Darwin at his finest

In Jackass, did the guys managing the rental car shop already know that the car was being brought in "damaged", or was it a suprise to them?

No, but the owner did, same with the hardware store and the toilet which we paid a bunch of money for. We pretaped the bottom of the toilet, then had the crew tape the top of the bowl afterwards and throw it in the dumpster.

I hope those two lost their ability to reproduce.

Yeah but Huge, "Safety Advisor for Jackass-The Movie" !?

What a tough gig. With that on your resume who could bump-out you out of any safety director position that you wanted? . ... Maybe, a NASA Safety Director? . .. I don't think so.

You saw my shop. Its a tough job, but someone has to do it. The fact is that for all their stupid stunts, the worst we saw was a sprained wrist on that movie.

Sad thing is, a hudred and fifty years ago, train and bank robbers were the thugs of the day. Today we almost think they are cool. What is it goona be like in 100 years from now, will our great grand kids think that gang bangers are cool? Some do already. What are they gonna think of the terrorists?

Actually got it from my Dad. He bought it from the guy who raced it at the 1929 World Cup on the Isle of Man. That year Rudge entered six bikes and they finished 1,2&3 (mine was 6th I've been told). Its a factory racer. Single cylinder 500 cc four valve bronze head. Only wiring is the wire from the magneto to the spark plug. No kick start, bump start with compression release. Straight piped, a real thumper until it get going. Came with a factory guarantee of 100 mph.

Ok - here's a scenario. One guy on a bike/board with a bunch of his mates & decides to jump something clear something - whatever. He makes it. What happens next. The ramp gets moved back up, the obstacles are added etc & then he tries again. This keeps going until the inevitable bone grinding happens. Then everyone goes home happy that they've found the limit. Never been any different really has it.
