Hippos have something like 1500 psi in the jaws, and are highly
territorial.

How did you manage to get chased by a snake?
I had coffee at Corfu airport once, I think that is scarier than anything

When you dream there are no rules, people can fly, anything can happen.
Sometimes, there's a moment as you're waking, that you become aware of
the real world around you, but you're still dreaming.
You may think you can fly, but you better not try it...
