   They should have changed the instructions to cause the mixure to explode.

I rode this thing...and those poles came SO close to my head I am sure it would have killed me if I didn't crouch deep in my set after the first one. Glad I see I was justified in my paranoia. Everything about that ride was crampt...designed for a 6 foot or under world of the 1970's...

Haha! I still remember when I was probably 6 or 7, the last time my family went to Disneyland on vacation when my grandpa was still alive, probably 86 or 87. Space Mountain scared the LIVING FUCKING SHIT out of me, and still after all this time, I still remember each and every one of those inclines and turns, haha! Seeing that video brings it all back man. Fuckin' weird how shit like that works, I don't remember much about my grandpa, but I remember to this day every last bump and turn of that one single roller coaster ride.

The tallest man ever, Robert Wadlow (1918 – 1940), reached 8 ft 11.1 in (2.720 m) in height and weighed 439 lb (199 kg) at his death at age 22.




The heaviest man ever, Jon Brower Minnoch (1941 – 1983), weighed approximately 1400 lb (634 kg, 100 stone).
Upon his hospital admission, it was estimated by endocrinologist Dr. Robert Schwartz that over 900 lbs (408 kg) of his overall body mass was retained fluid.
Transportation for Minnoch was extremely difficult. It took over a dozen firemen and rescue personnel, a specially modified stretcher, and a ferry boat to transport him to University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle. There, he was placed on two beds pushed together, and it took 13 people to simply roll him over for linen changes. After the hospital, he weighed 476 lb (215 kg), having lost approximately 924 lb (419 kg) - the largest human weight loss ever documented.

Mike the Headless Chicken (April 1945 – March 1947), also known as Miracle Mike, was a Wyandotte chicken that lived for 18 months after his head had been mostly cut off.

On September 10, 1945, farmer Lloyd Olsen of Fruita, Colorado, United States, had his mother-in-law around for supper and was sent out to the yard by his wife to bring back a chicken. Olsen chose a five-and-a-half-month-old cockerel named Mike. The axe missed the jugular vein, leaving one ear and most of the brain stem intact.

Despite Olsen's botched handiwork, Mike was still able to balance on a perch and walk clumsily; he even attempted to preen and crow, although he could do neither. After the bird did not die, a surprised Mr. Olsen decided to continue to care permanently for Mike, feeding him a mixture of milk and water via an eyedropper; he was also fed small grains of corn.

When used to his new and unusual center of mass, Mike could easily get himself to the highest perches without falling. His crowing, though, was less impressive and consisted of a gurgling sound made in his throat, leaving him unable to crow at dawn. Mike also spent his time preening and attempting to peck for food with his neck.
