101 uses for a wastepaper bin

We watched a Werner Herzog film called" Encounters at the End of the World" last night...in it they showed a group being trained in how to cope in a whiteout...they all had to wear wastepaper bins on their heads and try and find their way to safety with no sight and only muffled sound...apparently the bins replicate the experience. If an actual whiteout wasn't so life threatening this would have been even funnier..but seeing the bumbling around and heading off away from the camp bought home how deadly it could be.
