If you're a bit squirmey don't go here.
Do you think it met the Australian standards???? :vom:

It is far better to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even if chequered with failure, than to take rank with those who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, as they live in grey twilight that knows no victory nor defeat.

That was GRUESOME!!! I didn't realise brains were so big. I though they were about the size of a grapefruit. Matt, you shouldn't take any more study breaks. I can't work now. My hands are shaking.

that shits messed up. :shock:
what do you mean did it meet Australian standards? the accident? do you think ambulance crews hold up score cards? hehehe
i guess your really refering to the helmet, but at 150km/h if not less does it really mater? your PHucked anyway. with a capital PH.

oh forgot to say, do you reckon you'd get a smaller coffin if all your bits could fit in a smaller one. its a cheap way to die if anything.
i know that might sound sick, but matches the thread i guess.
party on!!

That's what I thought too, not that I've ever seen a live brain on the pavement. Mattyv - how big are they really?

That might be a question on your anatomy exam.... i.e.

54) How big is the average human brain:
Check all that apply

a. Depends on the size of your head.
b. 1350-1400cc.
c. Increases in size when used.
d. Very big, that's what my mum told me.
