Don’t really remember seeing it at the time (and it wasn’t as if I was angling to see it - more of a my parents couldn’t get a babysitter situation). I of course have seen it again since a few times. My mom told I wasn’t really traumatized by the “Squeal like a pig scene” but by the hand coming out of the water at the end.

> [@Dr.Winston\_OBoogie](#): > > Ted “Double Duty” Radcliffe I actually met Double Duty at an event in Chicago years ago! He was 99 years old and in a wheelchair and didn’t say much, and I wasn’t able to spend a lot of time with him anyway. But I shook the man’s hand, and that’s something.

[St. Olga of Kyiv](https://theconversation.com/saint-olga-of-kyiv-is-ukraines-patron-saint-of-both-defiance-and-vengeance-178019) Widow of the prince of Kievan Rus’, she held the regency for her young son, while gaining vengeance (in a most impressive manner) against the tribe which had killed her husband. She was canonized by the Eastern Orthodox Church, holds the epithet “Equal to the Apostles,” and is revered in Ukraine for her bravery and defiance (where her story is of particular relevance today). Her story is that of a total badass.
