  Speaker 2: Okay, let's get into today's stories.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Just before midnight on August twentieth, twenty twelve, a nineteen
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: year old college student named Rose mar and her best friend,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: nineteen year old Elizabeth Nass, walk down Main Street in
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: their hometown of Ellicott City, Maryland. It was their last
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: night together before they each would head back to college
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: in separate states, and so to cap off what had
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: felt like a perfect summer, they decided to grab a
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: few beers despite being underage, and head on over to
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: their favorite hangout spot, a train trestle that ran over
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Main Street. A train trestle is literally a bridge, but
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: for trains. Now, to be clear, this train trestle was
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: not like some secret Daredevil hideout spot.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Lots of people knew about it.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Lots of kids in town, you know, including Rose and Elizabeth,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: had been up here many many times. And while there
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: was an active train track that ran across it, the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: ledge on the trestle where everybody would sit when they
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: were up there was several feet away from the tracks,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: kind of safely out.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Of the way.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: You could be up there looking down over the town
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: and a train could literally pass right by you and
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: not affect you, so overall it was safe. So Elizabeth
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: and Rose climbed up onto the train trestle and took
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: their seats along the ledge, safely away from the tracks,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and then they cracked open a few beers and began
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: talking about their upcoming semesters.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: They talked about.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Which classes they were going to take, and what they
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: were looking forward to, and really how much they were
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: going to miss each other. And then at some point
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Rose pulled out her phone and she took a photo
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: of her and Elizabeth's feet dangling off the trestle. Basically,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the photo captured their feet kind of hovering over main Street.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Then she posted that photo to Twitter, and then as
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: soon as she hit post, she and Elizabeth heard this
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: loud screeching sound coming from right behind them. When they
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: turned around to see what it was, something huge smashed
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: into them and then it went black. That loud screeching
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: sound was the sound of a train passing by right
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: behind them. But remember the tracks are set far enough
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: back that the train it couldn't hit them, and in
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: this case, the train was not the thing.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: That hit these two girls.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Instead, it was something truly unfortunate that happened to them.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: When that train passed by the girls, it partially derailed,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: not a full scale like cars going everywhere off the tracks,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: but instead several of these cars basically toppled over to
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: their sides. And some of those cars that toppled over
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: were carrying thousands of pounds of coal, and these were
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: open cars.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: You can literally see the coal.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: As the train goes by, and so as the train's
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: going by, those cars topple, all this coal comes out,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: and the coal smashed into Rose and Elizabeth.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: And fully buried them. It was like they were under
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: an avalanche, but not of snow, of coal.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: And so by the time the girls were pulled out
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: of the coal they were already dead. Rose and Elizabeth
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: were the only two fatalities from this derailment. Their families
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: would later sue the railroad company alleging negligence, and each
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: family would receive a settlement, though the exact amounts were
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: never disclosed. Thank you to Betterhelp for sponsoring today's video.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month, and so in
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: honor of that, I wanted to share a quick story
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: about my own mental health. So back in twenty seventeen,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I got out of the military after several years, and
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I really went through a sort of identity crisis. So
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: much of who I was was wrapped up in being
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: a Navy seal, but now that I was out on
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: the other side, it was like I didn't know who
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I was anymore, and I didn't even know what job
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: to get or really what to do with my life.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: And it was sort of like this existential crisis that
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: really sent me into a very dark and depressing spiral.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: But instead of seeking help or telling anybody about it,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: I began sort of lashing out at family and friends
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: and just kind of being a downer everywhere I went.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: It wasn't until my family and friends, because they loved me,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: stepped in and said, you really need to see someone
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: that I finally understood the impact I was having on
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: other people and how bad things had gotten for me.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: And so I did go out and I spoke to
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: a therapist, And at first, I admit I wasn't sold
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that this was going to be a big solution for me,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: but pretty quickly, having that neutral third party to kind
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: of bounce ideas off of and gain perspective from, really
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: changed my life, and it set me on a course
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: to where I'm happy today. I still see a therapist,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: but it's therapy that got me to this place right now,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: this equilibrium I have reached, it's because of therapy. So
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: if you're struggling now, I would highly suggest thinking about
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: therapy as an option, and a great starting point for
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: therapy is better Help, primarily because it's entirely online, so
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: it's very easy.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: It's accessible.

