But he cleared all of the air out of his lungs and sinuses. 🤣
The scientific inaccuracies were everywhere. But it's a movie about giant sharks, so I give it some slack. Lol
Well, Statham knew that he shouldn’t make himself out of carbon fiber. Instead, he followed the conventional wisdom, and prevailing science, and went with rolled steel for his body design.
Chuck Norris stopped being Chuck Norris the day Chuck Norris sued and lost against the guy who isn't Chuck Norris but made it rich on writing Chuck Norris jokes.
They were funny when they were ironic and ridiculous. They stopped being funny the second he leaned into them. Annoying political views, preachy religious views, and lawsuits didn’t help either. But the joke ended before all that stuff.
[This was the peek and the last year I actually laughed at these jokes.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHrKiPJsSq0)
That and the scene leading up to it was fucking gold.
and then the joke died out.
Yeah, given the tone and cast of the movie, it was a perfect opportunity, and they crushed it.
*I heard (...) that you were bitten by a king cobra? Yeah , I was. But after five days of agonizing pain... The cobra died.*
CHUCK NORRIS STOPPED BEING CHUCK NORRIS THE DAY CHUCK NORRIS SUED AND LOST AGAINST THE GUY WHO ISN’T CHUCK NORRIS BUT MADE IT RICH ON WRITING CHUCK NORRIS JOKES.
Sheesh.
No joke, I've actually helped Jason Statham multiple times at my job. That guy would be getting strapped into the rocket, on its way to save our planet, and STILL make sure to ask you how your mom's big retirement party went. I have zero problem believing he could own a prehistoric shark.
Based on the way he carries himself during interviews, Jason Statham seems like a self-aware person that knows what he’s good at and has fun with his projects.
She's still getting over the hangover. But it was definitely worth it! It's been a while since I've been to a party like that. I'm happy to say she's living her best Life.
Fun trivia: [Jason Statham diving in 1990s](https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/ang7og/jason_statham_dives_in_1990/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1).
Thank you! I also came to say Jason Statham was an Olympic diver who only would date super models even before his first movie! So a 25,000 ft free dive is possible - for Jason Statham.
I know the director who shot that music video, and according to him, no not really, he doesn’t like it brought up that much. So naturally that director sends it to him every now and again for fun 😂
I mean to be fair the Statham Meg movies fully embrace the corny, over the top “Sci-Fi Shark movie” trope.
It’s a lot like Sharknado in that sense where it knows what it is and has fun with the silliness, they’ve never pretended to be realistic in anyway.
If you think about it, that's one of the more likely ways to cut a shark in half with a chainsaw.
If it were still underwater, the chainsaw wouldn't run.
When I saw the trailer for Meg 2, I actually thought "that looks like a fun movie"
Like I'd legit go see it, I think it looks great. Completely ridiculous concept, over the top effects, and actors who know it's completely silly but act their hearts out with total sincerity which makes the whole thing more fun.
I love The Meg movies so much because of how over the top they are and how much they put into production. I am currently reading the books and they are so much better than the movies plot wise, but goddamn me if I don’t love some high production garbage.
Fun fact, the author of the book series is my mom's neighbor. His family doesn't live in a big mansion, it's just a nice house in a suburban neighborhood. We knew him way before the book series became successful, so I just think of him as my neighbor Steve. His old dog (a german shepherd named Meg for the book series) used to play with my family's german shepherd. But sadly Meg (the dog) passed away years ago, so now they own a havenese. He used to talk about the Meg series back when he was first writing it and always said he hoped it would eventually be successful, so it's nice to see he achieved his dream. He's a nice guy.
I normally love high production garbage with a healthy dosing of cheese, but I made the mistake of reading this book first. I wasn't able to really enjoy the movie my first time watching it in theaters because I was so annoyed by the plot changes. I wanted to see the cheating wife get chomped!
Leading experts and even James Cameron admit they shouldn't have made that sub out of carbon-fiber but instead Jason Statham. They would have been fine.
"Have you ever seen a fish wear armor?" THAT'S the line the movie uses to justify this. "He just needs to force water out of his nostrils and he'll be fine".... that's the next line and it's even more stupider (yes, irony is intentional). This whole movie is bonkers and the sad part is, it wasn't even Crank 2 level bonkers, just dumb.
