I imagine that there wouldn't be much left to freeze, after shooting an Asian snakehead fish with .458 SOCOM out of an AR-pattern rifle. More like a "pink mist", than anytthing else.

You can see pretty clearly that there is some sort of ridged coating that changes what shade of grey you can see, depending on the angle, and the higher up the page the darker it appears to be.
There is also a moire pattern glimpsed on the diamond at various points in the video as it's moved around, presumably caused by some sort of lenticular coating interacting with the pixel layout of the camera sensor chip.

This "barnacle" appears to be larger and bulkier than a "boot".
I would also image that it would be possible to puncture the the suction skirt and remove it yourself. Slide a knife under the edge and give them a few cuts, no angle-grinder required.

What is a little sad is that the push for modernity has made some parts of buildings worse in terms of spreading disease than traditional materials.
A good example is the simple door handle or pushplate, formerly made of brass which self-disinfects (I think it might be the copper in the brass, but I don't know) and now usually made from stainless steel which must be disinfected manually

I had the kind-of impression that filing a lawsuit against the Axanar production was more about being jealous that a fan-film is so much closer to the original source (the TV series) in look, feel & story than (at least) the last two big production official movies that it made Paramount look bad in comparison.
Have a look at "Star Trek Continues": it looks exactly like the original series and even has Chris Doohan (the son of James) as the chief engineer "Scotty".
It's a bit sad when low-budget (Even Axanar, at least in Hollywood terms) fanflics are figuratively lightyears ahead of the official Paramount productions.

I've only ever known "toad in hole" or "toad in the hole" as sausages baked into a tray of batter.
At least this is true for the UK, Australia and most Commonwealth countries

Maybe your egg version is a regional thing?

No mention of Quentin Tarantino's horrid "South African" (or, is it meant to be "Australian"?) accent from Django: Unchained?
I think Jeff Jarratt was visibly wincing every time Quentin opened his mouth.

I can sort-of understand wanting to use a new technology that seems amazing to do wonderful things, it's just at the time when it wasn't really known how dangerous the byproducts would be.
Sort of like how fracking initially seemed like a non-destructive way to exctract natural gas, until it was done for real and ended up destroying the water table by either altering it's level or by contamination.

It looks like a panelbeater's tool for reshaping crumpled car body-panel corners from the inside.
It has a flat pein on the other side for flattening any ridges or bumps caused in the reshaping operation.

The expectation is that if it has a certain heft to the device then it is probably made of quality componants and will last a fair while, but if it weighs almost nothing then it's probably made of the cheapest plastic money can buy and the el-cheapo componants will crap-out very quickly.
