Our unit had a Spec 4 decide against using the tire cage and hose extension. He was in a hurry because it was late on a Friday and nobody could leave until maintenance was done. What a mess.
My first split rim experience was with aircraft wheels specifically Lear jets. They took 75 psi, never had one fail. I was 16 at the time and the mechanics gave me this as a test I reckon.
#10 tires are dangerous. Just heard a story a few weeks ago from a retired Air force mechanic that came back from lunch and a fellow newbie mechanic had literally been blown in half by mounting a landing tire. He had told him to wait until he got back to mount it
In 45 Years as a Jet Mechanic, I never once used a "Tire Cage" to Inflate one of those big Tie-Bolt Wheels.... Because a 40-Ply, 6-Foot Diameter Tire being filled to 210 PSI from a Nitrogen Bottle is just going to make Shrapnel out of it. Large or Small, the way we did it was lay the Wheel flat on the Ground, and have a 50-Foot Hose to it; then let it sit for half an Hour (if Time permitted). Even 'Adding Air' to a Tire on a Plane was done with the Locking Chuck and 10-Foot Hose.
Interacting with a little kid and being a PART OF THE COMMUNITY is NOT "hopping around like a Kansas City faggot," "Anonymous." The older among us can remember when this is how cops were. They walked the beat in your neighborhood. You knew them. They knew you. They actually GAVE A SHIT. I guess a person who has no name has nothing going for them but bitterness...
I remember those days when cops were part of the community. I've had cops in uniform umpiring little league games, sitting at the fountain and having a soda shooting the breeze with you. Those were good days and this gif took me down memory lane. Thanks man.
“ The older among us can remember when this is how cops were.” That was then, this is now. This gif is a rarity in a world of kneeling for BLM and having “YOU’RE FUCKED!” dustcovers. The country we grew up in no longer exists.
#4 Holy Crap. Does no one remember high school Science class anymore? Mercury is very toxic and can be absorbed through the skin. Gold miners used to get poisoned with the stuff.
https://wwwn.cdc.gov/TSP/MMG/MMGDetails.aspx?mmgid=106&toxid=24&os=os%2F&ref=app mercury vapor esp heated is the major danger - skin contact is supposedly not much an issue but inhalation of fumes is deadly if the dose is high
#4 Had a chemistry teacher tell a funny story about a kid in his lab who was fooling around and accidentally swallowed about half a test tube of the stuff. So they held the kid upside down and out came the mercury.
Tons of potential energy I am inflated tire. The bigger the tire the more potential for damage. Even a bicycle tire has enough damage to screw up your fingers. Truck tires can and have killed.

ReplyDeleteSplit rim fail...
DeleteWidowmaker. Had an old dump truck with split rims. Couldn’t get anyone to change the tires.
DeleteThe old deuce and a half and 5 ton cargo trucks had split rims. We also had a tire cage in the shop.

#9. Nothing like a cop hopping around like a Kansas City faggot!
ReplyDeleteLighten the fuck up. It's a cute gif and was posted as such. Quit skipping your meds.

DeleteExactly.
What goes on with #4?

DeleteBright Eyes - the gif reminds me of my friend and Riverbank cop Ripley. He'd do something like that in a heartbeat.

And he's doing it wearing about 10-20 lbs of equipment while being overweight. He's a good guy.
DeleteWhoa, whoa, whoa. Kenny you said Riverbank without saying the best part.
DeleteMy bad. Riverbank City of Action.