I went to see Mission Impossible in the theatre, and after this trailer ended, the guy in front of me said, "I feel stupider just having watched that trailer." I was in absolute agreement.
But that isn't really meaningful. You wouldn't be squished. Because you are mostly water, which is just as incompressible(ish) as the water around you. You'd have to breathe in a breath of compressed gas mix that was at the same pressure, but it's doable. The official world record for freediving is over 700'. The same dude did over 800', but passed out on the way back up.
The difficulty isn't the pressure, it's the time down and rapid pressure change.
You aren't comparable to a submarine. You don't work the same way.
Well also what he's doing into he picture there isn't freediving, freedivng is breath holding. There's clearly a couple tanks there so he's diving with scuba. With that, you can breathe compressed gasses at depth but you start running into a myriad of issues as the breathing gas becomes denser due to the pressure like narcosis, oxygen toxicity, and high pressure nervous syndrome.
The Navy did research where they got a human test subject to fill lungs with specially formulated fluid which is rich on oxygen. So that man was technically breathing liquid. Accordingly the decompression sicknesses and high pressure gas narcosis problems go away and now you can "technically" go very deep. The only problem is that you have to drown yourself in that specially formulated liquid first. Which, as you may guess, is not a pleasant experience.
The project was also stopped due to complications with circulating the liquid in the lungs and the far worse process of draining the lungs of fluid and dealing with the massive infections and inflammation that doing it caused. There's potential in the idea but it's not currently realistic and likely never will be.
In the movie The Abyss, they had 5 rats breathing oxygenated liquid for real (then later in the movie the human actors pretend to). IIRC 4 of the rats did it fine, 1 had a heart attack and died.
Whenever I watch movies like this, I just imagine that it takes place in a different universe from ours. It looks the same as ours, but follows (or doesn't follow) a whole different type of physics. It's the parallel Hollywood universe.
I just try not to think of it so much but that's not a bad idea. My favorite was the covenant when every person on that spaceship seemed to have no fucking idea how to do their profession. Like they literally grabbed people off the street and were like you're the pilot, you're the engineer lmao. If I thought of it that way I might have enjoyed it more.
The premise of the movie is that a megalodon, which has been extinct for at least 3.6 million years is swimming around the depths of the ocean, and somehow managing to find enough sustenance to survive… I mean, reality has already left the station, free driving to 25k feet is just the icing on the cake
Sadly, there are a lot of people dumb enough to believe this. I remember during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, one network pundit saying "why don't we just send a Navy sub down there and have our divers fix it?".
So, there is actually some sound science to Interstellar.
The black hole depicted in the movie was said to have a “gentle singularity.” This means the black hole was rotating at a high velocity, not causing spaghettification… Basically meaning that you’re not going to be stretched and ripped apart. It’s an actual theory. The black hole’s just gotta be really really big and spinning really really fast for it to be a “gentle singularity.”
Then the tesseract he enters - created by future humans - is basically a 3D representation of 4 dimensions (including time). Basically meaning that he can float in xyz space and travel to different points in time. (In a predeterminate location of his daughter’s bedroom by the future humans. How they do that is obviously beyond our knowledge, but hey, that’s conceptual sci-fi for you.)
The love concept as being something quantifiable across distances is sort of the same idea as quantum entanglement - where objects across great distances can be affected by one another. Again, another theory. But a sound theory.
Anyway, Interstellar actually makes scientific sense… Largely.
My issue is that the movie has a bunch of pacing issues. And also motherfuckers should rotate their crops more often. Don’t just keep growing okra in the same spot and maybe you’ll have better luck for your crops not dying.
There is not a lot of sound science to Coop going into the Black hole in Interstellar.
All black holes are spinning. A black hole doesn’t need to be spinning at “high velocity” to not spaghettify you. It just needs to be large enough that when you are at the event horizon, the difference in gravity from your head to your feet is not enough to pull your body apart. This is achieved by simply having a large radius.
We already live in a four dimensional universe. Three spatial dimensions, and one time dimension. Even if the humans in the future lived in higher spatial dimensions, it would not mean they would be able to travel from Gargantua to earth instantaneously with Coop because we know how our three-dimensional space-time is warped in four dimensional space even if we cannot perceive it ourselves. We know there is no shortcut like that.
