Daniel Kim's Comments

Given the behavior of most of the people shown (I think these are mostly Russian dashcam videos), they all should expect to have a brush with death. Many are walking into traffic without looking, walking into traffic while texting, driving at high speed in snowy conditions or with low visibility, or even trying to overtake an oncoming car while crossing the street!
And then there's the car in Arabia, which was probably an incident of 'drifting'; a nihilistic and suicidal practice of disaffected and bored Saudi men.
I showed some of these videos to my daughter when she was learning to drive, in order to show her the kinds of things she should be aware of for 'defensive driving'.

It is one of my favorite episodes in all of StarTrek (next to "Mr Spock and the Planet of Brain-stealing Bimbos") It attempts to show the difficulties of contact with a very alien type of mind and culture, which must have been quite a challenge for the writers. Science Fiction is mostly a way to look at ourselves through an unfamiliar mirror, but this story points in a different direction.

Dr. Doom! I don't know if he finished his doctorate, after that terrible accident that left him scarred.
Dr. Frankenstein does have a MD or PhD, I think. He may be trusted with your life, since he can restore life to your dead body. On the other hand, he may put someone else's brain into it . . .
