Investigation after 328-foot turbine buckles at wind farm in County Tyrone despite only light winds

A 328-foot tall wind turbine worth more than £2 million pounds has buckled and collapsed on a mountainside in Northern Ireland.

Unconfirmed reports suggested the blades of the turbine had spun out of control - despite only light wind speeds - before the structure came crashing to the ground on Friday.

Locals claimed the sound of the turbine hitting the mountain could be heard up to seven miles away from the Screggagh wind farm, near Fintona in County Tyrone.

For the record, all of these tapes other than the original 3M and one made by Gorilla are crap.

You got that right. Wifey bought some so-called 'duct tape' at a bargain store some time back, and the stuff is just junk. Used it to seal a cardboard box and half an hour later, it had all fallen off.

I remember back in the day, that 3M duct tape was so sticky, you didn't want to get it on your hands. That stuff would fix dang near anything.
