You don't actually get tetanus from rusty metal. You get it from rusty metal that has been sitting in the dirt, which is actually where the bacteria live. The metal just works to introduce it into your system.

So if it's rusty metal bolted to the side of a truck, you're not going to get tetanus from it.

For everyone finding this sort of vintage total disregard for risk, I'd suggest watching the following film, Gizmo!

It's a bunch of archive footage of people doing foolish things for very little reason, other than the spirit, the mountain, and man's rexiphor.

Everyone in the thread needs to watch this! The pro-est of proclicks. Every minute is a new thing that is post worthy.

The trampoline is a nice touch. Although Photonicinduction's original Washing Machine Self Destructs was quite possibly the originator of the genre and still one of the best in its class, I'll still say that the following is easily the best washing machine destruction video. It's really got everything in it that you'd possibly want: a dramatic arc, tension and a steady buildup to a peak that is unrivaled to this day. The Citizen Kane of washing machine destruction videos, if you will.

These things are really scary because they have 0 safety sensors and will slam right in to you if you walk in to the path, and it's just following a pre-programmed sequence. There's also 0 cones in this video so I'm walking away from my computer for safety now

There was a similar video years ago but there I think they at least had the area closed off and there might've been a helmet. This looks like a very sketchy travelling circus thing where they'll set it up at your place for a party or something.

Saw a biker with some horns strapped to his handlebars that were about as wide as a car. I can just imagine him snagging them on something as he is making a pass.

If its safe enough for the brick people its safe enough to be in the back of a council house.

Any chance maybe this video is sped up? Seems like the Lego one is at least a moderate speed. Not that it still couldn't instantly murder you if it chose to.