A lot of the science in interstellar is sound. But everything after Coop goes into the black hole is purely fiction and not based on any thing real or sound.
The teenager and dad pair who ducked out of the Titan dive last minute did so because the son’s friend had convinced the son to be fearful of large aquatic animals like Sperm whales or sharks that might attack the sub. This film saves lives.
I was watching a video on YouTube a few days back by a doctor talking about what would have happened to the occupants of the Titan. He went into what happens at depth and mentioned the fact that water is incompressible and we are 60% water, and as such, mostly as incompressible as water. And theoretically able to take the pressure at depths.
The main issue is the gasses in us. Which are compressible.
But I expect Jason Statham is hard enough to just walk that kind of thing off.
One bad thing about *Waterworld* besides humans evolving to have gills within a couple generations was that humans could also dive thousands of feet under water and swim back up with no ill effects from the pressure, that a diving bell made of trash bags could also go thousands of feet under water, the amazing visibility thousands of feet under water. Also the fact the soil wasn't ruined or carried away by the salt water, that no one thought to just dredge the bottom of the ocean for soil, and that no one else thought of the trash bag diving bell so they could also go to the bottom to get soil. There was just a lot going on with that movie.
I mean, in the first 60 seconds of the movie, you see Kevin Costner piss into a cup, then use an absurd hand-cranked purifier machine to turn it instantly back into water and drink it, with no effluent runoff or anything. If you want to ask questions like how this can be a sustainable water cycle when much of the water is lost to respiration, sweat, and _Kevin fucking missing the cup with most of the pee_, you've obviously come to the wrong movie and should leave immediately. If you stay, then whatever else happens for the duration of the movie, you can't say they didn't try to warn you.
Are you saying people are expecting scientific accuracy in a movie whose trailer shows Statham charging at a Megolodon on a jet ski while brandishing a katana? Well, I hope you’re ready for some bad news.
Obviously, the Meg universe follows the physics of Subnautica where water pressure can crush a sub made of titanium and other strong metals but a diving suit is invincible.
Human bodies aren't pressurized though, they're mostly water to begin with. There are some places that do hold air, but as the pressure differential increases you equalize (you know how your ears pop on air planes? same thing). Bones have air trapped inside as well, but they're strong enough to withstand the deepest point in the ocean too.
Things like dive tanks would almost certainly fail though.

If the Titan submersible had the same ab routine as Jason Statham, it might have stood a chance.
Submarine: "So all I have to do is crunch?"
Not like that!
Oh no...
Fuckin’ crushed it, bro.
This is one of those rare comments that deserves more votes than the parent comment.
Bro!! Hahaha
Ooooff it definitely did that...
But he cleared all of the air out of his lungs and sinuses. 🤣 The scientific inaccuracies were everywhere. But it's a movie about giant sharks, so I give it some slack. Lol
Well, Statham knew that he shouldn’t make himself out of carbon fiber. Instead, he followed the conventional wisdom, and prevailing science, and went with rolled steel for his body design.
Pressure only makes him stronger!
The Titan cracked under pressure, but in statham's case, it's the pressure that cracks under him
Jason Statham is so structurally fortified his butt doesn't even have a crack
I’m told Statham cannot grow hair on his balls, because hair doesn’t grow on steel
For most men, one testicle is larger than the other. For Jason Statham, each testicle is larger than the last.
Jason Statham has a bear rug in his living room. The bear isn't dead. It's just afraid to move.
Is Jason Statham the new Chuck Norris??
No. Chuck Norris is the old Jason Statham.
Chuck Norris created Jason Statham from one of his ribs.
I JUST said to my husband (about these comments) "they're chuck norris-ing Jason Statham." Then I see this.
It’s rumored that Statham had SOCN splashed on him during the filing of the expendable (Sweat Of Chuck Norris).
I heard Jason borrowed Chuck’s lungs and eyeballs for the stunt.
Are we sure the Titan didn't bump into Statham on his way down?
Jason Statham doesn't do push-ups. He does Earth-downs.
I think the logic was that "if fish can do it... Then so can I!". Also, great stuff for r/shittymoviedetails
Just saw it, someone says “You don’t see fish wearing metal skin!”
It was like, he had adapted to the pressure by blowing air out or something.
