That really is interesting. I have often wondered how a little bird's brain survives those thunderous blows without rattling around in its skull like a BB in a bottle.
@Catseye3 I didn't mean to reply to your comment with another Mildly Interesting post.
I meant to say. Maybe we should start a "Really Interesting" thread. But then I thought, who determines what is Mildly Interesting vs. Really Interesting? It's so subjective.

When I was a kid we had this guy Newton somewhere in our school, and he made a bunch of laws.

I assume the, lucky, photographer was probably looking away from the explosion when the flash occurred. It seems like most people in that area would be, at least temporarily, blinded.

If i remember the story correctly, the photo (or the negative) was found in a school from where the photo was taken. Dont know what happened to the photographer.
