| | It is important to note that the needle does not enter the spinal cord or nerves because the test is done in the lower back, below the level to which the spinal cord extends. | | | The spinal fluid drips out through the needle into tubes, is collected, and sent to a lab for analysis. | | | After the preparation has been completed, the child is positioned on an exam table so that the spaces between the vertebrae (bones of the spine) are as wide as possible. |

| | Review: This Is Spinal Tap |
| | This Is Spinal Tap is constructed to resemble the work of a genuine low-budget documentarian, except that the tone, instead of being earnest, is mocking. | | | Despite having a razor-sharp edge, This Is Spinal Tap is actually a gentle (and, at times, almost reverential) satire. | | | After having been granted unprecedented access to the group's activities, Marty is able to capture the day-to-day grind of what it means to be a rock star on tour. |

| | "This Is Spinal Tap" has also created a whole new world of characters, many of whom-believe it or not-you come to care for by the end of the tour. | | | DiBergi decides instead to follow the British-based Spinal Tap on their American tour in six years and in the process create the definitive rockumentary. | | | But like all parody, it requires a certain frame of mind to be appreciated and is hardly what you'd call univeral. |

| | Spinal Tap (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | This article is about the band; a spinal tap is also an informal name for a lumbar puncture. | | | Spinal Tap has had a succession of drummers, all of whom have died under odd circumstances: one in a "bizarre gardening accident"; another "choked on vomit," (although it was never determined whose vomit it was, it was not his own) and a third from apparent spontaneous human combustion. | | | In 1994, The Return of Spinal Tap was released on video; most of this was live material from a 1992 performance at the Royal Albert Hall, but it also included some interviews and follow-up on the band members. |

| | One interesting change that Guffman and Best in Show both made to the Spinal Tap formula is the removal of the filmmaker as a character. | | | There have been several high-profile fictumentaries made since This is Spinal Tap (and many more low-profile) but none of them has managed to overtake it as the undisputed king of fictumentaries. | | | Without normal-guy Marty as a contrast, the band might start to seem normal. |
