      Jesus Christ.

      I very well remember seeing the censored version of that image… this is the first time I’ve seen it uncensored.

      I’ve seen uncensored pics from the highway of death, other graphic shit that made it onto the early days of liveleak… but there ya go, memory hole in action.
