With all of the extreme sports videos around, this one is just...funny. Something light for a change.

He’s a punk.

Try that jive with a Jackson M5 and one hundred kilos of wet concrete wheeling along 2x6’s on a muddy jobsite. Real men do it everyday.

That’s the real reason the krauts lost the big one.

Kids, don’t try these stunts at home. This was a professional wheelbarrow......ummmm........wheeler I guess......in a controlled environment.

An amateur crossing his arms like that would have a wheelbarrow wipeout.

Gay.
I hired a concrete guy to put in a sidewalk around the back of my yard. Because the wife wanted it. Anyway, the concrete truck showed up and started to dump concrete into a wheelbarrow. A guy would shuttle the wheelbarrow from the back yard to the street, and must of made a hundred trips.

The wheelbarrow guy had one arm that ended at the elbow.

In a discussion with a German friend regarding WW's I and II I said:

"You guys got ass kicked twice"

His response:

"Yah, but it took ze whole fuckin world to do it."

He had a good point.

Yes, these are the kinds of things men do who do not have a woman in their lives.

I guess it's better than dressing up like a character from Star Wars and going to conventions.

As a young man I worked concrete and once let a wheelbarrow full of mud get away from me. I tried to explain to the boss man that I didnt know much bout machinery but he didnt get the joke.

Reminds me of a Sunday comic strip years ago based on an Everyman type of guy. I think it was Mister Berger, so let’s say that’s it. Anyway, he bet his he-man neighbor that he could beat him in a wheelbarrow contest pushing the same load. The guy tries to pin him down with all sorts of qualifications but finally agrees, so Mister Berger tells him “get in”.

Thank God I fast forwarded, I only lost 30 sec. of my life to it. A future gay olympics sport, all he needs is to add some ribbons and sparkles.

Probably safer than the hobby I created called “pitchforking.”
