Stupid people

I was gonna throw this pic up in random photos, but I felt like we need a thread just for these kind of pics.

I am embarrassed to admit that this guy is my friend. He asked me if I could weld a new coupler on his trailer. I said yes, but when he pulled up to my house with it, I was blown away at how dangerous/wreckless what he had done was.





Here is what you're looking at.....

1- the hitch is broken, so he just used some rope to tie it down on the ball!

2- despite only having rope holding this thing, he didn't even have safety chains!!!!

3- to complete the trifecta, no trailer lights or brakes were hooked up.

He is lucky that his stupidity did not kill someone.

I got the old coupler grinded off, the new one welded on, a new jack, and of coarse, two new safety chains before it left my house.






So, let's see the stupid people/things you have encountered



My ride- 2001 power wheel, 11" plastic tires, upgraded battery, boat sides, custom bumpers, tow hooks, new paint.

Wow... That'll be tough to beat.

A college buddy of mine didn't understand why Alaska was so cold and Hawaii so tropical when they are right next to each other on a map.



He also thought it was cool that Alaska had such a straight beach.

:cheesy:

Surprisingly, he did earn a degree.

I had a gal at work once ask how I knew what size paper the copier needed, since the physical paper size was not printed on the blank paper :banghead:

This is a job I went out on a few years ago. Family was out of the house, contractor came to dig a trench in the front yard and severed the gas line. Shortly thereafter...kaboom. Thankfully no one was injured.

That guy was lucky nobody was home!! I can't believe when people don't call to locate before digging! Had he called he wouldn't have gotten in trouble..

Very very lucky indeed. The explosion and subsequent fire dislodged the front door from hinges on the house across the street, blew out the windows on a porch two doors down and melted the siding the electric service feeds on the houses next door to the left and right.

Yup don't dig unless you know what's underneath.
