Unsolved mysteries (and another opportunity to embarrass SnapDragon)

There are certain questions that many people have asked before and probably not gotten particularly satisfying answers for.

The first big question everyone wants answered is "How tall is misof?" Well, I only come up to about misof's waist, but I still found a way to take a picture that captures how much larger he is than life. bus is next to him, and he has to be at least 7 feet tall as well. While I'm assembling sports teams among TopCoder finalists, I should consider going Slovakian on my Basketball and Volleyball teams.



The next big question is, "How does Pops's legendary laugh sound?" Of course, my camera can't really capture a laugh quite so well, but with the enlisted help of JongMan, whose camera is by far more rich with multimedia features, we have video of a lunch-time conversation with Pops interjecting a few giggles here and there. You can watch it here (1.0 MB).

Another question that people aren't asking but should is what SnapDragon's laugh sounds like. Well, it's nothing particularly special, in fact sometimes it's basically completely silent. What's more interesting is what SnapDragon's laugh looks like. Again, with the help of JongMan's The Cheat-like camera reflexes, we have exclusive footage of his legendary "shrug laugh". Unfortunately, JongMan was also using extreme stealth in capturing this cutting-edge video, and to get a better angle without making his camera prominent, the camera was sideways at the time. So turn your head 90 degrees to the left and enjoy (733 KB). Basically, his laugh looks like Pops's laugh sounds.

Side note - I have a sneaking suspicion SnapDragon isn't going to want to hang out with me anymore soon, since I keep embarrassing him. Hopefully he won't hold it against me.
