Fancy yourself as a CSI?
New scientist show you bloostains and you work out how they were made.

*Q: How was this bloodstain created?*
*A: Bloody footprint*
Is that really all it takes to be a CSI?

The main quality you need is to be Smug. Very smug an all knowing smugness.

This like the old ad you used to get in comic books, 'If you can draw this picture' it was basically a piss easy question (like the TV quiz ones) to get you to send them money for their drawing course, or I suppose crime scene training.

Blood pouring down a wall is a picture of thick red paint pouring down a BOOK.

I refuse to believe blood stain analysis involves only "oh, look at this big splatter... I therefore conclude A DROP FELL FROM A LARGE HEIGHT!" - 'cos then we'd have 5 year olds coming out of primary school art lessons ready to take on the World's worst criminal minds.
Also, this teaches me that blood seems to behave just like coffee, maybe a bit thicker.

I deal with blood stain analysis experts at work quite a lot. Their favourite kind of pattern is a nice spatter from an impact into already spilt wet blood.
