ORIGINAL: CaptJosh Hell, on Mythbusters, for the Diehard toilet bomb myth, they were told to under no circumstances replicate the amount of time that Riggs' partner supposedly sat on the toilet to keep the bomb from going off. The human body is not meant to sit, stand, kneel, lie, etc. in the same position for that length of time. Even when supposedly sitting at a desk all day long, one shifts in one's chair, gets up to pace, etc. Maybe not in the movies or for some experiment etc but, I dunno, to keep an actual living/breathing bomb from shredding you arse first then I reckon probably all of us could go that extra yard - or ten.... Sounds like a Lethal Weapon movie, btw. But yeah, human furniture is human, first. You need breaks and you need variety. Focus.
