Cygnus.. Vismund Cygnus.

Hmm, I was watching AXN this one day and there's this new show called Wipeout. It's a game show. Tengok sendiri lah, malas nak cerita. Anyways, I have a habit of reading the subtitles while watching. And there's this one part where the contestant mengelak dari kena lepuk dengan this giant plastic rod. So the commentator said :

"Oh! And he jumps to the left to avoid from being impaled by the giant rod!"

The subtitles for that word that made me raised an eyebrow was :

"Oh! Lalu dia meloncat ke tepi untuk mengelak dari disula batang yang besar itu!."

OWW-EMM-GEE! The horror wei!!


Well, www.Dictionary.com states that the definition of Impale is:
