the boys threw blue Humbrol modelling paint, which they had shoplifted earlier,
into Bulger's left eye. They kicked and stomped on him, and threw bricks
and stones at him. Batteries were placed in Bulger's mouth. Police believed
some batteries may have been inserted into his anus, although none were
found there. Finally, a 22-pound, "10.0 kg" iron bar,
described in court as a railway fishplate, was dropped on him. Bulger suffered
ten skull fractures as a result of the iron bar striking his head. Dr. Alan

| Two engineers died when the windmill they were working on caught fire.
This happened on 29 of October in the Netherlands, "in Ooltgensplaat
to be more precise". A crew of four was conducting routine maintenance
to the 67 meter high turbine. They were in a gondola next to the turbine
when a fire broke out. The fire quickly engulfed the only escape route the
stairs in the shaft, trapping two of the maintenance crew on top of the
turbine. One of them jumped down and was found in a field next to the turbine.
The other victim was found by a special firefighter team that ascended the
turbine when the fire died down a bit. The cause of the fire is unknown,
but is believed to be a short circuit. Firefighters are fairly powerless
to do anything to fight fires on wind turbines, and due to high costs maintenance
crews have limited means and training to escape an emergency situation.

| In 1989 at a Liverpool v. Nottingham Forest football game, there was
an influx of Liverpool spectators due to traffic build-up. Thousands arrived
late to the kick-off and began rushing into a small tunnel that led to the
seating. Police organization played a crucial role in controlling the crowd.
As people flooded the seating, they were unaware that there were already
too many fans and pressure began building up, creating a crush in the front
rows against a fence erected to keep fans off the pitch. It was virtually
impossible to move or breath at one point, and 96 fans were killed by asphyxiation
or being trampled, as well as an additional 700 plus injuries. |

| Omayra Sanchez Garzon was a Colombian girl killed in Armero, department
of Tolima, by the 1985 eruption of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano, when she
was 13 years old. Volcanic debris mixed with ice to form massive lahars,
volcanically induced mudslides, landslides, and debris flows, that rushed
into the river valleys below the mountain, killing nearly 25,000 people
and destroying Armero and 13 other villages. After a lahar demolished her
home, Sanchez became pinned beneath the debris of her house. She remained
trapped in water for three days. Her plight was documented as she descended
from calmness into agony. Her courage and dignity touched journalists and
relief workers, who put great efforts into comforting her. After 55 hours
of struggling, she died, likely as a result of either gangrene or hypothermia.
Her death highlighted the failure of officials to respond promptly to the
threat of the volcano, contrasted with the efforts of volunteer rescue workers
to reach and treat trapped victims, despite a dearth of supplies and equipment.

| On May Day, just after leaving her fiance, 23-year-old Evelyn McHale
wrote a note. "He is much better off without me I wouldn't make
a good wife for anybody." She went to the observation platform
of the Empire State Building. Then she jumped. In her desperate determination,
she leaped clear of the setbacks and hit a United Nations limousine parked
at the curb. Across the street photography student Robert Wiles heard an
explosive crash. Just four minutes after Evelyn McHale's death, Wiles got
this picture of death's violence and its composure. The serenity of McHale's
body amidst the crumpled wreckage it caused is astounding. |

| This is the photo of Travis Alexander right before Jodi Arias murdered
him. She showed up, they fooled around, hopped in the shower where she took

after. It's unsettling to see someones last moment captured. |

| This picture shows a bunch of friends and I. Halfway through the night
we decided to take a group picture. Let it be known that everyone at this
party knew each others full names and it was at a low-key type place. Anyways,
if you look closely, in the far right of the picture, shows a head peeping
in. No one knows who this person is and no one can recall seeing him from
the night before. We figured this out once it was uploaded to FB and got
a better look at the picture. It still does give me the chills. |