• 5:12

• 5:18

• 5:47
  Speaker 1: pm on October twenty seventh, twenty fourteen, a seventeen year
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: old boy named Jesus Manessas was playing basketball with a
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: group of friends on an outdoor basketball court at Kinlock
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Park in Miami, Florida. The friends had broken up and
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: two teams and were in the middle of a very
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: intense pickup game, and the game was pretty close, and
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Jesus's team was.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Doing pretty well.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: But at some point, when Jesus and his team had possession,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: one of his teammates just got frazzled by the defense
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: and just took this crazy three point shot from way
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: behind the line, and the ball just sailed right past
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the hoop, completely missed it airball, and it bounced and
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: then went clean over this chain link fence on the
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: edge of the park. And as soon as this happened,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Jesus and all of his friends led out a collective
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: groan because they knew basically anything that went over that
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: fence was pretty much gone forever. But to Jesus's surprise,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: one of his friends turned to Jesus and was like, hey,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: why don't you just hop the fence and go get
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the ball.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Now, Jesus really did not want to do that.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, he had been coming to this park since
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: he was like one years old with his family, and
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: his mom and dad had always told him to never
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: ever climb that fence.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Never.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: But now Jesus's friend who had asked him to do this,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: had kind of like turned it into a dare, and
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: he's like, no, come on, Hazus, like go go hop
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: the fence and get the ball. And the other friends
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: had kind of picked up on this and they were
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: kind of egging it on, being like yeay, Zeus.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Go over there, get the ball. And so Jesus knew, like,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: this is not a good idea.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I cannot go over that fence. But here I am
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: surrounded by all my peers basically egging me on to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: go do it, and he didn't want to look weak
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: or scared, and so he's thinking to himself, you know, hey,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: what's the worst that could happen, and he's like, all right,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I'll go get it. And so Jesus left the basketball
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: court and walked over to this fence and it was
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: about seven feet tall and there.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Was all this barbed wire across the top of it.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: And so as he's standing there looking at the fence,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: he turns back around and his.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Friends are all smiling like, yeah.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Go get it, and so he's like, okay, and he
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: begins climbing the fence and he gets to the top
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: and he reaches the barb wire and he very carefully
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: positions himself so he doesn't cut himself on the way over.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: And right after he's cleared the barb wire, he kind
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: of tumbles to the other side of the fence. He
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: hits the ground, and he's kind of shaken up from
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: hitting the ground pretty hard, but you know, he stands up,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: dust himself off, he realized, says he's okay, and he
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: turns and looks through the fence now at his friends
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: and they're all cheering him on. And so now Jesus
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: is feeling really confident and he kind of smiles at
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: his friends like he's the hero now. And he turns
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: and sure enough, there's the basketball just a few feet away,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: so he walks over, picks up the basketball, and chucks
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: it over the fence back to his friends. And Jesus
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: was about to climb over the fence and go rejoin
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: his friends when he happened to look back in the
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: direction of where his basketball had been, and he noticed
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: there was another basketball that somebody else had lost over
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: this fence, except this basketball was on the other side
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: of a second fence. Basically, once you climb this first fence,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: a couple of feet later there is a second fence.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: These were the two fences that Jesus and everybody who
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: ever came to this park were warned about never climb them.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: But Hazus has already climbed the first one, and he's
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: got his basketball, and he's thinking, I can climb the
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: second one too, and I can get that basketball, and
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: then we'll have too, so if we ever lose another one,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: we have a backup. So, without even telling his friends,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Jesus walks over to the second fence, which is basically
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: identical to the first fence, about seven feet tall, a
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: bunch of barb wire at the top, and he carefully
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: climbs to the top and he kind of positions himself
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: over the barbed wire and then he drops down to
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: the other side, except this time, when he hits the
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: ground after clearing that second fence, something horrible happens. Within
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: seconds of Jazeus landing inside of that second fenced in area,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: his friends back on the court saw what was going
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: on and began totally panicking.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: They're screaming, they're running around, they don't know what to do.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Eventually one of them would call nine to one one,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and then minutes later, first responders show up and they
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: find Jesus's friends.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: They're totally frantic.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: They're all pointing toward the fenced in areas, and the
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: first responders they look and they know right away there's
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: virtually nothing they can do to save Jesus. The reason
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: these fences were totally off limits, the reason Jesus's family
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: specifically warned him from when he was a young kid
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to never ever climb them because inside of the second
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: fenced in area was an electrical power grid, and there
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: were signs all over these two fences warning people to
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: stay back, that it was dangerous no trespassing, like fatalities
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: will occur if you go in here, but Hazus ignored
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the warnings an he climbed the first fence, and he
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: climbed the second fence, except when he landed inside of
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: that second fenced in area, he landed on a live
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: electrical wire, and the second he did, five hundred thousand
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: volts of electricity coursed through his body. For reference, the
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: average lightning bolt contains about three hundred thousand volts of electricity.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: So as soon as Hazu's hit that wire, it was
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: like the equivalent of two lightning bolts striking him at once,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: but not just one time, over and over and over again,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: and so unfortunately, Jesus died almost immediately. On the afternoon
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: of April twenty second, twenty twenty three, a forty nine
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: year old father of three named Carl O'Keefe crawled through
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: a cave system in Cumbria, England. He was on his
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: hands and knees, shuffling his way forward, and the only
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: light that guided him through this tight, small tunnel was
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: the headlamp on his head. So Carl was an adventurer.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: He loved things like rock climbing and exploring caves, but
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: this particular cave he wasn't that familiar with. He'd only
