    As a kid, I remember wondering if it were possible. It reminds me of a scene from 'The Gods Must be Crazy'. Anybody know what I'm referring to? :laugh:

      I vaguely remember the film - is it the one where a pilot throws a coke bottle out of a light aircraft and some chap on the ground picks it up(or does it hit him on the head?)?

        :wtf:

        What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question? The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism. Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

          Many car accidents don't just happen. They are caused by angels. Elect angels orchestrate them. In this case angels induced the events to bring attention to ball lightening. Spirits (dark matter) when charged float around for a time visibly. Snakes often get caught in electric fences and suffer for days. These power lines were acting in this role.

            That's the one. I can't remember if it hits him in the head, but the tribe eventually associate bad events with it's arrival. The gist of the film is an indigenous chap's journey to return the bottle to the 'gods' in the nearest city. The scene in question was the result of a land rover getting winched from a river or something and pulling itself up into a tree.

                                          Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A.
