#3 Probably the worst mugging I ever heard of was the attempted robbery of two world class, street fighting, very senior Kenpo black belts.

It ended up with the mugger fleeing for his life, buck naked, screaming, much of his backside an asphalt road rash, and large, irregular clumps of hair missing from his scalp.

#5 Caffene and methamphetamine?
Is that anything like an APC we used to use as a headache cure? (Aspirin Phenabarbitol Caffene)

#6 Ya ba (also Yaba, Yaa baa, Ya baa or Yah bah; Thai: ÂÒºéÒ, literally "madness drug") are tablets containing a mixture of methamphetamine and caffeine.

Alternative names
They are sometimes called Bhul Bhuliya in India and Shabu in the Philippines, Indonesia and Japan. Streetnames in North Thailand include 'Chocaleee' as the taste left in the mouth is somewhat sweet.

The drug is also known as "Nazi speed" as it was originally created by German scientists during World War II to increase the endurance of their soldiers.
