After considerable head scratching... the truck hit the pole, snapping it off somewhere below bumper height. The pole vaulted upward from the force of the impact, but firmly attached at the top by a lot of wires, slingshotted back through the windshield, thus skewering the offender for the authorities.

Now if you'll excuse me, I must bandage my head. :bandaid:

I'll buy that. I bet the coyote was driving. I can see it clear as day now.

a perfect correlation of the facts :D

A perfectly cromulent conclusion.

I've never watched The Simpsons, so wasn't aware of the origin(s) of 'cromulent'.

To me it always sounded vaguely like a 17th century word and, for a time, I wonder if referred to Oliver Cromwell.

I am severely discombobulated as a consequence.

Should give the Simpsons a go - it has moments of true genius.

A mate of mine is a devoted fan of the Simpsons and has watched each episode umpteen times.

He has three kids, now more or less adults, who probably pointed him in the right direction.

I can't get a few of my buddies to grasp that the The Simpsons is not a "children's cartoon", but actually written for adults.

They won't commit to Family Guy, either.

They "don't watch kids' shows."

Their loss.

Simpsons is some of the best satire on tv. Sometimes people mistake childlike for chiildish.

Well, I suppose that's what dogs do...

I hope the cat did this on purpose.

Cats rule, dogs drool![/somemovie]

It looks like a puzzle. It's begging to become a meme.

Yeah, don't chase pussy go play with you car.

How many dogpower is that engine, Bob?

eww

The hand looks like that of a young person. They are showing off, which is fine. It's their life. But as they age, they will learn, and gain the wisdom to know that intentionally bending your joints the wrong direction leads to even more joint problems. Just because you have flexible joints doesn't mean you should flex them more than they should normally be flexed.

Photoshop.

Look at the palm in relation to the finger knuckles.

Rolling shutter effect.

I think the hand pic is real.

C'mon, with fingers bending backwards from what is clearly the palm. :rolleyes:

Double jointed people can do that. The only question is can they do that with enough finger strength to counteract the double jointed thumb pushing from the opposite direction?
In this picture, the wall is pushing the fingers into that position. And I don't think this hand could hold a soda can, even though it can be put into that position.

But in this picture the fingers are doing it under their own power. Are they doing it with enough strength to oppose a thumb? Maybe. Maybe not.
Attachment 51125

I believe it's real. I can match the fingers-against-the-wall picture without any effort, and I'm not even double-jointed, just really flexible from years of popping my knuckles backwards.

Pushing against the wall is one thing but to stay wrapped around that can they must be glued or taped in place. I don't think he's holding up the can, more likely sitting on the keyboard.

Heh. I didn't even notice the keyboard. It's obvious now that the weight of the can is on the keyboard. But I still think the hand is real. It's just not holding the weight of the can.

I thought the finger knuckles looked too normal to be bent backward that far.

On the face of it, this is a standard issue WTF photo.
Who, after all, would build a glider in an attic?

It's a replica of the glider built by British POWs in Colditz Castle which was intended to be launched from the roof in an escape bid.
The attempt was never made as American troops reached the Castle before the glider could be used.

A few years ago, Channel 4 TV made a documentary about the escape plan and constructed a full size replica of the craft using the same materials and techniques.
Unlike the original endeavour, the replica glider was flown but, for safety reasons, it was radio controlled. It reached a meadow on the other side of the river from the castle and would have flown further but the decision was taken to crash land the craft due to houses nearby.

There's some video of the flight here taken by a spectator.



ETA Flight viewed from a different angle.

The cloth (?) covering on the plane (visible in the 'related videos' thumbnails after the vid plays) looks exactly like Grandmadigr's table cloth.

Found it...

Colditz Cock

Prison sleeping bags?!?!

What the hell was my Grandma up to?!

This might not be news to Dwellars on the other side of the pond, but...

I did not know Jason Statham was a dancer in music videos back in the day.

Here, about 35 seconds in:

That looks like Bruce Jenner. So I'd say the jury's out on that one.

Wait...WAIT...WAIT.

There's a beer that can only be sold in Wisconsin to undercover officers?:eyebrow:

These people up here are Krazy with a capital K.

What the hell?

I suspect superglue.

Or witchcraft.

Witchcraft and silver solder.

I would point out that several of those coins on the left are the kind with holes in the center, and I bet that makes it a trivial thing to balance those particular ones. The vertical coins would fit in the center holes at 4 contact points instead of at a very narrow line. Visualize a big monster truck tire standing up vertically in an open manhole.

There's obviously some skill going on with the stacking, but not nearly as much as if the coins had no center holes.

And there seems to be a suspicious looking defect in the bottom of that glass jar. Definitely looks like a crack.

The horizontal coins on the inside and outside are offset.

No tricks in my bar-trick...

It's one way to entertain young kids while waiting for food in a restaurant,
especially the suspense when you set each end of the toothpick on fire.

I learned that one with a quarter taking the place of the toothpick.



ETA:

If you have a flat rim on your glass (this one is a little on the round side), you can push that quarter right out to the very edge, and it looks for all the world like you're defying gravity.

I tried two different kinds of toothpick, on three different kinds of fork, and could not replicate Lamp's trick.

It is probably easier to set up with a quarter.
But even with no tricks, a bar-trick is a bar-trick,

And so... I guess you get to buy the next round. ;)

I don't see any other destruction, and that looks like a sculpture in the background. I bet it's "art."

art. agreed.

Intentional display. "Art" is subjective. :rolleyes:

Bruce for the win!

Nobody has dared call it art.

Here's a novelty who's ship has sailed... "Really scatters the gang when you throw this baby in their midst." Still will, just before you die.

If it only explodes once what do you do with the other 9 days and of your 10 day trial? :eyebrow: whoops my bad it explodes over and over nice toy if you live in Afghanistan

I think it would be even less welcome in Afghanistan. :eek:

You show me a video of you setting the ends of the quarter on fire, and I'll buy ya a case. :)
