Пре 50 година сер Ентони Хопкинс је написао валцер али се превише плашио да га чује. 2011 замолио је Андре Ријеа да одсвира његову композицију "And the Waltz Goes".⏬
@Culture_Crit That is legitimate. Once you learn the rules & master the medium you are entitled to break all the rules. That's where true innovation begins. The problem is that the people 'breaking the rules' today can't do the former which is why their work is hollow & ugly.
This is Vesna Vulović. She holds the Guinness World Record for the highest fall without a parachute and surviving. She is reported to have fallen 6.3 miles (33,330 ft; 10,160 m) from the sky when a briefcase bomb exploded onboard JAT Flight 367 and crashed into what was then Czechoslovakia in 1972.
So, how exactly did she survive the fall? When the bomb exploded during mid-flight, almost all the passengers were sucked out of the airplane into subfreezing temperatures and fell to their deaths. Vulović was trapped inside the fuselage and pinned down by a food cart. She landed in a heavily wooded area with snow, which helped cushion her fall. Interestingly enough, Vulović's low blood pressure allowed her to pass out quickly when the cabin depressurized and prevented her heart from bursting on impact. When applying to become a flight attendant, Vulović had concealed her low blood pressure from the medical examiners by drinking several cups of coffee.
Vulović was the only survivor, and upon impact, had broken both her legs, parts of her vertebrae, and several ribs. She also fractured her skull and pelvis. After spending several days in a coma, Vulović awoke and asked for a cigarette. She had no recollection of the explosion or the crash. Her recuperation took a total of 16 months.

Art always tells you what a society wants to believe about itself.
So, from the Soviet Union to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, here's what art says about who we are...
Ime Nick Cave zvuči otmeno i misteriozno, a Nikola Pećina zvuči kao neko ko će da ti pjeva na svadbi kao slavuj 2 sata, a onda se napije, prebije ti starog svata i ukrade ti svadbenu tortu da mu se malo zaslade žena i 7 sinova
