Before all you smarty pants start squaking about a quad or ATV or whatnot, that is not the sound an atv motor makes.
Just from a couple views it seems to be a reach forklift, but I ... I dunno this seems kinda odd that it'd bend the frame like that... again I watched it, seems normal now that I am focused, the transmission linkages are at the bend points. Seems real to me !


It's a logging cable skidder. Basically a winch on wheels. It laughs at 5 ton trees.

Very cool, not sure the point of the flying mode, but I can see it being useful to have around so long as you remember to bring your rope, unless it stores the rope in the wheel. Some of the trees they anchored to seemed a bit thin though, then again I guess a person and an ATV doesn't need one like you would use with a truck.

If they are whaling in another nations waters, then by all means, that government should step in and raise hell. Are these anti whalers members of the navy? Are they official representatives of the government in question?

I did make a bit of an assumption while stating my opinion, in with that assumption, I did technically commit a logical fallacy. Since this seems to upset KnivesOut, I will attempt to correct the wording of said opinion.

Ahem:

"While I can not see the future, nor accurately predict the reactions of my fellow man, I propose the following: Had these anti whaling activists been of a different skin color,and nationality, and had they been harassing American fishing vessels, I believe the American government would consider them to be committing acts of terrorism and would take action accordingly."

I know I had a bit of a run-on sentence there, but I figure I can always correct my grammar later.

I'm glad their ship got rammed. I don't care one way or the other if the Japanese kill whales. It is not my place to tell the Japanese what they can and can not hunt. That is a decision to be made by the Japanese government. The only reason I side with the Japanese in this case, is because what the folks from Whale Wars are doing would be considered terrorism if it were done to us.
Imagine if the crew of that ship wasn't white, and was harassing American crab fishermen or something of that nature. They would all be locked up in one of our lovely maximum security hotels and interrogated for information on their terror cell connections. It is a ridiculous double standard. If groups of Hindus (to whom cows are sacred) started racing around American cattle ranches on 1.5 million dollar ATVs and harassing farm hands, we would have a whole bunch of arrested (and probably dead) Hindu activists on our hands.
The crew of that little ship should consider themselves lucky that the Japanese aren't as trigger happy as we are in the "civilized west".

They're whaling in waters where they're not supposed to be. It's not up to the Japanese government because they're outside their legal jurisdiction. They're poaching animals in international waters, or in US waters.
Does that change your ridiculous logical fallacy at all?

It's an ATV. Why is he afraid to drive it off the road?

Translation: "EA realizes it screwed up by letting Modern Warfare 2 be released unopposed and is trying to catch up months later with an inferior-looking game, hoping that people frustrated with the MW2 multiplayer experience would switch over to what is essentially the same game from a different publisher. Also, they have ATVs."

Upvote for the collective "ouch" heard from the crowd when the ATV hits the guy. Even if it's in poor taste.

i'm pretty sure the atv landed on him. it was moving before it hit him but very very limp afterwards. I'd say he's probably paralyzed.

Looks like the ATV just missed him and crashed into the ramp. But if it actually made contact, I'm not sure that guy would ever walk again.

M. E. T. H.

Not all southerners are stupid... But there does seem to be high correlation of ignorance with ATV use.

anyone have a translation what what the hell the guy driving atv said?
i have a built-in hillbilly translator, a drunk-speak translator and a no teeth translator but the combo of all three BLEW MY MIND...
