That was an interesting link.

There is some interesting reading on 'the bodies of mount everest' if you search them out. Many many climbers have died over the many years people have been pushing to reach the summit. 'Green boots' is one such example of a climber who is now used as a landmark for other climbers to gauge their distance from the summit.

We lived on a busy road with park land across the road.
The park had a fence that consisted of 4x4regum posts with a 4x4 top rail.

A car lost control, hit the fence and then the top rail speared the grill, firewall, the drivers midriff and through the rear of his seat.

They had to cut the post either side of guts and lift him into the ambulance with the post still in him.

I slept through the whole event but my dad was there and he told me about it.

Ditto on that one, except the rail went past the driver's shoulder and out the back window. The fence was the same but it divided two levels of the road in front of our place. I think the driver couldn't make up his mind which level to take. He nearly ended up with no mind at all.

Aaaannnnd a couple more.
