flappy tail
broken spine thing.
On the way back home, I passed by the same spot and somehow the cat must
have flipped about so much that it got itself out into the road. Whereupon,
in the intervening five hours, several thousand road users had driven over
it and, well, completely flattened it.
I wasn't going to have pizza tonight as well

Yes, I saw the exact same thing once, a cat that had just been hit by a car
and had a broken back or something. It was still just about alive when we
found and was pitifully trying to breath but died in my arms shortly
afterwards.
It had a collar with an address on which was actually the house that we
had found the cat in front of. We knocked on the door and told them what
had happened and they were very snotty about it. I think they thought we
had hit and killed the cat or something.

When we were in Peru just as we arrived into Cusco after an overnight
bus journey the first thing I saw (my wife was asleep) was a cyclist who had
just
been killed when a lorry had hit him and just before the local police had
time to
cover him with sheets of newspaper. His head was totally mashed in and
there were large pink globules of his brain splattered on the road all
around
him.

I worked in A&E for 5 yrs in the early 80's , you get used to it very
quickly . I was a plaster technician , we used to help out in Resus
( the emergency room) as a spare pair of hands etc. At first I was
shocked , then I was fascinated then I couldn't be bothered.
Saw a kid knocked down and killed on his bike outside school years ago
- didn't see much but always remember the road "steaming" with the
blood , it was a cold wet day and he went under a lorry .

September, 2002 - on a train somewhere near Rotherham when some poor guy
decided he'd had enough and stepped out in front of a freight train ahead of
us. Passed the scene after being held up for an hour or so - lots of sheets
covering body parts. Well, the larger body parts at least, and the blood was
harder to cover up they left it as it was, for the most part... :-S

Oh my god - you can see it's in trouble as it reaches vertical , it
hasn't the airspeed to get over the top of the loop. It enters a stall
and he hasn't the engine power to power out of it. Has there been an
inquiry do you know?

You can see at the top of the loop that it really is an underpowered
manouever, with an over-exaggerated fishtailing motion. It looks wrong
whichever way you look at it. Okay, when the Italian pilots did their
single man "swizzle" (lurching side-to-side and back and forth at the
same time with smoke on) it does look odd but still controlled.
I was at the opposite end of the runway at Duxford when the Fairey
Firefly crashed at Duxford. The manouever it did even gave me time to
say to my mate (through gritted teeth) "he's not going to make it!" and
the rest was on the news.

I've searched and nothing on that, same for the Firefly at Duxford and
as to the report about the second (possibly) airworthy Lanc we had which
was in storage with the RAF Museum when the hangar at Woodford collapsed
- well, nothing and no-one seems to be to blame. It was sold off in bits.
"Built by March 1945; flown to England by 24 May 45 to #32 M.U. St
Athan, Glamorgan; issued to #405(B) Sqdrn as code 'LQ-K'; too late for
operations; returned to Canada; attached to #664 Wing, Tiger Force;
converted to Mk.10AR; issued to #408(P) as code 'MN976'; flew the last
flight for that Sqdrn. and was at the retirement ceremony at Downsview,
Ont. 1.4.64; sold to Calgary International Airshows(Lynn Garrison);
Flown by Garrison & co-pilot Ralph Langemann on 4 Jul.64 for the Calgary
Airshow, but MoT caught word of it and the people involved were charged
with 'flying without proper authority' was chucked out of court; (see
'Flying the Frontiers' by S.S.Matheson); sold to Spartan Avn.; placed on
CCA Reg. on 6.6.64 as CF-TQC; used as a water bomber by Northwestern
Flying Services,St.Albert, Alta.; sold in 1975 to Strathallan Collection
of Scotland and flown across the Atlantic in May, 1975 registered as
G-BCOH; resold to Charles Church; upon his death in a Spitfire, KB976
became part of a private collection(Steve Halton) at Sandtoft, Notts.
U.K.; sold to Kermit Weeks and transported to Florida, USA"

I wouldn't know what an underpowered manouever, let alone an
over-exaggerated fishtailing motion looked like during an
air display. As would 99.99% of the population I would imagine.
It all looks pretty dangerous stuff, but that's the whole *point*.
Looking dangerous when you are in fact totally in control of
your plane. The general public cannot possibly detect the
moment when you are *really* out of control.

I found an aircrash report on the Kingcobra
http://www.aaib.dft.gov.uk/cms_resources/dft_avsafety_pdf_500062.pdf
or search the site
http://www.aaib.dft.gov.uk/home/index.cfm
It seems they don't know what happened to the Cobra - he had problems
earlier with a stalled loop but he carried on . It's inconclusive -
personally I reckon there was something wrong with it but we'l never
know. The plane according to a few sites was difficult to fly but
thats in relation to other planes of its time - landing problems
having tricycle as opposed to tail dragging etc.

That's right, because the system works perfectly. Even if you were a

That's why hospital staff are worried about leaving a hospital to
attend someone who falls ill close to their property boundary line. I
recall a case in Reading involving a man who collapsed with a
suspected heart attack just a few yards away from the entrance to the
A&E dept, and staff apparently refused to leave the premises to treat
him. They had to route a call through the hospital switchboard and
call for an ambulance. I'm reasonably sure (but by no means certain)
that that it was down to the fact that if anyone on duty dashed out to
help him and cocked up, they could be personally liable as they
weren't insured to deal with it whereas an ambulance crew was.
Theoretically you could have the bizarre situation where an ill person
crawls along the road to reach the hospital boundary. A Father Ted
situation, with a resucitation crew standing by cheering the heart
attack patient on.

