That wisp is moving at over 150 miles per hour. One gallon of water moving that fast would likely break a window. | ||

8.3 lbs per gallon...water ain't light. | ||

It would break a window. The kinetic energy of 1 gallon of H2O traveling 150 miles per hour is approximately 6,017.2659 ft-lbs. | ||

A college buddy/babe ( a friend's GF too ) skydiving partner was a smoke jumper as a big part of working her way through school. The fire retardant added to the water makes it thin mud. She's been hit by a drop more than once, if laying down, covered with an aluminized fire blanket, she says it's like getting run over by a monster truck. A solid hit, but spread out enough to Just knock the wind out of you. If you're standing in the way, it can really slam you into trees, ground, rocks, etc. Seldom fatal but serious injuries. The lady had big brass ovaries. In great, athletic shape, too. I have stories not suitable or genteel to tell  | ||

Pretty cool article... nicely describes the lot of us Buellers. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2019/11/ 01/775198994/the-science-of-scary-why-its-so-fun-t o-be-freaked-out | ||

I'm told the risk/reward part of the brain doesn't nature in males until about 25. I assume there is a bell curve on that factor. I know healing up from mistakes takes longer now, but I still ride and do other things, the things I can still do. I freaked a guy out once by simply saying I was scared when I, for example, cliff launch a hang glider. I'm not sure if it was admitting the fear, or doing something anyway that triggered him. There's a difference between a tall ladder, and flying. Maybe Not for everyone? Not a big horror movie fan. And my friends all have been told never to put me in a prank show where they do the "escaped violent mental patient, with a chainsaw" type of prank. I'm more likely to hurt a stuntman with a table than scream and run. Oh, I'd be screaming hilariously. | ||

Indeed. Wipe off the seat, and you’d never know it happened. | ||
| Pwnzor |
The seat might need more than a wipe after that one... lol maybe some clorox | ||

I might be a little biased... from left to right - '97 F150 - '00 F250 - '01 F650 - '99 Ranger (sort of hidden behind the F650)  | ||

My favorite RollBack truck is an F550. | ||
