The one on the left is the one on the stamp, the face of the replica in Vegas; the one on the right is the face on the real statue.

Sorry, RR. That's impossible.
To be fair, I bet he said this before internet forums and msg. boards were even dreamed of.
Flying Through Batman Cave
Wingsuit / BASE-jump athlete Alexander Polli does the never before done—a tactical flight through a narrow cave on a rugged mountainside. The flight starts with a jump from a hovering helicopter, Alexander reaches speeds of 250 km/h (155 mph) while following a precise trajectory leading to the cave opening, he then fully commits and flies directly through the narrow opening of the "Batman Cave!"
Shot in full HD, this extraordinary flight exceeds the level of commitment most fliers would ever consider—there can be no attempting, the only option is success! The narrow cave, no wider than Alexander is tall, is located in Roca Foradada Mountains in Montserrat, Spain—a location that has inspired this professional Italian Norwegian athlete's flying dream his whole life. Alexander hopes his success will inspire others not only to 'climb over their mountains,' but to also fly right through them!

Time Travel - THE BUSEY ZONE
A few weeks ago, one of my cousins posted a quote from Gary Busey on her Facebook wall. I forget what the quote was, but it was one of those bits of wit from Busey that would make someone think he's a deep thinking philosopher.
Now, I like Busey...at least, I've liked his acting. I can't say that I know the man other than his appearances on Celebrity Apprentice or Celebrity Rehab or the interviews with him. He did a lot of drugs earlier in his life and had a horrible motorcycle injury that resulted in him nearly losing his life and in which he sustained some severe brain trauma. I don't want to diss the man, but I will admit I think he's a strange duck.
I noticed he had a YouTube channel and I subscribed to it. I haven't watched all of his posted videos, but I've watched a few and started a few more but didn't manage to finish them. Most of them are along this vein.
