Yeah you're right no one ever carried too much gear around on a harness or webbing all day and hosed their knees.

30 pounds of gear is a drop in the ocean of evil over time practice and poor ergonomics training, factors which will explode your knees with as little as no gear.

30 pounds is like what people haul into the woods backpacking, for fun.

He's even wearing a belt with the shoulder straps. With that setup you'd hardly feel the weight. It'd be the physical dimensions of the gear that would cause more issue than anything, depending on the job.

OK, how are you supposed to operate this device safely.
If I was designing this I would put on more handles so that you run it with 2 people, but the handles are totally wrong for that.

An even bigger problem here is that he's got his foot stuck in the coil of hydraulic hoses and electric cables, so when he goes to move that thing up or down he's going to trip, fall backwards, and even odds it removes one or more limbs at that point.

If someone is decapitated, is that the removal of one limb, or all of the limbs?

No I explicitly said it wouldn't remove the head. Only a limb.

Doctor: I'm sorry, but you have gained 29.5 pounds over the last year. If you so much as think of eating today your knees are going to explode like Kool-Aid filled water balloons.

I can confirm. When I put on a few extra (dozen) pounds over the winter, I tried to get back into shape with some light jogging and after about 20 feet, the bursa sacs in my knees detonated. Took out every window in a 50 foot radius and ruptured both my eardrums.

Capital: A city designated as a legislative seat by the government or some other authority, often the city in which the government is located; otherwise the most important city within a country or a subdivision of it.




What I basically do at work. Got tired of losing my safety knife/strap cutter at the warehouse I worked at and having to get another one from the equipment (and pain med!) dispensing machines (it's Amazon) or stealing another one off of another desk. Or NOT losing them and ending up with a half dozen on my desk at home and another 7-8 floating around in my car. So I got one of the retractable badge holders from the security desk and stuck my knife onto that.

for the life of me i cant figure out the move he is using to open the carabiners that hold the drill and mini bolt cutter pliers. Is he just twisting the tool till it binds the swinging section then sliding it down along while its open?

Instead of opening the hasp and pulling it out, he pushes the outer part of the ring back into the hasp and the tool-ring is now in the center.

Canada's Worst Handyman from a few pages back is a trip. I started with season 4. If you squint the people seem pretty normal, Johnny and Angie are even kind of endearing. Now I'm onto the first episode of season 2, and it's completely insane.

Jaime getting poo poo talked constantly by his mother in law. Terry with his "man shed" filled with unused tools and an actual pinup bikini poster. Jeff who can't figure out how to use a measuring tape. Ruth who cannot distinguish straight or not straight lines. And Candace who learned about power tools from watching HGTV and can't drive a screw. It's so raw, every few minutes I feel like someone is going to have an accident worthy of this thread :ohdear: and everyone seems so unconcerned!

While pounding nails:
"86 swats to get that bad boy home"
"Nice."

Or when screwing together a workbench:
"Is that how you're supposed to build it?"
"Well that's how I'm gonna build it."

I can't stop watching.

Edit: Teaching Candace to use a hammer by hitting a watermelon with a sledge LOL