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: been here a couple other times, and he didn't have
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: a map, so really he didn't actually know where he
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: was going. But Carl wasn't remotely worried because he knew
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: this was easily the safest cave system he had ever explored.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: In fact, this place was so safe that often people
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: showed up with their kids and let them run around
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: freely with no fear they were going to get hurt.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: And so Carl has no worries here.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: And also he's thinking to himself, you know, he's not
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: very far into this particular tunnel, he can actually still
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: hear the other people and their kids kind of right
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: behind him. And so again, even though he doesn't really
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: know where he is, he feels completely fine. And so
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Carl continued crawling through this tunnel, and eventually he reached
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: this t intersection where he just had to choose between
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: going right and left. And again he's got no map,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: he doesn't really know where he's going, so he decides, okay,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: I'll just go right, and so he begins going down
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: this tunnel, which closely resembled the tunnel he had just
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: came from. But as he was crawling along, he started
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: to feel like the walls around him were kind of
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: shrinking and it was getting harder and harder to push
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: his body through this tunnel. And then finally, when it
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: felt like it was so tight around him and it
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: was getting so claustrophobic that maybe he should just turn around,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: he reached a dead end.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: That's all this was.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: The right turn was just a dead end, and so
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: he thought, okay, I'll just turn around and go back
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: the way I came and you know, maybe explore the
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: left side. So in order to do that, Carl decided
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: he would make a U turn with his body. He
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: would literally just turn around and go back the way
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: he came, leading with his head and his upper body.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: And so he's facing the dead end.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: He's on his hands and knees, and he begins doing
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: this U turn and he kind of turns and gets
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: his head and his shoulders and his upper half kind
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: of folded around until they're looking back in the direction
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: he was coming. But he was too physically big to
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: get his lower half to complete the U turn, and
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: so he was effectively wedged in this U shaped position.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: He couldn't do anything. He was just stuck. But Carl
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: didn't panic because he knows this is a safe place.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: This is not a big deal.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Nobody gets hurt in these cave systems, and I just
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: need to rethink how I go back the way I came. Clearly,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: this U turn attempt is not working, and so he decides, Okay,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: let's reset. I'll pull my shoulders and my upper body
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: back and I'll reset facing the dead end.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: I'll basically go back to exactly the position I was
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: just in.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Except when he tried pulling his upper body and his
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: head and his shoulders back to where he was facing
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: the dead end, he realized he was also stuck going
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: in that direction. He couldn't go back to the way
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: he was, and he couldn't return in the direction he
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: had come. He was stuck in this U shape and
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: couldn't go anywhere. Now Again, Carl is telling himself.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: That it's gonna be okay. This is a safe place.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Kids play here, like this is no big deal. I'm
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: gonna be okay. And so we tried, you know, to
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: kind of shimmy himself one way or the other, but
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: it was like no matter what he did, he just
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: could not move out of this U shape and as
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: that happened, he began to kind of panic. His heart
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: rate began to rise, it became harder to breathe. It
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: felt like the walls of this cave were kind of
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: pushing down on him, and before long he was becoming
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: overwhelmingly claustrophobic, and it just felt like the walls of
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: this tunnel were crushing him, and he really began to
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: panic and he just started screaming out for help. Immediately,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: some of the staff who heard Carl yelling out made
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: their way into this tunnel system and actually saw Carl.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: They could see him in this U shape, totally wedged,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: and at first they like couldn't understand what was even
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: happening here, But when they tried to pull him out,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: they couldn't get him to move.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, he really was totally stuck here.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: And so sensing that this was a true emergency, the
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: staff backed out and they called the fire department. In
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: the fire department, they came out, and they too could
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: not get Carl out.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: He was stuck.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: And so pretty quickly Carl realized all he could do
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: here was just do his best to stay calm, because
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: this position he was in was really restricting his breathing,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: not to mention, you know, the tunnel itself is pressing
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: down on him, and so he just tried to stay
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: calm and kind of have measured breaths, and he kept thinking,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: you know, the rescue team, they're right there. They're gonna
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: get me out of here quickly, I know it. But
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: much too Carl's shock, and to the shock of all
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: the first responders, they didn't get Carl out quickly. Instead,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: it would take an agonizing four hours to finally free him.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: And during those four hours, Carl got weaker and weaker
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: and weaker and more and more panicked.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: The instant Carl was out of the tunnel, he was
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: rushed to the nearest hospital and admitted to the intensive
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: care unit, and there they would discover he had suffered
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: all these extensive crush injuries from being in that position
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: so long. He had severe bone damage, organ damage, and
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: nerve damage.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, he was in horrible shape.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: And despite heroic efforts by medical staff to try to
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: save Carl, ultimately he would die eight days later from
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: those injuries, and his death would become massive news because
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: it really seemed impossible that somebody could die in that
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: cave system, because it was meant to be so safe.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: This cave system was not like an underground cave system
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: where spilunkers go. No, this was a cave system for kids.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: It was a kid's playplace. All the tunnels and the
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: cave itself was made out of plastic again, so kids
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: could crawl and explore. But adults were told they too
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: could go through those tunnels with their kids. And so
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Carl had gone to a birthday party for one of
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: his kid's friends. He had brought his kids along, and
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: being the devoted father that he was, he went right
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: in there with his kids and was crawling all around
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: and goofing around with the kids until unfortunately he got stuck.
