[QUOTE=13illay;36280146]i see this picture mislabeled too many times
in actuality, it's just poor people trying to get a quick buck. "eey, watch this kid get his arm run over by a truck and be fine!" i'd call them street performers, but it's not much of a performance. but note the microphone the man is holding.
it may not be much better, but it's better than the false label it's had since like 2006[/QUOTE]
I didn't know the real story, but I was dubious about this picture as well. The cloth underneath and so - cars are heavy, but generally "flat" limbs like the arms and feet will be fine. My dad has his foot run over once, sure it wasn't nice, but neither the arm nor foot will be unusable or crusched after this. Still very scary to watch that kid, and I don't know which of the stories is more depressing.

[QUOTE=Mortson;36283466]If your idea of fun is being hit by morters 24/7, being shot and and suspecting every roadside vehicle might have a bomb under it then yes, it's fun.[/QUOTE]
In my experience I wouldn't put it past some mad cunts to think it was fun to be honest. For some people it does add action to an incredibly boring, mundane life, or even a harsh one for some people, along with giving them some kind of a sense of purpose and achievement, if they don't die obviously.
It's not at all for me, but I can understand why others would want to.

This is called The Sphere and was originally a sculpture outside the World Trade Center. After being found surpriseingly intact in the rubble of the collapsed towers, it was move to the nearby Battery Park, where it is now used a memorial to the people who died on 9/11.

Yeah you'll say that until you have to kill someone, see your friends die by bleeding out maybe in your arms or blown apart in front of you, lose a limb, suffer from a bad mental state once you get back home and other not so nice stuff.
Sounds fun.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't they sleep like that so debris and shrapnel don't hit them in the event an explosive detonates nearby?

Nah, they're okay, just sleeping at their campsite.

I'm not sure. Uncle Jimmema or the other guys at the [i]Thinking of Joining the Military?[/i] thread would be better to ask, as there's a few users who were or are still serving.

This video gets me every time i see it. I have a pitbull who was a stray and has been with us for close to 9 years. What sucks is that his time is slowly coming. I just know it'll be one of the hardest day of my life getting through it.

I've been staring at it for 3 minutes and Can't figure out what it is.
Is it a guy splattered by a tank.

Judging by all the red goo next to the tank, yes it is!

Delicious.
Does it have any reliable source? I wouldn't be surprised if this was viral propaganda by the government to discourage people from a protest after Tankman became so iconic.

Since the Chinese government actively censor the internet so there all mentions of the massacre are purged, not matter how trivial, I doubt it. Shanghai Stock Exchange results were censored on the anniversary after a drop of 64.89 points - (6/4/89). A massive coincidence China thought had to be censored!
