Epic Fails in Star Wars Design

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 21:38:55 -0500

Death Star
An unshielded exhaust port leading directly to the central reactor? Really? And when you rebuild it, your solution to this problem is four paths into the central core so large that you can literally fly a spaceship through them? Brilliant. Note to the Emperor: Someone on your Death Star design staff is in the pay of Rebel forces. Oh, right, you can’t get the memo because someone threw you down a huge exposed shaft in your Death Star throne room.

Nice. :-)

I’ve written about William Trubridge previously, but missed this footage of his record-breaking unassisted free dive to 88 metres in the Bahamas on April 10 of this year. Superhuman. He’s answering fanmail in the comments thread. (via Sockyung Hong)
