15. Making The Connection

This photo looks a little bit like Fridman had been at work on it before any request was sent to him! It's a happy scene, with a group of friends getting together to celebrate good times. The boy in the orange shirt looks a little uncomfortable, though. Because of a combination of the angle of his arm, and the angle of the camera, it looks like his head has slipped clean off his shoulders and rolled down the arm. At least he's smiling through the pain.

Fridman's job was simple - attach the head and the body back together. There was no direction about which part of the body the head should be attached to, so Fridman went with the nearest available limb. We think there's a lot to be said for this arrangement. Imagine how much easier it would be to look around corners, or on high shelves!

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