I suppose it's different if you have no real interest in it but in some
ways seeing something like that is like watching a juggernaut sliding
sideways down the M25. Okay, to a farmer who may have never ever seen
traffic, they might see nothing wrong but to a car driver - well, that
would probably be something different.

If aircraft and flying has been something you've taken part in like with
most things you get to see what's not quite right although it's almost
always a second or two before impact. There are some outstanding things
such as the manouevers that the Pitts Special does but that is always at
height, and there are not that many manouevers that WWII aircraft are
put through, all of the manouevers having names
(<http://aerobaticsweb.org/acro_figures.html>) . Even the Falling Leaf
could not be identified in that footage!

The most distressing things I've witnessed haven't been the gory
things (like most people, I've seen my fair share of gruesome
accidents and deaths), but terrible things done in a matter-of-fact,
casual way, like torture and brutality (police), and a Chinese
gangster killing.

Richard Brooks
This is what I have in an old documentary about women ATA pilots in
WWII. They generally hated it and understood why they were given to the
Russians.
If you re-read the second paragraph under the subtitle 'Video evidence'
on page 3 they do state that he had made a previous unsuccessful
manoeuver two minutes before which would suggest that that was a pilot
driven activity, not something such as an engine fault to which the
pilot would have been trained to leave the flying pattern as a result.
Then compare the recommended airspeeds for the type and the report
sections on page 2.
Personally, I think the pilot did something that he shouldn't have -
they all do it and he paid. Worse is the loss of an historic aircraft.
The words of the Head of the BBMF team always come back referring to the
Lanc: "flying limits to 2g and no night flying. There is no replacement
for that machine." and I'm glad that there is no pushing of the ego in
the pilots, no flying to 60ft with undercarriage up - you know the sort
of thing.

I think that is why the dead cat was more affecting than the hundreds of
squashed wild animals that I've driven past over the years.
No doubt a small child, family, old lady etc. is this very morning wondering
why Tiddles didn't come home last night

In that situation it must be sorely tempting to take the largest
object to hand, walk over and put them out of their misery with a few
solid, well aimed blows. Of course, you'd be in awful trouble if you
did, but it's what any decent person would do for an animal in that
predicament.

Who is boasting? The question was asked and I imparted the
infomation .
Boasting is saying ""My le fanu books are worth 3K eack - more than
Alan Hopes car"" or "I drive a Chrysler grand voyger - with the
mercedes engine""
Either contribute properly or ooze back under what ever stone you came
from.

There is a difference being seeing a total stranger being killed accidently
and mentioning that you personally know someone who killed themself
intentionally. And then giving out this person's name and personal details.

In the late 70's we had a cat who did just that, went out one day
and never came back. We never found out what had happened.
to her. She was always a bit of a wanderer and it wasn't unusual for
her to be gone for 24hrs so at first we weren't worried.
I guess a traffic accident was the cause.
You know I still occaisionally think of it, that one day, one day,
she'll come home....

I'm suprised anyone is left that he knows who hasn't killed themselves
- even his wife knows folk that have killed themselves. Hell if I met
him _I'd_ kill myself!!

I only took the stance I did to prove how callous it is to accuse
someone of lying about such an issue.
Of course you're not boasting, just as I wasn't boasting about knowing
a local man who threw himself in front of a train. Neither of us have
anything to gain from lying about the issue.

A few years ago I saw someone collapse and bang his head on the pavement
right in front of me (probably fainted because it was quite a hot day). I
was just about to phone for an ambulance when I realized there was one
parked next to me (probably between jobs) and the crew jumped out to sort
him out before I had a chance to do anything.
Other stuff: watching a girl have a grand mal epileptic fit was one. Not
much you can do in that situation apart from making sure they avoid injury
until the convulsions stop. Thankfully she was inside (albeit on a lino
floor) and away from any sharp objects, and there was someone on hand to
sort her out once she'd recovered.
Being involved with Thai boxing means I'm pretty likely to watch (and get)
injuries. The worst I've had are the odd bruise, a cut lip (yesterday), a
cut on the forehead (after sparring with someone who was on Cage Rage a few
weeks ago), a black eye, a sprained foot and occasionally feeling a bit
dizzy when I'm dehydrated and been hit hard in the face. I've also seen
people get knocked out (his wife wasn't too impressed) and get various cuts
including nosebleeds.

By way of making your post even more amusing, I've removed the boring
bits about Twat-Kando and suggest these as replacement missing words:
"a nightclubber in Bolton"
"a big fan of Erasure"
"a Leeds supporter"

sea about a month. Nasty. Skin coming off, eyes all eaten by gulls, body all
puffed up and inflated.
The smell is pretty bad and it sticks to everything. The boat was covered in
little bits of white skin after, one of which was an entire fingertip. That
stuck in my memory!
Nasty.

He may have fallen through a hole in the fabric of space time and into
the part of the multiverse where Cats are the dominant species. The
local King of the Cats took a liking to him and had his intelligence
augmented to that level of the locals.
Even now he may be looking into a benign time probe at 21st Century
Earth and trying to find the nice guy who was kind to him in his former
existence.............
I hope that cheered you up a bit :-)
