Shoutout to this particular skeleton, who researchers believe is the first confirmed case of being totally obliterated by a trebuchet

Researchers have identified Skeleton 150, believed to be the first confirmed victim of a trebuchet, unearthed during excavations beneath Stirling Castle in Scotland in 1997. This skeleton is part of a collection dating back to the 1300s and shows signs of violent death, including distinct cut marks, puncture wounds, and blunt force trauma. Dr. Buckberry from Historic Environment Scotland presented findings indicating that the unusual burial location beneath the castle chapel suggests these individuals may have died during sieges in the late 13th century. Stirling Castle was a strategic stronghold that fell to Edward I's armies after a siege in 1304, during which the largest trebuchet, "The War Wolf," was used. Dr. Buckberry noted that the extensive damage to Skeleton 150 indicates the individual was likely killed by a siege engine.

One of Big Walk’s puzzles is simple to solve but still gave us an existential crisis

In the game Big Walk, players must collaborate to solve puzzles on an island. One notable puzzle, discovered six hours into the game, involves a timer counting down from 05:00 after players press buttons simultaneously, sealing the door. Instead of solving the puzzle through action, players must wait for the timer to expire. During this time, they engage in casual conversation and reflections on their situation, ultimately realizing that patience is the key to their escape. When the timer reaches 00:00, the door opens, revealing the prize.
