I’ve got a manual transmission car that often doesn’t like to start, so when I stop by the side of the road I often leave it running and in neutral, relying only in the parking brake which is weak and useless. One day this will be me.

Buy a chock block and a rope. Or adjust your parking brake. There's probably a youtube how-to video about it.

That's extra steps. You're getting a little more Red Green with it, which is fine, but I'm a lazier man than Red Green and will use what works. Also that setup would need two blocks on ropes, in front of, and behind the wheel. One for uphill parking, one for down. You only need to chock one wheel for it to be effective anyhow, just the right side for the incline.

No, it should still work as long as a tire needs to drive over it because then it needs to lift the car the height of the chock block to continue.

6y old girl died in a Colorado amusement ride that drops 110ft into a mineshaft. I can only assume someone lost their 'You must be this tall' sign. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj1yp2nZnqg

I haven't been to an amusement park in a few years, but this is a much more pointed waiver than I'm used to.quote:“INJURIES/AND OR DEATH may result” and “THE UNDERSIGNED hereby ASSUME ALL RISKS,” plus another sentence that reads, “THE UNDERSIGNED understand and agree that a seat belt IS IN NO WAY A GUARANTEE OF SAFETY.” also quote:“We don’t put shoulder restraints on the side of your head which makes it a little bit more scary, a little bit more exciting.” https://kdvr.com/news/problem-solvers/deadly-amusement-ride-designed-without-shoulder-restraints-problem-solvers-investigation/

I'm surprised the metal feet don't get smaller and smaller as an additional 'gently caress you'. Maybe they do and the video just doesn't show it!

Wedding rings in tough materials can be OSHA right? Inconel. Couldn't resist a ring made from rocket engines. I promise not to wear it in the workshop, thread. My ED Nurse friend has confirmed they can cut it.

ReelBigLizard posted:Wedding rings in tough materials can be OSHA right? with super hard and uncuttable rings, you can shatter them pretty easily. Take a standard vice grip, close the grip over the ring, and tighten til the ring is comfortably gripped. Release the vice grips then tighten another 1/4 turn or so. When you close the grips again over the ring it will shatter.

There should be a term for drivers that encounter a situation where it is plain to see they shouldn't enter, but then they realize they have to do some stuff on the other side of the situation so they just calmly and deliberately drive into it.

I just stumbled across a youtube channel whose gimmick basically seems to be "drop heavy things from very high up on other things". Which, you know, fair enough. But then the first thing they do in the video I click is this: https://i.imgur.com/QkUri24.mp4 Yes, it's soft ground and the object is heavy enough not to be moved much laterally by wind, but still. That's like one slip, stumble, or bounce away from a very very messy end.

Boba Pearl posted:Maybe I'm wrong but that ending bit looks pretty CGI. Nah, the How Ridiculous guys always have multiple camera angles and slow mo shots, and they've dropped a wide enough range of things into things (bowling ball into trampoline, giant dart into bulletproof glass, axe blade into giant glass ball) that they'd have to have a very dedicated CGI team. They have one video where they spent six days throwing basketballs off a 200m cliff trying to make a basket. They're overly enthusiastic and not as safety conscious as they should be (they accidentally kept burning their clothes with the giant glass ball in one video), but they're actually doing that stuff.

Sure, they could slip, but that tower is specifically made for dropping stuff off of and the ground is prepared so that stuff doesn't bounce. For that you need a trampoline. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZV6Hb7-d4E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9-hiESBis0

I think you're thinking of metal composites like tungsten carbide.

If it's a metallic alloy and not a carbide it won't shatter easily. If you wear a ring that isn't clearly gold or silver, expect it to be cut off using a diamond wheel. E:soak your ring in wd40 in a 250 deg oven for a week and hit it with a hammer. Let me know if it breaks. Samuel L. Hacksaw fucked around with this message at 15:13 on Sep 7, 2021 |
