This doctrine was not applicable in a memorable case stemming from an overly exuberant VJ Day celebration in San Francisco. In an infamous decision, the Supreme Court of California applied this doctrine to show the liability of an entire surgical team in Ybarra v. Spangard. In order for this doctrine to apply, a plaintiff must show an absence of contributory negligence, an accident that "normally does not happen without negligence," and the defendant's exclusive control of the instrumentality. For 10 points, name this doctrine in tort law from the Latin for "the thing speaks for itself."
