This is a wonderful story showing the forces of nature at work.
Some of you may be familiar with the story of this guy in Germany who spent 10 days in a box atop a 72-foot-tall pole to protest a looming jail term. The guy was mad, he had a lot of eyeballs watching him, and it seemed like nothing could force him from his fortress.
That is, until his 25-year-old wife, a former stripper, sent a photo of herself topless up to him in his lunchbox. It seems that got him down right away.
Meanwhile, this seems to offer a whole new set of tactics for hostage negotiators. Here’s the story:
