Lol
I was just telling my friend how many times I went to the emergency room at Walter Reed (back then it was Bethesda naval hospital l) and there are five on that list. Probably another five when I was sick.
I was a disaster as a child

God, even then if you are stupid enough to take a ride like that on a raft that needs to be a certain weight but doesn't meet it, and they don't know, I could never get that out of my mind.
I like amusement parks for the rush of adrenaline and they let you drink and take drugs. Since it is the year of Covid just got stuck on some bad disasters but I never have felt fear on a ride. But if I looked at this shit, there is no way in hell I would go on it.
Blind trust is stupid. Back then it was word of mouth but nowadays and for the better regulations are soooo much better. So here is a decapitation story.

Koods reminded me of having bright idea, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk 1984. Got out of my haunted mansion car and proceeded to get run over by said car. Good times for sure.
also at western festival, Elk Grove CA 80's
Brown recluse bit someone while riding the "Turbo". Her leg was purple and leaking puss before the ride even came to a stop. Good times.

Yeah. Stayed at a house when younger and seeing a black widow by my bed but didn't really bother me just from being naive and young.
Brown recluses, saw a whole documentary on them. Get the name. Seriously the last spider I would want to be bitten by. They try to make tartrantals scary in movies and shit but are basically harmless to my understanding.
But that one, shit. Would rather be stung by a scorpion or certain snakes than that. Amazing how something so small can do such damage to one's body.
