You all need to watch some decent comedy, that report should be filed under "mildly amusing" at best.

Good point!

Wet charge. There was oil, water, or organic material in the metal. Most foundries preheat the metal to burn it off.

[Preezy]

Seems perfectly fine and safe.

[Saint of Killers]

Apparently it's a regular occurrence in foundries! I wonder if that includes the bucket kerploding like that? Would be cool to think they had yard full of spares...

120m tall statue in Japan looks otherworldly

[Saint of Killers]

Wow. This is it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sendai_Daikannon

And it's only the 6th-tallest statue in the world. Madness

[Saint of Killers]

It's still cool, but the shot employs forced perspective trickery. Boo!

[Victor Mildew]

That photo is using foreshortening with a combination of zoom and the lens type, so it makes the statue look a lot larger than it really is. It's why that crazy steep bridge you see sometimes looks like that, as in reality it wouldn't appear steep like that. Think of the classic jaws beach zoom, like that.

[Saint of Killers]

I love that zoom effect in movies It does things to me.

It's called a dolly zoom. So simple really but it works so well.

I love that shot in fellowship, no explanation, just these massive statues leaving you to wonder what the story behind them is, then you just move on I've been to the river that was used for that shot, and aside from the statues not being there of course, it was far far shallower.
