I find the CGI interesting, especially how it is becoming more sophisticated and realistic. Car wrecks? Well...having worked as an EMT I can tell you there is nothing interesting about 'cleaning up ' a car wreck. PTSD is definitely a risk doing that job. Yet, people always gawk at wrecks...why is that?

Derek Dangleberries Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 This is for @boydeste . This may be a bit advanced for you but give it a go... But remember to ask an adult if it is OK for you to use scissors and paper glue... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I hope that glue is Copydex. Edited February 13, 2023 by boydeste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As youngsters our greatest fun was had by lighting our sparklers in the coal boiler in the kitchen then running outside to pretend we had a wand.

Those sparklers when lit had a lovely smell to them. I used to love going to the local shop to buy bangers as an under aged kid.. God we were stupid in those days... Light a banger, hold on to it for as long as you dare then throw it into the air. Boom. I'm surprised I've still got 3 fingers!!! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom. I'm surprised I've still got 3 fingers!!! Pretty sure that's what has caused tinnitus in my later years. I had stupidly picked up one that hadn't gone off. When I got it to about eye level the fuse sparked to life again. Just as I let it go it went off. Luckily only minor burns to my fingers, but my right ear rang for a couple of days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
