I was just wondering, do you think that 10 guys could turn over a Dodge minivan by rocking it from side to side? I was just wondering.
I only asked because you were dressed up in first responders gear.
If you had been in jeans and t-shirts I would have thought you were just having fun.
Do we get to use any rope, levers, or any field expedient materials, or by hand only?
Welcome to Free Republic. I see kitties and lightening in your future.
If the rolling hunger strike foks were inside, would it be a rolling, rolling hunger strike? Or just an improvement?
Wakey, wakey!
Helllooooooo?
Pre-ZOT.
OK I went out and tried to roll my neighbor's over 10 times but nothing happens aside from my neighbor asking "what the hell are you doing?"
We usually use seven or eight to flip a car, but that's just so we're sure we've got enough that we won't have any balance problems or accidents. You could do it with less.
ROFLOL! Now that's a prank.
I did see a guy drive into the side of an old Volkswagon mini-van in a parking lot one day. He didn't hit it hard, but that thing went over like he'd hit it with a wrecking ball.
I've got to admit, it's been a long time since I tried to do any car lifting, for pranks or otherwise, but it kinda sounds like fun.
You ask about flip van, well I saw this lady on TV that flipped a house by her self.
I got flipped off by 10 in a van once.
Then again, a moose once bit my sister...
Do you like cheese?
I like cheese.
Blue mostly, but cheddar too.
Shoulda seen that mooose...
In before the zot!
A touching elephant story
While on holiday in Kenya and walking through the bush a man comes across an elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seems distressed so the man approaches very carefully. He gets down on one knee and inspects the bottom of the elephant's foot only to find a large thorn deeply embedded. As carefully and as gently as he can he removes the thorn and the elephant gingerly puts its foot down. The elephant turns to face the man and with a rather stern look on its face, stares at him. For a good ten minutes the man stands frozen - thinking of nothing else but being trampled.
Eventually the elephant turns and walks away.
For years after, the man often remembers and ponders the events of that day. Years later the man is walking through the zoo with his son. As they approach the elephant enclosure, one of the elephants turns and walks over to where they are standing at the rail. It stares at him and the man can't help wondering if this is the same elephant. The man climbs tentatively over the railing and makes his way into the enclosure. He walks right up to the elephant and stares back in wonder. Suddenly the elephant wraps its trunk around one of the man's legs and swings him wildly back and forth along the railing, instantly killing him.
Probably not the same elephant.
I saw a catapult that could throw a car about 100 ft. They used it throw lots of cool stuff, there must be video somewhere.
"Why are they tipping that car?"
Good service?
Yes.
