The element, the moon, the Greek mythology? What happened?

No, no. The small tourist sub that imploded with the founder of the company and a number of tourists on-board. The only good thing is that the implosion only took a few milliseconds, so likely little recognition/pain by those killed. There is some speculation that they did hear some precursor cracking noises though, which would have been bad...

Shouldn't there be a peak in 2017 also for when the movie came out?

The tire industry has pulled off the biggest scam of all. Even though a flat tire only lacks air at the bottom, they sell you a completely new tire.

Reminds me of
Me sitting in my wheelchair, no arms no legs, and operating it with a mouth pencil.
Someone comes up to me. "I know you. Aren't you Mike? what the frick ?"
"Hi buddy. All my friends now call me Bob."
"Ok. Bob, what happened to you?"

"What happened. Well there I was swimming in the ocean when a giant white came up and starred me in the eye. I don't like being starred at so I gave him a good punch in the nose. He shook his head and then all hell broke loose. He bit off my right leg. I boxed his ears. He tore off my left leg. I smacked him one and knocked out his front teeth. He ripped out my left arm. I poked his eyes out. He grabbed my right arm, twisted it off and swam away. I thought. Yeah you bugger. Had enough haven't you. "

"My God. That's terrible. Lucky they found you in time."

"Yeah. By God's grace they found me just bobbing with the waves."

Nursery rhyme from Georgia:

Peach porridge hot,
Peach porridge cold,

Nine days old.