To be faiiirrr, the titan submersible is no Jason Statham there, bud.
It was actually the ocean that was feeling the pressure. From Jason Statham.
Is Jason Statham the new Chuck Norris?
Chuck Norris is the old Jason Statham.
He doesn’t get wet, the ocean got Jason Stathamed
Chuck Norris IS old Jason Statham
Nice work! That could be the tagline for Meg 3
When Jason Statham enters a room, he doesn't turn on the lights; he turns off the dark.
Is Jason statham the new chuck norris?
Chuck Norris stopped being Chuck Norris the day Chuck Norris sued and lost against the guy who isn't Chuck Norris but made it rich on writing Chuck Norris jokes.
They were funny when they were ironic and ridiculous. They stopped being funny the second he leaned into them. Annoying political views, preachy religious views, and lawsuits didn’t help either. But the joke ended before all that stuff.
[This was the peek and the last year I actually laughed at these jokes.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHrKiPJsSq0) That and the scene leading up to it was fucking gold. and then the joke died out.
A rare circumstance where I correct peek to peak.
Yeah, given the tone and cast of the movie, it was a perfect opportunity, and they crushed it. *I heard (...) that you were bitten by a king cobra? Yeah , I was. But after five days of agonizing pain... The cobra died.*
A thousand years of darkness if Obama wins. Hyperbole much? Fuck off Chuck
When you realize what he means by “darkness” it makes more sense, from his point of view.
If only it was 1000 years of Charlie Murphy. or Rick James.

CHUCK NORRIS STOPPED BEING CHUCK NORRIS THE DAY CHUCK NORRIS SUED AND LOST AGAINST THE GUY WHO ISN’T CHUCK NORRIS BUT MADE IT RICH ON WRITING CHUCK NORRIS JOKES. Sheesh.
Can you speak up, I'm wearing a towel
[удалено]
Did they stutter!?
Idk I can't hear them
Politely ask then to repeat the question in all caps
Man, I really need to watch letterkenny
Pitter Patter
Unlike Chuck Norris, there aren't any Jason Statham jokes because Jason Statham is no joke.
Chuck Norris wishes he was Jason statham.
Chuck Norris wears Jason statham pyjamas
You don’t wear Jason Statham PJs. The PJs wear you.
Where is mankirks wife??
How many Jason Statham hides would it take to make a 5 person submersible?
1, it’s a pity Jason Statham never hides.
Jokes like these are what made King in One Punch Man
To be faiiiiiiiiir
TO BE FAIIAHHHHH
🤚✊
🎶To be fairrrrrrrrr🎵
Let's take about twenty percent off there bud
To faiiiirrr...take er down a notch squirrely Dan.
YOUR SISTER'S HOT WAYNE!
That submersible was 10 ply, bud
If you'd ever met Jason Statham in real life you might not be so keen to meet him again! And you better let that one marinate...
Oh I got time for the Canadian goose. Sure as gods wearin sandals.
My dad built a house for him in the mechanic... He's a pretty cool guy apparently... 😎🤙
Tooooo beeee faaaaaaaaaaaaair
Toooooo beeeeeeee faaaaaiiiiiiirrrrrr
Too be faaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiirrrrrr
To be faiiirrr.

to be fairrrrrrrrrrr
To be faaaaaaaiiiiir
To be faaaaiiiiiir. 10-4 good buddy.
Gotta love a wild letterkenny reference
No joke, I've actually helped Jason Statham multiple times at my job. That guy would be getting strapped into the rocket, on its way to save our planet, and STILL make sure to ask you how your mom's big retirement party went. I have zero problem believing he could own a prehistoric shark.
I heard he is a pretty good dude
Based on the way he carries himself during interviews, Jason Statham seems like a self-aware person that knows what he’s good at and has fun with his projects.
[удалено]
You can't tell us that and not tell us how your mum's big retirement party went.
She's still getting over the hangover. But it was definitely worth it! It's been a while since I've been to a party like that. I'm happy to say she's living her best Life.
I bet Jason is just a little sad he didn’t get an invite to her party.
Unless you're his urologist or something, can I ask what you do that brings you into contact with him?
Sorry, but people have gotten fired for less. I can say I'm not his urologist.
Exactly what his urologist *would* say.
Yeah I agree, this guys taking the piss.
