And here is more INTEL if anyone cares !!

Great post ... that is Bad ass Indeed !!

yup man its pretty amazing, imagine how he must have felt knowing he killed SOOO many people,
thats just ridiculous... i feel that would always be on his mind no matter what!...

"Simo Häyhä received five medals for valour, including the prestigious Kollaa Cross, and was express-promoted from corporal to second lieutenant. Throughout the war, Häyhä raked in a total of 505 confirmed sniper kills (in some sources he is credited with 542). On top of this, he also mowed down two hundred men with a Suomi 9mm submachine gun, bringing his total kill count to over 700 men in under 100 days.
Nobody in history has ever been credited with more confirmed kills than Simo Häyhä. He was an unlikely war hero who used patience, cunning and precision to defend his country, his home, his people and his freedom from communist totalitarian oppression. He was an unstoppable killing machine the likes of which the world has never known before or since.

That self-appendectomy

[/FONT] So here just facts: it was happened in 6th SAE in Novolazarevskaya station. Doctor on station was just single, so the assistant was a mechanic. It was at April 30, 1961. The operation take 2 hours. He take position that he saw own body and use mirror when open body - he make 12 cm cut through which he find appendix. After 5 days doctor feel good and after 7 days he take away wires which they use to sewing body. His name Leonid Rogozov. He publish the short note about in the Information Bulletin of Soviet Antarctic Expedition, no. 37, pp. 42-44, 1962.

After this case it was happened another time but I have not information. In my laboratory was a real case - doctor do appendix operation during traverse Mirny-Dome C. It was in 29 SAE on the way back from Dome C to Mirny. At 13 February 1984 Valentin Gorbachev, radioengeneer and magnetician, felt bad and become clear that it is appendix. In snow traverse was a doctor Igor Mogirev, who spent a winter at Vostok station and agreed to take part in traverse as a cook and occasionally as a doctor . So they arrange clean room in the living sledge (balok ?) behind of tractor. As it was necessary to keep clean atmosphere they switch off diesel heater so during operation was very cold as outside was almost minus 50 degrees C. The stop of traverse for operation was on 999 km from Mirny inside Antarctica. The operation was successful - and after two days they begin to move toward Mirny. This fellow, V. Gorbachev now is 63 and happy.

[Novolazarevskaya was at 70°S 11°E, set up in 1960-61 on rock in Queen Maud Land 50 miles inland from the ice edge. It was closed in 1992]
The above info comes from Alex Zaitsev, the Russian exchange scientist who was one of our fellow 1977 winterovers. What he didn't say was that Vladimir Papitashvili (the current/2009 NSF Aeronomy & Astrophysics Sciences Program Director and one of the Pole summer science representatives) actually was an assistant in the 1984 surgery on the Mirny/Dome C traverse. That story just came out in a June 2009 New Scientist interview. Alex and Vladimir worked in the same geomag lab in the 1960's.

Thank you for contributing !

I will shift the direction of this thread towards our animal friends .... this morning.
As I am a Taurus, I find a special connection/bond, with the bull. Loved them since early childhood.

With that said, I present you BODACIOUS !
In my eyes, he defines badass.

On a side note Please have a glance at THIS as source.

Matador in hospital after horrific goring
Spanish matador Julio Aparicio was recovering in hospital on Saturday after suffering a horrific goring during a bullfight in Madrid.
This just happened recently.

The half-ton bull caught the torero under his chin after he lost his footing and stumbled while executing a pass with his red cape at the Spanish capital's packed bullring.

The horn of the animal tore into the bullfighter's throat and emerged through his mouth in a dramatic goring on Friday evening that had the crowd screaming in horror.



The pink-stockinged, sequined matador was lifted into the air and then dropped to the sand. The bull backed away after it was distracted by fellow matadors who dashed to the rescue.


The 41-year-old struggled to his feet, staggered a few yards, spluttering blood and was then carried from the ring and into the medical ward at the Las Ventas arena.


He later underwent six hours of surgery at the October 12 hospital in Madrid where doctors performed an emergency tracheotomy and worked to reconstruct his throat, jaw, tongue and roof of the mouth.


"He remains in the intensive care unit of the hospital, has regained consciousness and his vital signs are stable," reported a spokesman from the hospital.


"There were no surgical complications" said the bullfighter's father, also called Julio Aparicio.


"It was a serious goring. Almost his entire mouth was destroyed. It's too early to talk of recovery, we must wait and see."


There were fears for his life in the first anxious hours after the goring.


The injured man comes from a famous bullfighting family - his father is also a matador - and he was one of the big draws at the San Isidro bullfighting festival that takes place each May in Madrid.


The evening bullfights are watched by sell-out crowds at the 25,000 seat Las Ventas bullring and are broadcast live on cable television. Six animals are killed in each bullfight.


Many of Spain's newspapers carried the photograph of the exact moment of the goring, sparking arguments on their message boards. Some viewers thought the image too shocking. Others used it as a chance to call for a ban on bullfighting altogether.

Do you know/have/heard/find any other bad-ass animals! Either in action/behavior .... or physiology ? Do share !!

getting gored in the chin isn't badass any more than any injury sustained in a car accident would be.
badass things are done on purpose.
that dude isn't badass, he's a bad bullfighter.

But that bull is bad ass .... as it does what it does ! Reference to BODACIOUS as it tries to protect itself ... from the rider. BODACIOUS retired undefeated ... so there is no bull rider capable of handling this creature.
Riding a bull is crazy period. (definitely not bad ass .... just asking to get hurt)
The gored clip ... is just an interesting side note ... as I love bulls.
I will not be attempting this sport, that is for sure.
