Date Posted: August 20, 2008
Test Performed: August 9, 2008
Running Time: 15:41
Featuring: PatrickD

Show Notes:
PatrickD of The Chibi Project conducted a live experiment at San Japan 1.5 on August 9, 2008. Botan of Yu Yu Hakusho was exposed to one of the oldest and most cruel forms of torture, being hung, drawn, and quartered.

The experiment began with kite string tied to each of Botan's limbs. The strings were pulled by a audience members. After much effort, none of the limbs would come loose.

PatrickD stepped on Botan, but still nobody could pull any limbs loose.

As a last resort, the audience members were told to abandon the strings and pull directly on her limbs. In the end, after a great amount of effort, Botan was quartered into four pieces.

At the end of the panel, PatrickD answered questions, took suggestions, and talked about some future testing.

What is The Chibi Project?
Years ago, some scientists came into the possession of a small PVC figure of the Sailor Moon character known as "Chibi Moon". Upon realizing the high level of pure evil being radiated by this tiny anime figure, these scientists began to subject the small soldier to a battery of tests. Having failed to determine a method of destruction, they have since moved on to other test subjects in hope of finding a solution.
...but basically, we destroy anime toys for fun.

What is a Podcast?
A podcast is a recording that has been converted to an MP3 file or other audio file format for playback in a digital music player. A video podcast, such as this one, refers to a podcast that consists of encoded video. The term "podcast" was coined from Apple's iPod, but an iPod is not required to play a podcast. Using the RSS 2.0 syndication format, podcasts are made available to subscribers just like news feeds. Thousands of podcasts are available on a variety of topics such as technology, cooking, and even The Chibi Project.
