Don't travel in the former Yugoslavia, apparently!

I'm curious about the "idian medicine man" who happened to have "anti buffalo antedote".

I assume an anti-buffalo antidote would turn you into a buffalo?

And I couldn't find any record of a 19 people dying in a 1963 air accident in Yugoslavia (not saying it didn't happen, maybe it wasn't recorded...)

But... something is fishy...
