Bono
Bono’s accident occurred on September 16, 2014 and he was rushed to New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center's Emergency Department, where he underwent "multiple X-rays and CAT scans" followed by five hours of surgery led by Dr. Lorich.
Bono suffered some very serious injuries, including a "facial fracture involving the orbit of his eye," three separate fractures of his left shoulder blade and a fracture of his left humerus bone in his upper arm, the bone shattering in six different places and tearing through his skin.”
Dr. Lorich was praised for doing a remarkable job on saving the singer’s mobility. It was feared at one point that Bono could have lost the use of his left arm as a result of the crash.

Dr. Jim Gates: Supersymmetry, String Theory and Proving Einstein Right
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUHkhB366tE
https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/view-gates.html
What may have started as a science fiction speculation—that perhaps the universe as we know it is a computer simulation—has become a serious line of theoretical and experimental investigation among physicists, astrophysicists, and philosophers. Neil deGrasse Tyson, Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium, hosts and moderates a panel of experts in a lively discussion about the merits and shortcomings of this provocative and revolutionary idea. The 17th annual Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate took place at The American Museum of Natural History on April 5, 2016. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgSZA3NPpBs

- Announced in 1949, the building was, imaginatively, called the Chrysler Building East. Despite having its main entrance on Third Avenue side, the address was given as a 42nd Street one -- due to the then-seedier nature of the avenue. With the demolition of the disturbing Third Ave. Elevated Railway in 1956 -- which started a general development boom on the avenue -- the address was accordingly changed to 666 Third Avenue.
- The Kent Building or Credit Agricole Indosuez Building was completed in 1952 to the eastern blockfront of the block better known as the location for the Chrysler Building. https://www.emporis.com/buildings/115170/chrysler-building-east-new-york-city-ny-usa
"Constructed in 1952 as the Kent Building and one of Midtown’s earliest International Style skyscrapers, 666 Third Avenue was incorporated into the Chrysler Center under a renovation..." https://www.vidaris.com/project/chrysler-building-east-666-third-avenue
