How dangerous is a cassowary?
Cassowaries are very wary of humans, but if provoked they are capable of inflicting serious, even fatal, injuries to both dogs and people. It has often been labeled "the world's most dangerous bird".

How fast can a cassowary kill you?
31 miles

The cassowary has been known to kill human beings with slashing blows of its feet, as the innermost of its three toes bears a long daggerlike nail. The bird has been observed moving rapidly along narrow tracks in the bush, sprinting as fast as 50 km (31 miles) per hour.

AHAHAHAHAHA...... LOLOLOLOLOLOL! ! It’s so fucking true it’s not funny. You dump tens of thousands of cubic dollars into go fast and shinny cars, only to get pennies on the dollar if your lucky.

And I’m dumb cause if I had the money I would build a Factory Five Racing Daytona Coupe. 302 long rod setup with Kinslinger individual runner fuel injected intake, naturally aspirated spinning 7000 rpm, Canton Engineering multi plate mini clutch..... 550-600 engine hp in a 2500lb car!! Turbos and superchargers are fun and all, but the sound of high compression revving away on 100 octane!! Ok relax now getting all excited here.
High compression revving like this SBC?

Yes, but do they taste good barbecued? Asking for a Southern friend.
 
Hundreds of fourteenth-century coins were discovered in the western Czech Republic, near the Kladruby Monastery, by a couple out for a walk. “As they were walking through the forest, they spotted a few coins, two made of gold and one of silver, lying on the ground,” explained archaeologist Milan Metlička of the Museum of West Bohemia. “They were probably dug up by some forest animals, most likely by wild pigs.” The couple then pulled up a large stone in the ground, found the coin cache, and alerted authorities. The coins include gold ducats bearing the image of Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV, Albrecht of Austria, and Rupert of the Palatinate; ducats from the Hanseatic city of Lübeck; more than 300 silver groschen minted in Bohemia; and groschen bearing the image of John of Bohemia, the Duke of Luxembourg. Metlička said the monastery was located on a medieval trade route that connected Prague and Nuremberg, although researchers do not know why the coins might have been hidden.

The fucked up part is is should be "finders keepers" and the couple should be able to sell them to a museum, but instead the government gets to confiscate the shit they didn't find.
