Hier hat mal jemand den fast schon legendären Beitrag von #Trump zum Thema Elektroboote und Haie in eine etwas andere Umgebung verpflanzt. (Der Auszug aus der Trump-Rede ist 100 % echt, von einer Kundgebung im Juni in Las Vegas!)
Also, ich mein, diese brisante Thematik, ich glaube nicht, dass sich Kamala #Harris da ran traut.

WHY

"must be because of M.I.T., my relationship with M.I.T., very smart, I say, what would happen if the boat sank from its weight, and you have this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery is now underwater and there's a shark that's approximately 10 yards over there ... by the way, a lot of shark attacks lately,"

"Do I get #electrocuted or do I jump over by the #shark?'

Very smart, this #Trump

Okay, da konnte Sarah Cooper nicht widerstehen und musste ihre "How to"-Reihe um diese Perle ergänzen:

"So there's a shark 10 yards away from the boat, 10 yards or here, do I get electrocuted if the boat is sinking?"

Oregon winter storm: Teen recounts saving baby after she saw 3 people electrocuted

An Oregon teen who saved a baby during an ice storm in Portland is being praised for her heroism. Majiah Washington shared her story at a news conference Thursday. The 18-year-old said she noticed a flash outside of her home Wednesday, then opened her blinds and saw a red SUV with a downed power line on it. Her 21-year-old pregnant neighbor screamed at her boyfriend to save the 9-month-old baby who was still in the vehicle. The boyfriend grabbed the baby and headed up a driveway, but then slid on ice and made contact with the live wire. The neighbor and her 15-year-old brother also tried to save the baby and were electrocuted. Washington was able to crouch down and pull the baby free, unharmed.

Tasmanian Aboriginal artist Jeanette James creates eagle claw necklaces to highlight birds' plight

Each year more than a dozen endangered wedge-tailed eagles are killed in powerlines in Tasmania. An Aboriginal artist hopes her latest creations will raise awareness about the issue, and potentially help protect them from harm.

I watched a couple of videos where #Superman #voice #actors #TimDaly and #GeorgeNewbern mentioned the different struggling sounds they made if Superman were hit w/ #lasers or #electrocuted. I wonder if Superman would cry out in #pain at all. Even the least powerful depictions show him busting through walls, punching asteroids, w/ no sign of pain. Effort yes, pain no. So b/c lasers and electricity don't harm him, I don't think he would cry out in pain.
