Lee Graber of Tallmadge, Ohio, USA, endured the weight of the heaviest bed of nails on his body. He was sandwiched between two beds of nails, with a weight of 752.5 kg (1,659 lb) placed on top for a total of 10 seconds on June 24, 2000. The weight was loaded on top of him using a crane. The most difficult aspect was controlling his breathing as he had a lot of weight on his chest and he needed to relax to avoid bursting a blood vessel in his head.

A key characteristic of the bacteria that support the food chain at deep sea hydrothermal vent communities is a tolerance for temperatures that is much greater than ours. Some species of vent bacteria can exist at temperatures as high as 110°C! This is why these bacteria are called thermophyllic or heat loving. Some of the larger animals also are observed to live at warm temperatures. For example, the temperatures inside some tube worms, built directly on vent chimneys, have been measured at 40°C, and another kind of worm, the Pompeii worm, has been photographed leaving its tube and swimming near a temperature probe that recorded 110°

Jeanne Pierre Francois Blanchard built the first parachute and tested it using a dog. He put the dog in a basket equipped with his invention and then dropped it from a hot air balloon. It was a giant step forward for aviation history, but a giant step backwards in establishing the dog as man's best friend.

The parachute was invented by Leonardo da Vinci in 1515.

sugarjunkie -- Pac-Man

quote:

In 1979, Namco released Pac-Man, the most popular arcade game of all time. Over 300,000 units were sold worldwide. More than 100,000 units are sold in the United States alone. Originally named Puck Man, the game was retitled after executives saw the potential for vandals to scratch out part of the letter P on the game's marquee, which might discourage parents from letting their children play. Pac-Man became the first video game to be popular with both males and females.

In 1993 Luca Turilli decided to create a
powerful symphonic metal band. All that
combining with classical music Luca
loved to play with his guitar. The first to join him was Alex Staropoli and Daniele Carbonera. These three now formed a band called Thundercross. To become the group that they are today Rhapsody have changed vocalist and bass player a few times. It now looks like they have found a vocalist good enough - Fabio Lione. A year after the start they released their first demo, Land Of Immortals, on which Cristiano Adacher did the singing.
