The only person that has ever been struck by a particle accelerator’s beam

“The beam measured about 200,000 rads when it entered Bugorski’s skull. … 600 rads is enough to kill a person,”

“Bugroski completely lost hearing in the left ear and only a constant unpleasant internal noise remained in his left ear. The left half of his face was frozen, due to the destruction of nerves, and does not age. He is able to function perfectly well, save the fact that he has occasional petit mal seizures and very occasional grand mal seizures.”

  1. God to feel sorry for that guy.

  2. Part of his face didn’t age, eh? That doesn’t sound too bad. Get hit in the face with one of those things and look young forever.

    Seizures. What a small price to pay ;)

    (Just joking. Poor, poor man…)

  3. 200,000 rads… Jesus Christ.

  4. Oh wait. Yes, I have. I’m sorry, but I just don’t have it in me right now to type it all out again. Besides, it was just ramblings anyway. You didn’t want to hear me go on and on about this, right?
