And it's a dupe of a link in the "Caution Retards" thread. VERY dumb idea. Not enough supervision, plus pouring money and toys on kids gives you bright, but dangerous kids.

I have partaken in stupid things in my life. That incident makes my things look super-smart in comparison.

Oh. That was way beyond stupid.

Those girls and boys will probably mate one day and have offspring.

They looked like they were going maybe 20 mph. People survive higher speed collisions in cars every day. It could be fatal if they whacked into concrete, but I just don't think it's a sure thing.

For those that wanted to see what happened after: You are sick and demented people!











With that said, I wish I could have seen what happened after.

As a matter of fact, it's more of a 1970s standard four-person nonautomatic Soviet playground carousel.

Holy crap. I hope that didn't die. What an embarrassing way to go.

Some people are unbelievably stupid and reckless.

Reminds me. The steepest street in the world is Baldwin Street in Dunedin, New Zealand (with a 38% gradient).

And I quote:

On Thursday, March 1, 2001, at about 2:30 a.m. University of Otago student Ana Louise North, 19, was killed when she and another 19-year-old student, Lindsay Peter Roxburgh, attempted to travel down the street inside a two wheeled rubbish wheelie bin. The bin collided with a parked trailer. North died instantly, and Roxburgh sustained serious head injuries.

"A spokesman for Crawley council described the stunt as "phenomenally dangerous". He said that the council had emailed the website in an effort to get the footage removed."

Yeah, we must keep people from seeing this clip! Keep them in the dark about what happens, we want more people to try it!

****ing morons.

How fast it looked like they were going versus how it looks when a car is traveling 20 mph.
