On this day 40 years ago, Metallica bassist Cliff Burton was killed in an extremely metal way (launched out the window of a crashing tour bus, which flipped on top of him). Metallica was never the same after his death. Cliff 'Em All.

Most of the pictures show the masked men from the neck or torso up, but they look very goofy in their shorts. I encourage more pictures of them showing their full uniform.

New right wing thing is describing crimes as generically as possible to pretend like they're not crimes. Someone gets convicted of conspiracy and they start yelling "Wow so it's illegal to make plans with friends now"

Milo Yiannopoulos is in ICE custody after I exposed his illegal alien lifestyle. 

Marjorie Traitor Greene hired Milo to work as her “intern” where he produced her podcast, wrote her book and lived at her house in Rome, Georgia before she sold it.

Google AI is a hater
Screenshot of Google search results for "could dolly parton suplex the undertaker?"

No, Dolly Parton could not physically suplex The Undertaker.While Dolly Parton is a beloved cultural icon with legendary ambition, executing a vertical or German suplex requires immense physical strength, leverage, and a specific weight-to-power ratio that makes this feat humanly impossible for her.

The Physics and Biometrics

Massive Weight Discrepancy: The Undertaker (Mark Calaway) billed at roughly 300 pounds (136 kg). Dolly Parton weighs approximately 115 pounds (52 kg).

Leverage Deficit: The Undertaker stands 6 feet 10 inches tall. Dolly Parton is 5 feet 1 inch tall. Lifting a center of gravity that high requires massive physical leverage.

Force Requirements: To lift and throw a 300-pound man overhead, an athlete needs elite deadlift strength and explosive hip extension, which a petite woman in her 80s does not possess.

The Only "Winning" Scenarios

If we move from strict physics to the world of professional wrestling entertainment, Dolly Parton could theoretically execute the move under very specific conditions:

The "Cooperation" Factor: In professional wrestling, a suplex is a collaborative effort. If The Undertaker jumped aggressively into the move to post himself up, he could minimize the weight Dolly had to lift. However, her frame still could not support his descending impact.

The Distraction: If Dolly utilized outside interference—perhaps Willie Nelson or a distraction with a rhinestone-encrusted guitar—she might get a steel chair involved instead.If you want to explore more fictional or crossover wrestling matchups, I can: Analyze how other pop culture icons would fare in the ringBreak down the anatomy of a perfect suplex and the training requiredLook up celebrity guest spots in WWE history that actually happenedLet me know how you would like to expand this scenario!

In addition, you only know who your friends are when the shit hits the fan, invariably, it always does for each of us in different ways. I don't mean to pontificate, its just that I have always been in the Jeff Epstein corner regardless of circumstance. Loyalty is a trait that seems to have fallen by the way side in this sophisticated, politically correct, society we live in.
