    My heart was in my mouth watching that.

    I guess the only difference between 170ft and 1,700ft is the size of the crater.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          Reminds me of that French bloke who climbs skyscrapers without any safety harness. Saw a short TV clip of him a while back, could do full body lifts using one arm etc so supremely fit. Just waiting for him to do the new tower in Abi Dabi.

            Wasn't he in the news again a few weeks ago for climbing a building somewhere in Oz?

              I worked with a complete mountaineer nutter who climbed the Birmingham post office tower without a rope in the late 70s.
              Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ here
