#5. This is how I caught my friend from her likely death. The cliff was rounded, so to see the creek at the bottom she went evermore past the vertical. It was when she began to slide on the polished Sierra granite that I grabbed her by the belt.
On the top of stone mountain in Georgia they have a chain link fence at the top. Since it's a large volcanic dome I heard that people kept creeping forward to get a better look until they kept sliding forward.
#9. We had a lot of fun in rocketry as a family. The enormous rocket dad built did a nose dive from about 100 feet and buried the nose with the engines still roaring. Funnier than all get out. When it popped the chute it simply became engulfed in fire.
As a kid, I remember one of 5he amateur rocketeers shooting his rocket into the sky with an Estes “D” engine. The problem was, it was not designed for that engine. The rocket did a U-turn at about 100 feet, and hit the ground burying its nose about a foot in, and cracking up the rest of the rocket. As he approached to retrieve it, the parachute charge went off and covered the doomed rocket with the chute. The deployment o& the chute got us all laughing.
#3. In 1978 I worked one summer rebuilding track near the Montana/Alberta border. We did that work with shovels and tongs. We did not have that automation. It was very hard work and I didn't last long. The money was shit as well, but they paid IN CASH ON FRIDAYS. Most of the guys who worked that job didn't have band accounts, It was a fucking weird time in my life
MN Steel, It is an R/C car I was wrong on the exact model it's the full size TRX4 not the mini which makes it a 1/10 scale. watch the gif again and you will see a persons leg at the end (most likely the guy driving it). Oh and the TRAXXAS sticker on the truck is a dead giveaway.
#9 - way to small of an engine, waaaaaaayyyyyyyy to long of a delay. My crashes tend to be a lot more kinetic, with significant rocket surgery for the patient to survive.
#4 - Good rubber band trick, or you could change over to Robertson (square) drive screws. I did the switch about ten years ago. They won't cam out like Phillips, and they stay on the end of the screwdriver so you won't need three hands. Hard to find in the U.S., but all over the place in Canada.

#7, when the acid hasn't worn off yet.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I thought, she is lit up, looking around to see if anyone has noticed.
Delete#4, meanwhile, in Sumter County, AL
ReplyDeleteNope, there's no building that long in the whole county. Our old family cemetary is 2000' west of Sicolocco Creek.

ReplyDelete#9 has to be a metaphor for something, probably sex.
ReplyDeleteYep. A bit of fizz but no penetration followed by popping off at the wrong time.

ReplyDeleteJagoff!
#4 is cool but fake in that it's an R/C car. Traxxas TRX4m if I'm not mistaken.
ReplyDeleteEric.
Hard to fake 6-inch clay...
