― the pinefox, Monday, 15 September 2008 11:53 (seventeen years ago)
On November 13, 1986, self-employed hod carrier Michael Lush was killed during his first rehearsal for another live stunt. The stunt, called "Hang 'em High", involved bungee jumping from an exploding box suspended from a 120ft-high crane. The carabiner clip attaching his bungee rope to the crane sprang loose from its eyebolt during the jump. He died instantly of multiple injuries, and the Breakfast Show was scrapped on 15 November after Edmonds resigned.Although the inquest recorded a verdict of misadventure, the jury were informed of several failures on the part of the BBC. Graham Games of the Health and Safety Executive stated that the clip could have been opened by the weight of a bag of sugar, and demonstrated that the clip sprang loose 14 times in 20. David Kirke, a bungee specialist from the Dangerous Sports Club, stated that a similar stunt he had been involved with used three ropes, as opposed to the one rope used by the BBC, and shackles in the place of carabiner clips.[7] There was no safety officer on hand, and no supervision or demonstration from a trained stuntman. There was also no way for Lush to contact the ground once he was in the air, and nobody in the air with him in case he changed his mind; the jury heard that he delayed for almost two minutes before finally being instructed to make the jump. Furthermore, despite advice against it, the BBC production team had insisted on the use of an elasticated bungee rope.The BBC made an ex gratia payment of approximately £120,000 to Lush's family. While the coroner recommended that safety officers be available during any such future stunts, BBC managing director Bill Cotton stated that there would be no future programmes that exposed members of the public to risk.[8] After the inquest, Noel Edmonds was quoted as saying "If I was to continue my career at the BBC I would want to be fully confident about any production team I was provided with."[9] He returned to the BBC's Saturday night lineup two years later, presenting Noel's Saturday Roadshow.

I had this weird thought the other day. I'd always dismissed the idea of a god watching over all our movements, carefully micromanaging things like a boss that can't let go, measuring the worth of our actions and alloting commensurate reward or punishment to each and everyone. Okay, it would work with just Adam and Eve and a few of their offspring, but now, with a world population in the billions, such a god would just never have the time to do all this surely. And then I realised that what if Facebook was a part of his plan? He could just friend us all and then read all our updates. Suddenly with this one technological development he has a doable job. I therefore suggest that if you started a Facebook group asking god to kill Noel Edmonds, he would see your message and verily smite him down.
― French Cricket in the USA (NickB), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:45 (fourteen years ago)
I think you're getting God confused with Santa here. It's an easy mistake to make though, both have a large white beard, both reward the good and punish the bad. Both know if you're sleeping or if you're awake. Both hate Mr. Blobby. Pretty sure there's something in the Bible about that, and also sure I once heard Santa quoted as saying "Ho ho ho! Fuck that bloated purple and yellow gobshite!". He also said something about hating Mr. Blobby as well IIRC.

The iMRS’ whole body mat employs technology that delivers a frequency range from 0.5 Hz to 28 Hz, including harmonics, to the human body that allows all cells to resonate with their own frequency. Engineered with three pairs of copper coils that create a triple saw tooth waveform signal, the mat ensures the body receives a clean and pure signal. The innovative solution is painless, non-evasive and keeps all 70 trillion cells in your body charged at an optimal level, allowing them to maximize oxygen, water and nutrient transfer as well as eliminate waste.
