student was killed in a bizarre stunt - GoFuckYourself.com

"A student was killed in a bizarre stunt after he was hurled more than 30m through the air by a human catapult, an inquest today heard. Oxford University student Kostydin Yankov, 19, suffered multiple injuries when he missed a safety net after being flung from a medieval-style trebuchet catapult." ... "The inquest in Taunton, Somerset, heard how the trebuchet was a medieval siege weapon favoured by the Romans, but had been used to fire plague-ridden corpses and other missiles over castle ramparts."

Hehe well I think he was hoping they did. Just apparently the math got mixed up and would explain why he missed the safety net.
