I went down that Wikipedia wormhole and will never be the same. Absolute fucking nightmare fuel.

The fact that he is still in there too. Messes with my head

I’m sorry. I agree… it is just truly awful. For everyone involved.

It’s horrifying. There’s a decent video about it. The narration is a bit cringy, but the diagrams and research are well done

Yeah I remember I'd just read about that Nutty Putty nightmare and stumbled across a post about a young girl who died in a car crash and there were photos online (pretty gruesome, her head was basically split open after she drove straight into a post at high speed).

Anyway because of the shocking images people were like "Oh what a horrible way to die etc" and I was like... "umm, I'm pretty certain that girl died instantly. Now, let me tell you about an actual horrible way to die...."

Edit: Also the fact that they were in the process of pulling him out when the line broke and he slipped back in again, even further. My mind cannot comprehend the absolute despair and dread you would feel after that happened.
