An interesting article on the BBC; I can just imagine trying to introduce this into a game… "The man they came to know as "Wild" Cunningham gazed ruefully down the main street of his home town at a scene of devastation. Wrecked buildings. A flattened shop. Debris littered all around. And a smoke trail, like an accusing finger, leading right back to where he stood."

Used to work in a factory just outside Liverpool. Security guard told me a story… One quiet Sunday morning, they were offloading gas cylinders to premises in Lord Street – assume for a pub or something, don't recall. They were basically flipping the cylinders over the side of the lorry when the valve of one hit the edge of the lorry and sheared off. The result was gas shooting out, every action has an equal and opposite reaction… As a gas cylinder shoots down Lord Street like a torpedo… Don't know how true the story was, but sounds good. |
