How a Digital Audio file sounds, or a Digital Video file looks, is governed to a large extent by the Power Supply area. All that Identical Checksums gives is the possibility of REGENERATING the file to close to that of the original file.

Knew someone doing off road 4 wheeling and stopped with their truck touching a regional high voltage pylon. Not really a crash and no damage to the pylon. Illegal to be there of course.

 

Anyway, the driver opens door and gets out. Blows off one leg below the knee and one above upon ground contact. Cauterizing that took place probably saved his life sans legs. This was just from some stray currents on those big lines. His buddy was luckier. When he reacted by jumping out to help he only lost one leg. Amazing they both lived.

And always keep in mind: Cognitive biases, like seeing optical illusions are a sign of a normally functioning brain. We all have them, it’s nothing to be ashamed about, but it is something that affects our objective evaluation of reality.

When I was in junior high a student died in a very similar situation while riding an ATV.

 

That PSA is from my local power company. :)
