My dog was an expert at this. She was a better mouser than a cat.

It doesn't inflate the tire, it just sets the bead. It just looks like it is inflated because the vehicle is on a jack. There would be 0 air pressure in the tire.

WD-40 works perfectly for this.

Poor girl. Hopefully her collapse was not a result of heat + too many Red Bulls. That would not be good news.

I totally agree with #1. Standing there like a moron.

Anybody else find themselves making weird facial expressions along with the vid? I'll be the first to admit it.

#5 Males in most species wander around in fear of getting beat-down by the females. Just watch any male go near a females young and watch what the result is, a bloody male with a sore ego. Human females do have a slight physiological disadvantage when it comes to performances in strength and cardio-pulmonary capacity.

When it comes to snowboarding it boils down to willingness to take risk anyway.

This girl has some serious ability when it comes to riding the rails. Awesome balance!!

With an intense stare like that the deer was probably using telekinesis to bend the bullet around himself.

#1 Lots of the boats made it across the finish line, first one at 0:56.

It seems to me that, just like NASCAR racing, most people were there to watch the crashes.

I wonder how they keep some of them from drowning?? Gotta be quick on the scene!

Good selection of the soundtrack for the clip.

#4 The Darwin awards DON'T eradicate people, they merely draw attention to the acts of people whose brains have seemingly been eradicated thus leading to their demise. This guy's seeming invincibility and determination are just going to lead him to a taller building and a less favorable outcome. With your mentality you will be a canditate for a Darwin award some day.

I think that things like this would actually be a refute to Darwin's theory of evolution.

#1 I think it is the way cinimatography is moving due to the difference between the Canadian and US dollars. Film up here, pretend it is down there and save huge dollars. Seems do be based on Quebec driver demographics too. Weird.

The freestyle white shorts at 1:23 made watching the clip worthwhile.

#3 Your calculations are not representative of relative cost at all. Sure you can buy the machine (Dangle-head Processor) for $300 grand used, but it is going to burn more than $500 a day in fuel and maintenance, if you are lucky, will be less than 100 grand per year. Of course this thing will do more work in an hour than 8 men could do in a day (falling, processing and stacking in a reasonable fashion). Your estimation of what a Faller (lumber jack) makes in a year is about right. They pretty much only work on steep inaccessible terrain and are felling much bigger and more valuable trees.

Reforestation is NOT exceeding deforestation. Plus it takes the better part of 40 years to get back to the size they are in this video and these are barely mature trees by the look of it. The only thing these trees are good for is paper pulp.

Also, by the looks of this timber stand, it is a European operation and this is probably the second or third cut that has been done in this area. They are very efficient with their timber harvesting practices.

#13 he is so well renown around the NHL that he is playing in Europe now. The ice was obviously really bad, the puck skipped on both Bergeron and Stefan. But for the Oilers to move the puck from one end of that ice to the other in less than 10 seconds and for Hemsky to pull a sweet move and score a goal, that is what really amazes me. :O

It does not get any more clutch than that!
