I was reading about the fulton recently and if anyone is wondering about the danger, it was used for quite some time, I believe into the 90s, and there was only one known death.

I've wanted a bionic arm ever since I was a kid watching 80's cartoons! When the tech is ready, I'll be very tempted to cut off an arm just to get one.

Mention sky hook but not The Dark Knight? "Its that thing Batman uses to kidnap Chinese people (it was in China right?)". Plus out of control Nanobots being one of the more likely ways humanity will kill itself off. If we live that long I mean. Yeah, I guess that is a tad depressing. Good call. The prosthetic limb stuff is pretty cool though.

And in Batman it is ALSO mentioned that it was called "Sky Hook" and that it was from the 50's.

Ummm, MGS is a video game. It's contents can not exist in our realm of reality. This isn't Jurassic Park, scientists arent going to just bring horses back from extinction either. It's impossible.

Anyone else concerned that the device that smokes intelligence papers, as well as lights his cigars, is the same device he uses for navigation? One of these days he's going to try to call for air support, but end up burning a hole in his one good eye...
