I dunno. But I do know if I ever come across a dead whale and somebody is hacking away at it to stand WAY back, and have my video out!

Jar Heads and a dead whale. What could go wrong?

I'll bet we could drop a quarter-ton blob of whale goo squarely on the roof of the news van a quarter mile away on the shoulder of I-5 with one exquisitely-tailored demo shot.

Love that show.

The other night they showed a rerun about binary explosives. They wondered if a car crash would set them off. For the over the top finale they put a pickup truck on a rail and launched into the back of a car at over 300 miles per hour. (The car had binary explosives in the trunk.) For the control, they blew up a car, just so they could compare and contrast.

Anyway, both of the vehicles disintegrated, but there was no explosion. I laughed so hard I almost wet myself.

When I see stuff like that gif, I’m glad it’s not in Smell-O-Vision.

Are you kidding? The hydrogen sulfide and methane will no doubt cause a spectacular display of flying whale blubber.

I like it!