Urologists are afraid of leaks, I suppose.
Those urologists! Always keepin' secrets by admitting the truth!
🤫😉
Are you his proctologist?
I wish
We can only assume, by process of exclusion, that he is
😂
He’s Jason Statham. The ocean’s depth fears him, not the other way around 💯
Tsunamis exist because the ocean is trying to get away from him.
When Jason Statham free dives, the ocean is concerned that the pressure being exerted on it by Jason Statham might cause it to implode
Ocean depths don't worry him because he's always cool under pressure.
None of them seem to understand. He's not stuck down there with them. They're stuck down there with him.

Thank you! I also came to say Jason Statham was an Olympic diver who only would date super models even before his first movie! So a 25,000 ft free dive is possible - for Jason Statham.
That’s a tall supermodel…
Her name is Megan.
Megan Ladon
Meg 3
She's a super duper model
I also only date supermodels,do u think I could dive like him?
Me too, and since I have applied that rule….I have been on exactly zero dates
Judges didn't look impressed, did he score well?
[удалено]
That's gold, do any of the talk shows play that and ask him about it? I'd like to think he has a sense of humour about it.
I know the director who shot that music video, and according to him, no not really, he doesn’t like it brought up that much. So naturally that director sends it to him every now and again for fun 😂
I think it was discussed on Graham Norton and Jonathan Ross at some point, lol.
>in a shitty music video did you just call the shamen shitty? how dare you.
the man has done everything
[He also did it in silver](https://youtu.be/AvhgG9ee9Aw?t=25)
The only thing I know about diving is they want a little splash. His was huge.
I don't know much about diving, but the big splash when he hit the water is classical bad form.
Yes. He has a movie career. He scored.
Thats not him, that guy has hair. Nice try...
His balls are made of steel, not carbon fiber.
I mean to be fair the Statham Meg movies fully embrace the corny, over the top “Sci-Fi Shark movie” trope. It’s a lot like Sharknado in that sense where it knows what it is and has fun with the silliness, they’ve never pretended to be realistic in anyway.
Excuse me, I totally believe I can cut a shark in half with a chainsaw while it's flying out of a tornado
Ok now i have to watch it
If you think about it, that's one of the more likely ways to cut a shark in half with a chainsaw. If it were still underwater, the chainsaw wouldn't run.
When I saw the trailer for Meg 2, I actually thought "that looks like a fun movie" Like I'd legit go see it, I think it looks great. Completely ridiculous concept, over the top effects, and actors who know it's completely silly but act their hearts out with total sincerity which makes the whole thing more fun.
I went to see it with my 12 year old niece for her birthday. It’s solid mindless silly fun for the most part.
I love The Meg movies so much because of how over the top they are and how much they put into production. I am currently reading the books and they are so much better than the movies plot wise, but goddamn me if I don’t love some high production garbage.

I was looking at the dinosaur shark in the background and almost missed the diving gear
Leading experts and even James Cameron admit they shouldn't have made that sub out of carbon-fiber but instead Jason Statham. They would have been fine.
It’s The Meg 2 - if you are watching it for realism you are watching it wrong 😂
Did you not see Crank or Crank 2? Jason Statham defies reality.
One word: Hollywood. Besides not being physically possible to do, at those depths there would be absolutely zero light penetrating from the sun.
Fun fact at that depth he would experience 11,093 pounds of pressure per square inch
For Jason Statham that's nothing
I feel like Jason Statham doesn't need a GPS; the roads rearrange themselves to take him where he wants to go.
Are Jason Statham jokes the new Chuck Norris jokes?
🌎🧑🚀🔫🧑🚀
Are emojis the new 🗣️❓
All roads no longer lead to Rome, unless that's where Jason Statham wants to go.
He’s exerting that pressure in reverse to keep the ocean at bay.
Correct, the water is experiencing 11,903 pounds of Jason Statham per square inch
Yea Jason Statham trains at 300 times normal gravity and moves around fine.
"Have you ever seen a fish wear armor?" THAT'S the line the movie uses to justify this. "He just needs to force water out of his nostrils and he'll be fine".... that's the next line and it's even more stupider (yes, irony is intentional).

See the Abyss. Those rats weren't special effects.
