  1. Well that’s pretty cool, science that is. I was in a bike accident once, dropped 15 feet on my face going 25 mph off a jump and ate the handlebars. Concussion, cracked orbits, palate cracked in half like a potato chip, 7 root canals and deal with abscesses today. A bit more hairy than running into a mail truck. This guy got a bad deal, he hit just the right spot. It should be me in his position.

  2. Cyborg is here Bro.What else could
    he control??? Maybe inside an extoskeleton
    15′ tall.Like maybe a General Dynamic .50 cal
    electronic radar/laser guided roller gun…
    Like maybe a fleet of drones to support his
    offensive attack on YOU.
