let's see you do it

Come and visit. Stand with a bit of a backwards lean and I will give you a push into a chair and you will fall over just like that. If the guy was even remotely braced, it would be far more impressive, but it just isnt that hard to push over someone in that stance. And if you watch the falling dude’s feet, he even gives a bit of a push off when the chair starts sliding back.

Considering Bruce Lee's body of work, including breaking things with his short punch, this gif just isn’t spectacular. LD

As a trained and certified building service worker, I can tell you that although that looks right, that's actually the incorrect way of using that piece of equipment.

Indeed. That is one really stupid individual

As a highly trained, and competent Infantry Officer, I can tell you that that was the correct manner of employment of an unsupervised E2.

I have been feeling curmudgeonly, yes. Not certain why.

An image from that elephant rescue story.

That also looks like a frighteningly thin elephant.

This is the strangest, yet oddly compelling, photo gallery I have seen in a while.

PBS has a doc about elephant families right now - highly recommended. Also the old guy's daughter is cute - she was raised around the elephants and now works with her father in an organization that is trying to keep them alive and happy.
