YocumRidge Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 "Spontaneous pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, and pneumopericardium in a 16-year-old drug-abusing motorcyclist surrounded by a pack of coyotes." - Thats a real science paper. Here's da proof: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2798277 Just to think of it, what if you are surrounded by coyotes on a bike and you are also high? You wouldn't have a clue what could happen to you, would you?! Now you KNOW and knowledge, as they say, is power (not in the US Congress, though). Quote
olyclimber Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 well good to know! I would like to see the same study done with an older person though, as I'm no longer 16 (physically, mental doesn't count) and I'm sure the variables change quite a bit. Quote
