| The phrase силиконовая грудь means silicon breast [implant]. You are not likely to need one of these in Russia, but I had to blog about it because I came across this headline and story the other day: |

| Силиконовая грудь лопается при ДТП.¹ |
Silicon breast bursts during auto accident. |
| Как отметили в полиции, грудь Елены сработала во время аварии подобно подушке безопасности.
|
As the police department noted, Elena's breasts worked like an airbag during the accident. |
| В отличие от водителя другой машины, Елена Маринова не получила серьезных травм. |
In contrast to the driver of the other car, Elena Marinova did not receive serious injuries. |
| Однако, во время аварии силиконовые имплантанты в ее груди не выдержали нагрузки и лопнули. (source | mirror) |
During the accident, however, the silicon implants in her breasts could not withstand the load, and they burst. |
Another headline reveals that silicon breast implants may also protect you from terrorism:
| Силиконовая грудь спасла израильтянку от ракеты "Хезболла". (source | mirror) |
A silicon breast implant has saved an Israeli woman from a Hezbollah rocket. |
| Имплантант, вне всякого сомнения, остановил осколок и не дал ему продвинуться вглубь тела девушки. |
There is no doubt that the implant stopped the shrapnel and prevented it from proceeding more deeply into the woman's body. |

Perhaps if our previous President George W. Bush had known this, he could have set up a breast implant division of the Department of Homeland Security. Really, ladies, get your implants now: it's just another way you can participate in making America safe.
The one downside, I suppose, is that the implant will prevent you from going into outer space: |
| Эксперты не исключают, что искусственный бюст может просто взорваться в полёте из-за перепадов давления. |
Experts do not discount the possibility that an articifical bust might explode in flight due to falling pressure. |
| Это обстоятельство уже стало предметом для шуток. |
This situation has already become the subject of jokes. |
| Как заявил один из специалистов, полёты в космос могут стать проверкой на натуральность груди. (source | mirror) |
As one of the specialists declared, space flights could become a way to prove that one's bust is natural. |
¹ ДТП = дорожно-транспортное происшествие traffic accident (lit. road-transportation incident)
