Re: Chinese Woman Killed by Guard Rails
I reckon it had to cause a cervical dislocation, no? Because it doesn't look like there was any thrashing about from the position of her arms and legs, it looks like she fell and her body and brain stopped interacting. But I'm no expert. Regardless, this is sad to me because Wǔdà is one of the top universities in China, and they are world-class in materials science and mining engineering, fields that have significant direct real-world impact. She was likely very smart and worked very hard and could have made significant contributions. But instead of leaving her mark on the world she just left a smudge on a rail. |

Re: Chinese Woman Killed by Guard Rails
She was not from Wuhan University but the Wuhan University of Science and Technology, which is less prestigious. Nevertheless it was reported that she had found a well-paying job in Beijing at the time of her death. |

Re: Chinese Woman Killed by Guard Rails
Ah, thanks for the clarification; that's what I get for making assumptions. it's still sad. On a brighter note, I have actually been to Wuhan. The Hubei museum is rad. They have the contents of an ancient tomb from the Warring States period on display, with neat bronze sculptures and this big, elaborate musical instrument with a bunch of bells on it. |
