I read the one about Roy and the tiger first. It sounded so ridiculous that I thought these were satirical facts. Is that fucking true!?
dagg3r
Funny I was just telling my nephew that if you had a tiger from a cub it will not attack you.. But probably kill you by accident or playing
RandomPanda3
It sounds like bs, but on the other hand if Montecore wanted him dead, he'd be fucking dead.
noscarletcoat
It's def what Siegfried and Roy have claimed since it happened.
fatbottomgirlsmaketheworldgoround
that was my first thought too. they care too much about the tigers that they'd want them protected in a positive light
RoyFuckingMustang
It is. A quick glance at wikipedia tells me that Roy stressed that no harm should come to the tiger. He lived for another 10-11 years.
bufflehead
To save some people a google search: the tiger lived 10-11 more years, Roy is still alive.

No. PSH knew what it took to resist it, and he didn't do it. Anyone can put the drink in your hand, but it's up to you to swallow.

If it was that easy, there's wouldn't be any addicts. Hoffman was very open about his addiction, because he knew it was a problem.

Yes and no? Any addict would be hard pressed to say no to their addiction being dangled. Peer pressure and a long time sober tricks one in1/

I'll sum it up this way: if it was as easy as "Just don't do it.", no one would be an addict and no one would choose to be.

Of course. But blaming someone else (or no one) for your actions isn't right either, Step 10 is important for long-term sobriety.

Later Ferrari insulted the owner of a tractor making company who then made a car to beat Ferrari at LeMans. The company was Lamborghini.

Actually, Ferruccio Lamborghini wanted his cars to be very road-centric. Even refusing to pay an engineer who made an engine "too race-like"

They didn't race much. Also, Lambo pre-dates the GT40.

Also worth noting that the very first year Ford ran the GT40, they brought three cars to Le Mans, and came first, second and third.

They went thru several prototypes (and drivers, sadly) before winning at Le Mans. Read "Go Like Hell," about the feud, if you're into cars.

Yeah, uh.. That isn't true. The first GT40 wasn't a great car. They sure got it right a couple years later, though

Also, it was because Ferrari wanted to keep running the racing team, Ford beat his pride during those years.

Interesting note: The current "Ford GT" is not known as the GT40 because Ford let the trademark be sold and when they went to make the GT /1

the company holding the rights to the car tried to play hardball. Ford decided it wasn't worth it and dropped the "40" from the name. /2

One of my favourite stories of a trademark troll getting nothing and the company they fought losing nothing in the process.
equityforpunks
Original GT40 was also called just GT during development. Don't remember why they added the height there at some point.
SgtMichaelCross
The techs kept referring to it as such, and it stuck. "GT" was the class of racecar with 2 doors & seats; adding the 40 differentiated it.
jimmyjamz11
Also because it would technically have to be the GT44; the GT40 was 40" tall, the newer road car is slightly larger.
ApotheosisCM
It's also not 40inches tall anymore. It's a little bit bigger to be comfortable because it's a road car.
