Redfugee, in Why do it

This video detailing the event was more uncomfortable to watch than expected, if you really imagine what it must have been like… Horrible way to go. www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-TaF2DbaWw

volvoxvsmarla,

Honestly in some way he was lucky. There were people helping him and trying to rescue him and he could hear them directly and even see someone’s face at a point, they even gave him a radio to communicate to his wife waiting outside of the cave. He was comforted and had company and hope. A lot of other “explorers” or “adventurers” who die in freak accidents don’t have that much luck.

supercriticalcheese,

I don’t know if I would classify as lucky given his ultimate fate.

As a disabled dude, I laughed harder than you would think

dirtyjohn,

I bet some guy is going to feel offended “for you” and would not stop talking about it. XD

irmoz,

I can’t see anything offensive about it

Also disabled but don’t need a ramp because I’m not disabled that way and this is funny.

kira👾, @kirawontmiss

wanna know something crazy to prevent this? not exploring a cave

A_Random_Idiot, (edited )

Hell, explore the cave.

Just don’t go forcing your way into places you clearly cant fit shouldnt be in, like a fucking idiot.

That shit wasnt cute when you did it as a kid and force your parents to destroy the stair railing just to get your fat fucking head out between the bannisters, and its even less so now when you do it to the entire fucking earth.

brown567, in Plates

I think it’s the shadow cast onto the largest round plate by the lower divided round plate

Without that shadow, the plates could be face-down and illuminated from the left, but the shadow would only exist if the light source is on the right, so it snaps everything to conform to that

Siethron,
milicent_bystandr,

For me it was a bottom small one that snapped them to right-way-up. With practice and effort I can flip them upside down again, and confirm that I don’t struggle seeing the big one as upside down, but still struggle with some of the bottom ones.

I will never forgive my friend’s sister taping over several Transformers episodes to record a Madonna marathon from MTV…

That was in the 80s and I’m still sour.

Corkyskog, in Choose A or B

I think people are overestimating the ease of selling and market demand for rare fish. Most are likely not edible or desirable to be eaten.

explodicle,

Oh they’re dead fish? I was hoping to restore threatened and endangered species.

Corkyskog,
@Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works avatar

Who said that they are endangered? What if they are all new invasive fish, it didn’t say they already existed in nature, simply that they are rare. A one of a kind fish, is the rarest of fish.

explodicle,

In that case, I’ll recreate the works of Shakespeare.

NakariLexfortaine, in Fine. Just combine your powers without me.

Heart, while a terribly defined power, was shown to be able to influence animals to do your bidding in a comic.

This motherfucker coulda been rollin’ up on a tide of goddamn bears to these engagements. Shit yeah, gimme that ring, I’m headin’ to the closest zoo.

Pinklink,

I mean, we all have hearts don’t we? Who’s up for doing my bidding?

NakariLexfortaine,

Do you have a magic ring that amplifies your desire to compel others?

… Shit, now I don’t know if Ma-Ti needs to wield it, or throw it into the fires of Mordor.

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I imagine whoever was forced to do that comic tried to make it as non-sucky as possible.

NakariLexfortaine,

It was 90s Marvel. Each issue stank of desperation and cocaine, and it still only got 12 issues.

ROM got better treatment.

joyjoy,

He’s Aquaman, except he can control not just fish.

TheEntity,

Now that I think about it, any of the kids could do much more with their power. Fine, "heart" can control animals. But then we have earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis and whatever flamey shit fire can do. Basically if we drop the limitations of the user not willing to go all out, they all get buffed and "heart" still sounds underpowered. Unless it can control human minds too, now we're talking!

NakariLexfortaine,

I swear he did something to a guys mind to basically make himself “invisible” by compelling the enemy to not see him as he broke into their base.

Not a showy use, but still kinda clever and stupid.

mosiacmango, (edited )

There was a “power glove” episode that did this i think? It gave whichever ring bearer who had it like 100x power with their ring. Of course it was evil, and i want to say it was mai tai and the “heart” ring that won the day, but I can’t be assed to find the episode to make sure.

grue,

It’s like how people thought Air Bending was the weakest bending in Avatar, and then we watched a man suck the air out of someone’s lungs.

Do not mistake the act of reservation as weakness.

mosiacmango,

Every flamethrower motherfucker is a badass until they are on the floor, gasping and convulsing for air.

Snowpix,
@Snowpix@lemmy.ca avatar

Plus, fire requires oxygen. Their flames are useless if an airbender can just remove the oxygen from the air or suffocate the fire entirely.

c0mbatbag3l,
@c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

Air bending weak? Bro it’s the one bending style that doesn’t have an ingrained weakness.

No water? Fucked.

No Earth? Fucked.

Too cold/eclipse? Fucked.

No air? Well you’re already fucked for different reasons, so unless they develop space travel air benders will never lose their element.

swab148,
@swab148@lemm.ee avatar

But, it gets no boosts, like the moon or the sun being stronger. Earth also gets no boosts, but it’s balanced by offensive power, whereas Air is a defensive element.

As far as space travel goes, if any benders were involved at all, they’d have to be a team in close concert, because any one of them holds the power to kill everyone on the ship.

But, if they decide to continue the story in that way, I would be 100% down to watch that.

c0mbatbag3l,
@c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

Earth is balanced by having two advanced forms, fire and water only have lightning and blood bending respectively. Earth has metal and lava both, though even if a bender is capable of either they only get one.

I always felt that air kind of got ripped off by not having any kind of advanced form but occasionally they just learned to fly so I guess that’s pretty unique and powerful.

Witchfire, (edited )
@Witchfire@lemmy.world avatar

Water has healing (and ice, technically). Fire has combustion and also has lava. Also, blood bending is OP

I headcannon combustion bending as a mix of air and fire

c0mbatbag3l,
@c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

I always forget about combustion bending because of how rare it was.

Ice is just frozen water so idk if it should really count. Healing is a nice benefit but water is also the least likely element to be around unless you live near a major body of it.

Witchfire,
@Witchfire@lemmy.world avatar

Katara healed Aang while riding on Appa. I think they can manage.

c0mbatbag3l,
@c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

Weirdly defensive lol

Water bending is objectively the scarcest element and specifically why they settle at the poles where construction with ice is simple. That’s why they have so many benefits like healing and being overpowered with blood bending.

Air and fire are at will, and earth exists wherever humans live since we aren’t aquatic. Water definitely has to plan for not being near water, no one else really has to do that kind of a thing.

swab148,
@swab148@lemm.ee avatar

It’s been a minute, but I seem to remember Katara carrying a vial of water with her, maybe that’s standard practice among water benders.
