Duct Symmetry
This staircase once lead up to Clapham North tube station but is now blocked at the top. Ducts were added later to keep it ventelated and safe even tho it now serves no purpose! Not sure why they didnt block it at the bottom too.

"Pedestrians in the vicinity of London and elsewhere may recollect having seen large curved bones set upright in the earth, either to form arches over gateways, or entrances to alcoves, and they may perhaps have been told that these were the ribs of whales."

Bomb-Damaged Game Boy Amazingly Still Works   

They don’t make gaming consoles like they used too. Do you think a PSP would be able to withstand a Gulf War bombing and live to tell the tale? That’s exactly what this Game Boy has managed to do.

Despite being blown into a burnt plastic mess this Game Boy still somehow maintains the ability to trudge along its gaming destiny, still playable and for the most part, surprisingly intact.

Erzgestein ließ sich noch recht leicht beschaffen, Kunststoff dagegen nur äußerst schwierig herstellen: Ein Brite wollte einen Toaster bauen - allein und von Grund auf.

"Auf sich allein gestellt, konnte er nicht mal einen Toaster zusammenbasteln," schreibt der Romanautor Douglas Adams, "er konnte ein leidliches Sandwich machen, aber das war schon alles."
