"I spent half my life in the military, and I used to come home, take off my little soldier hat, put on my painter's hat, and there I'd build the kind of world that I wanted. It was peaceful, it was quiet, there was no hassles, nobody was yelling. And it was good, everything was good. Nobody was going to get shot or hurt, not in my world."
"The Joy of Painting" host Bob Ross was known for his calm, soothing demeanor — but before he launched his painting career, he spent 20 years in the U.S. Air Force.
There, he rose to the rank of master drill sergeant and considered himself a "mean" person, even earning himself the nickname "Bust-'em-up Bobby."
But it was his disdain for his tough role and his love for the mountains surrounding his Alaskan Air Force base that led him to pursue painting. 
Jean Hilliard experienced a car accident in extremely cold conditions.
She attempted to reach her friend's house, located two miles away but collapsed just 15 feet from the destination.
With temperatures plunging to -22F, she remained outdoors for six hours before being discovered. At the hospital, doctors found her skin too frozen to inject a hypodermic needle, and her heart rate was alarmingly low at 12 beats per minute.
In an effort to gradually warm her body, she was wrapped in an electric blanket.
Astonishingly, as her body temperature increased, her vital signs started normalizing.
She regained consciousness the same day. After a 49-day hospital stay, she made a remarkable full recovery.

This photograph shows a Native American man looking over the newly completed transcontinental railroad in Nevada in the year 1869. Let's assume the man was around forty and was born in the 1820s. The changes he must have seen are astonishing.
What this man is looking at, is the beginning of the end of the “quiet” world. Everything he knew is about to change; everything he’s known will soon be forever altered by ‘progress.’
Everywhere that railroad goes, little towns will pop up, towns will turn into cities, and small stores into companies. More trains, followed by trams, cars, motorcycles, and airplanes.

Although matchstick making sounds straightforward, the consequences of working around the materials used to make them were devastating.
Matchsticks were made in factories by women and children who labored for 12 to 16 hours a day and involved dipping the wood matchsticks into a phosphorous solution.
The problem was that too much exposure to phosphorus carried a specific risk: phossy jaw. Essentially, the phossy jaw was a physical ailment that caused the jaw bone to completely rot.
The disease was known to spread to the brain and cause an excruciating death unless the afflicted jaw was completely removed. Even with jaw removal, survival wasn't assured. 
Its always strangers that help us not the real relatives. 😂
