THE protective power of poo.
An Australian pilate’s life was
saved over the weekend after he
managed to steer his plane into
20 tonnes of chicken manure.
The incident occurred whilst the
pilate, Ben Buckly, was in the
midst of a historic re-enactment
of the first ever controlled flight in
an Aussie made areoplane (in
1910), in Ballarat, when his plane
suffered power problems.
Fortunately Ballarat Council had
shifted the 20 tonne pile of chicken
poo to the side of the runway
prior to Buckly’s attempt, giving
him the perfect spot for a soft,
albeit squishy, landing.
BURIED for life!
Taiwan’s Rende Medical College
is giving its students a lesson in the
value of life, by burying them alive.
As part of the exercise, the
teenagers are required to write a
will, and pop on a burial shroud,
before being laid in a coffin.
Their “final resting place” is
then closed up and buried for ten
minutes under the floor of their
classroom, where they can quietly
contemplate life and death before
being dug up and ‘reborn’.
