Well this poor PSD ended life in a gruesome way. A little medieval drawn and tripled. Its Cale Thompson's who is Brian Thompson (BTS) son.

I am sure it had a girdle. Even if he didn't it wouldn't have helped that. That engine ripped apart from the top down. The pistons pushed the block part from the looks of it.
