This Group Is All About People Ignoring Safety As If They’re Immortal, Here Are 40 Of The Worst (New Pics)

🤜🏼🤛🏼

That pile of blocks isn't stable. Here's a video with an example of doing cribbing properly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkVx6eQ3l4M

Even if that's true, the cables are aligned at a very steep angle so I think it's irrelevant as it's still highly dangerous

It's not when you fall down 6 feet to the ground... it's when you roll uncontrollably 1/2 mile down the side of the incline that's a bītch.

Depends on where this is. Ghost Town In The Sky had a chairlift that at one point due to a wash was over 60 feet high. Fall out and you're landing on boulders.

I wouldn't want to fall 2 meters, and anyway, at what stage do you decide, "Oh, we're going up high, I ought to hold on properly now!"?

Remember roasting your butt on a metal sliding board on a hot day?

My mom was telling me how I would stand between the front seats as a toddler, zero car seat, zero seat belts, just a little projectile poised for action.

And car manufacturers fought the very idea of installing seat belts in the first place.

I think we didn't have them when I was a kid. I remember my mother demonstrating how she would fling her arm out to block me from going through the windshield in an emergency. It was a fantasy. There's no way she could have done it, while trying not to get thrown herself. Of course, these days, kids wouldn't even be riding in the front.

Cybertrucks are Top Tier Douchebaggery.

The allure has worn off. Tesla is having real problems selling any of the Cybertruck models now. There are stories that they have gone through their entire reservation list and many, many buyers have backed out for whatever reason.

I have counted 5 recalls. Is that Biiblical? My new Jeep GC Trailhawk has had more recalls.

Turns out you -can- polish a túrd.

I've got at least a dozen near me. They are ugly as c**p

Or the Rivian.

Yes the cops in Marin county told us they are buying Tesla's for rapid response because they go from 0 to 60 in the blink of an eye

Yet. If this becomes a thing, I'm sure they'll make some.

Yep. They covered this on MythBusters, which was later used in court to reverse the conviction of a guy accused of blowing up a gas station & killing some people with his cigarette, movie style (and coerced into a confession). It's also been independently scientifically tested to be not possible. Out of 1,000 attempts, it failed every time. It doesn't work. However... gotta light the cigarette somehow and a flame or plasma arc could do it.

It's hard to light the spilled gasoline. It's very easy to light gasoline fumes.

Wrong. It is difficult to light liquid petroleum with a cigarette. Vapour on the other hand goes boom. Sunny day, warm concrete, plenty of vapour there to ignite!

I saw an A-Team episode when Face was about to be shot and he threw a cigarrette on a gasoline barrell and it floated and that was it. The most realistic episode. (By the way, he survived)

You sound like someone who tried.

It's the fumes that get lit. Still dangerous....

I thought they did this with Diesel, not gasoline? But that's just the stories from here.

At no point did "they" have a "gasoline bucket" to "end cigarettes"...???
