I did retirement home training and used to think it was a sweet job. Then I got in the business and underestimated how demoralizing it was as they give you the easy elders in training while the others make you, or at least me, really think of the fact the job just amounts to an unkarmic freebie.

    The Human Cannonball? He got launched out of the cannon and did one flip before getting caught by the net.

    That’s what it looks like to the untrained eye. But they’re not really going to fire a person out of a cannon. That’s not safe. So he just huddles in the cannon, they light a decoy fuse, it makes a bang (with no projectile), and he spring out and jumps that distance by himself. Requires a lot of core and leg strength.
