Happy 55th Oregon Blew Up A Whale Day for those who celebrate!

Also: if you're afraid of doing something because you're worried you'll look like a jackass if you mess up, PLEASE know that you will never look like as much of a jackass as the State of Oregon did as chunks of rotting whale blubber pelted onlookers.

They caught the whole debacle on the evening news.

50 Years Ago Today, Oregon Blew Up a Dead Whale. With Dynamite. On Live TV.

The blubber chunks were ... everywhere.
