Some Humans are AOK

BSR says...

I have a car window breaker/seat belt cutter in my car. I wouldn't be surprised if that guy injured his hand trying to punch that window out. He thought about trying it again but I guess he learned the first time. It's suggested you break a car window in the corner and not the center.

I also have an air horn and pepper spray in the driver door pouch in the event of a wild animal threat during a body removal in remote locations or any other threats.

Birds Aren't Real, so no threat there.

Bicycling Crowded Brooklyn Bridge With Loud Bike Car Horn

newtboy says...

All these people are walking and loitering in the freaking bike lane.

As planned, there would be no pedestrians on the left 1/2 of the path, but people can't follow the rules. I would want a truck air horn for my bike and a nice spiked leather jacket, make their ears and shoulders bleed if they want to walk on the bike path.

Scary encounter with Mountain Lion cubs and mom

BSR says...

I took a 2,500 mile mountain bike trip back in 2011. I was aware of the problem of loose dogs chasing bikes. With two saddlebags strapped to my bike with my belongings I knew I would not be able to outrun a Chihuahua let alone a pitbull, German shepherd or a bear.

I carried an air horn from Walmart that I attached to the bike with Velcro for a quick grab. I had no less than 7 dogs surprise me during my trip. The air horn was very effective in showing them who's boss. Their ears fold back and their tail tucked between their legs while running in the opposite direction.

Even if a dog managed to grab me, I doubt it would be able to withstand the hurt it would inflict blasting in its ear at close range.

Edit: I'm assuming no one thought I would shove the air horn in the dogs butt.

Maybe not even a gun but a loud horn would be enough

Face to Face With A Mountain Lion

BSR says...

Go to Walmart.
Sporting Goods section.
Grab an Air Horn.
Clip it to your belt.

When you're out of options, you'll know what to do. It's not so much how big you are than how loud you are.

If you're riding a bike it works great on loose dogs and bears too. No harm. No foul.

Hiker Followed By Bears

BSR says...

A great way to scare off bears and loose dogs while biking or hiking is to carry an air horn. Walmart sells them in the boating section. A can of compressed air with a loud, shrill blast. Boaters use them sometimes to signal bridge keepers to raise the drawbridge.

Vuvuzelas: the tiny plastic horn "ruining" the 2010 World Cu

Friesian says...

I really really dislike the vuvuzela. It's made it nigh on impossible to hear the commentary during some of the games, and I had to stop watching the last 20 minutes of the South Africa v. Mexico game as my brain was pounding.

They also drown out singing fans, which in my opinion are far more entertaining, and contribute to the atmosphere much more than the locust plague of biblical proportions. There were hints of songs breaking through the cacophony during the England v. USA game, and it really improved the viewing experience (let's just not talk about Green )

Finally, the players themselves say they don't like them.... The French team bemoaned the fact that they couldn't get any sleep, nor communicate during the game, while other players have also spoken out against them.

There's also the "oh no they damage your hearing" argument, but I'm less into that as a reason to get rid of them. Football games have always been noisy, and air horns (and drums) can easily reach similar (if not quite the same) decibel levels. It's more the incessant droaning on and on that really gets to me.

I'd love to hear what some South African players think of them. The man with the fashion sense said that the players love them, but I simply can't believe that unless I hear it from the players themselves - it just seems ludicrous to me.