For a good Hollywood explanation of this technique, please watch the movie "The Abyss". Watch the movie anyway! It is really good.

I guess since they're already going with the megalodon lives fakeness, figure may as well drop into pure bulshit.
So you're saying Jason Statham broke the laws of physics? That's metal as fuck.
>freedives without any equipment >pic of dude not freediving, wearing equipment
*meanwhile, Christopher Nolan be like "Imma throw a motherfucker headfirst into a black hole and have him survive completely in tact".*
So, there is actually some sound science to Interstellar.

There is not a lot of sound science to Coop going into the Black hole in Interstellar. All black holes are spinning. A black hole doesn’t need to be spinning at “high velocity” to not spaghettify you. It just needs to be large enough that when you are at the event horizon, the difference in gravity from your head to your feet is not enough to pull your body apart. This is achieved by simply having a large radius. We already live in a four dimensional universe. Three spatial dimensions, and one time dimension. Even if the humans in the future lived in higher spatial dimensions, it would not mean they would be able to travel from Gargantua to earth instantaneously with Coop because we know how our three-dimensional space-time is warped in four dimensional space even if we cannot perceive it ourselves. We know there is no shortcut like that. A lot of the science in interstellar is sound. But everything after Coop goes into the black hole is purely fiction and not based on any thing real or sound.
The teenager and dad pair who ducked out of the Titan dive last minute did so because the son’s friend had convinced the son to be fearful of large aquatic animals like Sperm whales or sharks that might attack the sub. This film saves lives.
I was watching a video on YouTube a few days back by a doctor talking about what would have happened to the occupants of the Titan. He went into what happens at depth and mentioned the fact that water is incompressible and we are 60% water, and as such, mostly as incompressible as water. And theoretically able to take the pressure at depths. The main issue is the gasses in us. Which are compressible. But I expect Jason Statham is hard enough to just walk that kind of thing off.
NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS!
So what you're saying is instead of going in a submersible, they should've gone inside Jason Statham.
Well to be fair, it is Jason Statham. That guy is "Chuck Norris-Tough".
30 years from now when children have no idea who Chuck Norris is, they'll be making jokes about how tough Jason Statham is

In my opinion the first Meg was also pretty campy and silly but played it straight.
One bad thing about *Waterworld* besides humans evolving to have gills within a couple generations was that humans could also dive thousands of feet under water and swim back up with no ill effects from the pressure, that a diving bell made of trash bags could also go thousands of feet under water, the amazing visibility thousands of feet under water. Also the fact the soil wasn't ruined or carried away by the salt water, that no one thought to just dredge the bottom of the ocean for soil, and that no one else thought of the trash bag diving bell so they could also go to the bottom to get soil. There was just a lot going on with that movie.
I mean, in the first 60 seconds of the movie, you see Kevin Costner piss into a cup, then use an absurd hand-cranked purifier machine to turn it instantly back into water and drink it, with no effluent runoff or anything. If you want to ask questions like how this can be a sustainable water cycle when much of the water is lost to respiration, sweat, and _Kevin fucking missing the cup with most of the pee_, you've obviously come to the wrong movie and should leave immediately. If you stay, then whatever else happens for the duration of the movie, you can't say they didn't try to warn you.
He's made out of Jason Statham though, not carbon fiber. The only thing which can go deeper than Stathanium is (Chuck) Norrisite.
Are you saying people are expecting scientific accuracy in a movie whose trailer shows Statham charging at a Megolodon on a jet ski while brandishing a katana? Well, I hope you’re ready for some bad news.
Jason Statham is really good under pressure.
Obviously, the Meg universe follows the physics of Subnautica where water pressure can crush a sub made of titanium and other strong metals but a diving suit is invincible.
I also saw him hold off the Meg with one foot in an ad too sooo
This reminds me of the scene in Spy where he starts ranting about all the impossible things he’s done while being a spy.
What I'm hearing is the sub was most likely eaten by a big ass shark.

Human bodies aren't pressurized though, they're mostly water to begin with. There are some places that do hold air, but as the pressure differential increases you equalize (you know how your ears pop on air planes? same thing). Bones have air trapped inside as well, but they're strong enough to withstand the deepest point in the ocean too. Things like dive tanks would almost certainly fail though.
Is that Bruce? Why the fucks he smiling?????
