Cougar released from trap
Poor thing. Looks like they choked her out at one point. Better that than a broken neck, I suppose.
@Mordhaus I've heard tranquilizers aren't as prevalent as film and TV would have us believe, and is more complicated than we'd expect.

CNN Sympathizes with High School Rapists
Putting someone in prison isn't harsh enough. There should be a zero tolerance policy with automatic death penalty, which would need to be carried out efficiently. No more prisoners sitting on death row for years. No more ridiculously expensive lethal injections. If someone commits a crime and there's sufficient evidence of their guilt, they are killed quickly (broken neck, slit throat, cattle spike into the head, etc) and cremated. Boom, no more overpopulated prisons and no more wasted taxpayer money on feeding and sheltering criminals who will likely break the law again as soon as they are released.
Enforcing the law is always the trickiest part, since we don't have constant surveillance of every citizen. Therefore, in the absence of surveillance, we have to rely on fear. There's a reason why people don't think twice about speeding, jaywalking or littering. Not only are they very unlikely to get caught, the penalty when they do get caught is negligible. If you gave the death penalty for the above crimes, I guarantee people would think twice before committing them.
As for Norway, they certainly do have a comfortable prison system. If I were to go on a shooting rampage, I would definitely do it in Norway because their prisons don't seem that bad. In fact, their prisons are probably nicer than the living conditions of most criminals. The point of punishment is to deter people from breaking the law in the first place, not make them happier and less likely to do so after the fact.
Quote hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
Deterrence in the style of "let's make an example of a few of 'em" has a pretty poor track record. Look at the war on drugs - extremely harsh penalties for pot smokers - did not work - just filled up US prisions with people caught with a roach in their ashtray.
Russian Extreme Sport Mountain Ball Ends In Tragedy
OK, this has been posted twice as snuff and removed - then it keeps coming back.
It technically is snuff - even if you don't see the Graphic final impact.
"According to reddit comments this was fatal: Apparently one person died and the other is in critical condition."

"Mr Burakov was still alive when rescuers reached him, a long time later, suffering from a broken neck and spine, however he died on the way to the hospital.
Lucky to survive, his companion Mr Shcherbov was hospitalised with concussion and multiple lacerations to the head and body.

Wheelchair Rugby Players are ROUGH!
Broken sternum - but nothing serious!
(I've broken my sternum and I know what that feels like - I'd consider it serious)
But nothing I suppose to a broken neck!
Alaskan Husky Hamster Wheel
Personally, I got the impression the leash is there to STOP the dog from running too long.
>> ^waynef100:
funny i was thinking she used the leash to keep the dog safe. so if the dog tripped it wouldnt suddenly get spun into that wheel at the top.>> ^critical_d:
Hmmm...looks like an accident waiting to happen. That leash gets snagged on the pulley and the poor pup will get a broken neck.
I know how huskies love to run but definitely do this minus the collar and leash.

Can't hit people when you got a broken neck.
Just sayin'
Virtusphere - Full Body Immersion Virtual Reality
Probably the highest risk of an IRL broken neck you can attain while playing FPS.
The Best Fight Scene EVAR!
Look closely- you can see trip wire used to fell the horses. At least two broken necks and a broken leg from what I can see.
This video sucks. Serious animal cruelty.
Constitution gives us the right to travel

First, the current legal limit is ridiculously low. Anyone with a BAC of 0.08% isn't posing a threat to anyone, and it's simply a way to generate income for the state.
I tend to agree, but I haven't looked into the studies on this subject. It does appear too low currently.
Secondly, you're supposing the roads have to be a guaranteed safe environment.
Not really, I want a reasonable expectation that the other drivers on the road at least have the physical ability to operate a vehicle safely. Good drivers do have accidents because of mistakes, so until we automate our roadways there will be accidents (we could do it fairly soon, but it will take longer due to regulations and public support). If someone has too much alcohol in their system then they do not have that ability to be safe.
Let's take your grandmother for instance. As long as she doesn't harm anyone, I think she should be able to drive as long as she feels able. Why? Because your solution is she MAY hurt someone or herself because she's getting old and can barely see over the hood of her car.
She nearly ran over me twice and didn't realize it until I told her. She can't read road signs, nor can she see cars at enough distance to safely pull out onto a road. Several years back she did pull out in front of someone, resulting in a broken neck (she recovered). It wasn't until two years later that the DMV refused to renew her license. Unfortunately confidence is no measure of competence or correctness.
I don't think roads can be made completely safe while humans are controlling multi-ton high-speed machines, but we can remove the most obvious risks.
Third, once you open the door to government restrictions where do they end?
They end where we decide. It isn't "all or nothing". It's illegal to intentionally spread false information about others, but we aren't prohibited from criticizing the government or established religion. We can't have rocket launchers or WMDs, but we can have hunting rifles.
Government restrictions don't always move in one direction either. Certain people weren't allowed to vote in the past, but now they can. Marijuana is illegal, but I doubt it will always be that way.
Having no restrictions is just as extreme as having absolute restrictions... there is a middle ground where it is helpful but not oppressive. I think most speed limits are too low, but I can still get to my destination. Our system could use a lot of improvement, but I don't think driver licenses and vehicle registrations are terrible things.
Two guys with HUGE balls
^ I really do think this could be a new sport. I certainly want to try it. Although there might be a lot of broken necks, so maybe not.
Exercise Ball Mayhem
I see broken necks. Stunning they didn't hurt themselves seriously (just hope they didn't). But I was sure I had seen this before on VS.
