got my hands on the first series of "world's Deadliest Roads" ......and all i gotta say is RESPECT
sure pretty controlled .... to a certain degree .... by the guys who are filming ...... but ...
"oh my god" and "what the fuck" all rolled into one with a shit load of explanation marks after them
its all about one road of hell up in the mountains of pretty much himalayias in india.... and apparently 180,000 people die each year .... on a short not even 200 km road
i was glued to the frigging screen , desperately wanting to say fuckit and delete, and yet i couldnt
basically am freaked out.... on how man creates....and the shit man has to pull in order to create..... and this apparently, at least this route, has been going on for thousands of years
awesome and humbling and absolutely major respect to those who drive this roads (ahem! did i say roads? well mostly that would be described with a major pinch of salt)
anybody seen this series?

I guess we are both freaked out about roads now, that's why I started basking on the footpath, that is, until I was run over by a bicycle.

lol, great snapshot, the photographer timed the driver's outburst to perfection.
Ohhhh, I would have an underbelly so inflated with grain, that I would be out of reach of any claw friction to escape, the vulnerable skink, rocking like a melon, desperately awaiting digestion, and that's not to mention all the lush tropical cabbage in the background.

i wonder how many reptilians got flattened while parking on the side of the road like proverbial vultures, waiting for the next accident to happen
