So it's true, they are working on WMD's.

Weapons of Mass Defecation.

It would appear the Iranians are more of a risk than we thought....

Brilliant. Science at it's best. Don't ever accuse Iran of being a turd world country.

Well, I’ve had my pizza and Amsterdam’s still, well, in Holland, so has anybody else entered the black hole?

danger no there's suppose I so happened has nothing and now while a for running been It's

time continuum Space unaffected not is?

It's only because you are a bloke. Tiny lady poos skew the average. You need to find out the average weight of a male poo for a proper ranking...

I'm sure I skew the average back the other way, so we'll be ok

I am above average at something

I read somewhere that the average human bowel movement weights about half a pound. I rounded down to make the maths easier.

A 200g "ladypoo", if accelerated to the speed of light, would have kinetic energy amounting to slightly less than a 2.2 megaton nuclear explosion.

Certainly not something to be sniffed at.

...
The left half of Bugorski's face swelled up beyond recognition, and over the next several days started peeling off, showing the path that the proton beam (moving near the speed of light) had burned through parts of his face, his bone, and the brain tissue underneath. As it was believed that about 500 to 600 rads is enough to kill a person, Bugorski was taken to a clinic in Moscow where the doctors could observe his expected demise. However, Bugorski survived and even completed his Ph.D. and went on to work for CERN in Switzerland..

FTFY

As a researcher at the Institute for High Energy Physics in Protvino, Bugorski used to work with the largest Soviet particle accelerator, the Synchrotron U-70.[2] On July 13, 1978, Bugorski was checking a malfunctioning piece of equipment when an accident occurred due to failed safety mechanisms. Bugorski was leaning over the piece of equipment when he stuck his head in the part through which the proton beam was running. Reportedly, he saw a flash "brighter than a thousand suns", but did not feel any pain. The beam measured about 200,000 rads when it entered Bugorski's skull, and about 300,000 rads when it exited after colliding with the inside of his head.

As it was believed that about 500 to 600 rads is enough to kill a person, Bugorski was taken to a clinic in Moscow where the doctors could observe his expected demise. However, Bugorski survived and even completed his Ph.D..[3] There was virtually no damage to his intellectual capacity, but the fatigue of mental work increased markedly.[2] Bugroski completely lost hearing in the left ear and only a constant, unpleasant internal noise remained. The left half of his face was frozen, due to the destruction of nerves, and does not age.[1] He is able to function perfectly well, save the fact that he has occasional petit mal seizures and very occasional grand mal seizures.

What did his wife say when he got home? Oh Anatoli, what have you been up to now? Can’t you just be a bus driver or something like that?

[doodab]

An obvious lack of ambition here.

You think I should ask CERN for a job?

I did like this comment from the live feed.



So theres the answer to the question "Whatt happens if I stick my head there?"

it seems that it is true

EDIT: I know quoting Wikipedia doesn't necessarily mean it's true, however, the WIkipedia article does reference various quotes and sources
