  • Bill Wysock in his backyard, in Monrovia (near Hollywood), California. Fiery sparks crackle from a metal tube as he also lights a 40-watt light bulb in his hands. He is sitting on a metal disk linked by a cable to his Tesla coil: a transformer producing high-frequency currents that pass safely over the surface of his body. Low-frequency currents would pass through it, meeting resistance and causing injury. MODEL RELEASED (1992)

  • Takeuchi Masato (ring name Miyabiyama) makes a handprint during a break at pre-tournment practice in Nagoya,  Japan.  The prints are given to fans and sponsors. (Takeuchi Masato is featured in the book What I Eat, Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his typical day's worth of food in June was 3500 kcals.  He is one of the largest of the Japanese sumos and would probably have moved up even further in the ranks had he not suffered a severe shoulder injury. He is only just now returning to matches. MODEL RELEASED.

  • Micro Technology: Micromechanics: Image showing the small size of the micro- accelerometer used to trip a car 'air-bag' safety device. The micro-accelerometer is seen as the small black dot in the middle of the hand. In a collision, the micro-accelerometer detects the sudden slowing down of the car. This triggers a circuit, which rapidly inflates a plastic bag with air. The air bag deploys between the driver and the steering wheel, preventing serious facial injury as the driver is thrown forward. The air- bag inflates fully in about 0.2 seconds. Micro- accelerometers are mechanical devices made by the same processes that are used in the manufacture of conventional silicon microcircuits.
