The Greatest Shot In Television

Accident At Blake's Truck

Extremely subtle product placement

Backdraft training (wait for it)

bitterbug says...

Look for flashover videos too.
Nothing like seeing the fire on one side of the room and you think your safe, to get to the exit but the superheated gases travelling along the ceiling over your head dip down and ignite the opposite side of the room on fire.

I WAS SAFE YOU IDIOT!

Terrible flaw in expensive crowdfunded padlock

bitterbug says...

The *average* padlock isn't. But there are very high quality locks in the 80 dollar plus range that protect against people with tools.
They may not stop someone from getting past them in an isolated spot, but they're hardened enough that a person with a grinder will need 15 or more minutes ... and with that kind of noise and risk of attention it's not worth it.
So buddy goes and knocks off your master lock with a hammer

Meh, padlocks are not for securing valuable property or for securing property against someone with any sort of tools at all. They are for preventing opportunistic theft. 30 seconds to defeat the lock is plenty long enough for that. Of course, that is a pretty stupid design, so good video nonetheless. If I owned one already, a little solder or permanent loctite on the inner screws would probably do the trick.

Mostly though, The lock company lost me at $100 for the lock. A traditional dial is not *that* hard to work and I'd be worried about false negatives and dead batteries even with a high-quality finger print reader. Just buy a $10 padlock at the hardware store to lock up your garbage cans, or proper u-lock or quality cable to lock up your $600 bicycle (ie, something that will require 15 minutes to defeat).

When you potentially get to sue Coca-Cola for infringement

bitterbug says...

Yup. When I was a little kid in the 70s my drunk neighbors would take their Firebirds and Dusters "out for a rip".
Those were also the days when nobody cared they were driving drink on the local roads like they were the Duke boys

Odd, as a Canadian (from Ontario even), I've never heard of this guy or his video and "out for a rip" has generally been a well established phrase used by motorheads for who knows how long - but certainly well before 2015. Still, best of luck, definitely shouldn't let massive corporations get away with trademark infringement; they certainly don't look the other way when the little guys accidentally slip up.

Just Following Instructions

Man falls Off Motorcycle

bitterbug says...

I saw a picture of a guy whose lower jaw had been torn off sitting in Emergency. There was nothing to put back.
I'd never wear any less than a full-face helmet after seeing that.

Good advocacy for a fully closed helmet that covers your whole face (among other gear)


That really did not look good.

Nope

bitterbug says...

He missed out on an awesome experience.
There were skunks living under the tree in our front yard in Toronto, and when I'd sit on the front steps the babies would all come over and stand up in a line with their noses peeking over the bottom step.
Don't bother the family and nobody gets sprayed. You really have to harass or scare them for it to happen.

Pandamonium as a lady just tries to do her job

bitterbug says...

A bit of cleaning, plus enrichment and fun for the pandas, and entertainment for the visitors

Pretty sure this is exactly what's supposed to be happening. Otherwise she'd just sweep the leaves under the door and collect them on the other side.
