Nazis. I hate these guys.

But I thought refrigerators could keep you safe from anything.

Why is it in a refrigerator? IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!

As usual.

Doesn't every apocalypse start with: "Oops"?

It obviously didn't have the magical power of levitation.

Exclusive screen caps from the lab's surveillance camera during the incident:

To protect it against a nuclear bomb?

Quetzalcoatl is not going to like this. I think we're going to have to sacrifice the lab techs to him.

If breaking a mirror is 7 years bad luck how many is breaking an ancient, magical Mayan skull?

rockrobster		2012-05-10 08:50:30 AM

i can make the logical guess, but i wish the article explained that part of its 'journey'.

Thanks for this subby. It reminded me of Marion Ravenwood.

Marion would have caught it.

So was sombody lazy and pull the "hold it in place with your hand as you close the door so it falls out on the next person to opens the refrigerator" routine?

This is why every experiment should begin by sacrificing an intern to appease Beakerdroppal, the god of laboratory accidents.

NashMcNash		2012-05-10 09:01:18 AM

Mayans in Tibet? World travelers, they were.

Dubwise		2012-05-10 09:01:28 AM

Why was a Mayan skull in Tibet?

Is this something I should know?

It's a magic skull. It goes where it wants.

Harry Freakstorm		2012-05-10 09:05:40 AM

It's always in the least likely place. A Tibetan refrigerator. My car keys are probably there too.

It was on holiday. Even idols need a break now & then. He and the Travelocity Gnome were seen at the bar at the Tsurphu Holiday Inn.

MrGuy		2012-05-10 09:07:22 AM

Just how did an ancient Mayan anti-apocalypse skull come to be in the possession of Southern Indian or Tibetan monks in the '30s in the first place? When I think of looters ransacking ancient sites, I generally don't think of monks. I don't think they are usually in the market for looted artifacts either. Furthermore, where are the other 12 anti-apocalypse skulls? Aside from a brief blurb about some of them having damage, the article was a little light on details.

Harry Freakstorm		2012-05-10 09:08:35 AM

Hey look. On the Mayan calendar it says "Lab Oaf breaks sacred skull. World doomed."

Whoa check out the hot babe for the month of Yaxk'in'. Gonna be a great month.

Humm...Interesting they would keep and treasure the only "Black" crystal skull in the group of 13 being the Nazi's were so loving to those of color.

I blame Lucas and Spielberg.

Please, does anyone know why the Mayan skull was in Tibet?
Free?

Mayans? In Tibet?

Forget it, he's rolling...

litespeed74		2012-05-10 09:32:29 AM

I just got back from Belize where the supposed "crystal skull" was found that had no markings on it..blah..blah..
I say hoax because the dude that has it lives in Canada I think and tours around talking about it. But never takes it with him.

Mayan culture is pretty amazing despite the 2012 bshiate we all made up.

bongmiester		2012-05-10 09:35:38 AM

did Tibetans ever visit Mayan?

Hagbardr		2012-05-10 09:39:22 AM

They should have used a lead lined refrigerator.
