George T. Thornton, R.I.P. (Yes, You've Heard of Him Before This)

You may have not known his name, but you know what he was famous for doing:
An Oregon highway engineer who blew up a dead beached whale with a half-ton of dynamite in 1970 has died at the age of 84.

George Thomas Thornton gained national attention over the exploding whale, and the act endured for decades thanks to a video that shows giant pieces of whale carcass splattering across the beach and spectators

I wonder whether Hunter S. Thompson had this in mind when he left instructions that his ashes should be fired out of a cannon.

Crankily yours,

Clearly the situation called for more dynamite or a much smaller whale.
