The pool thing? Yeah, that one really got me too.

Because we are doer's? I don't think that should be held against us. Way to get shit done guys I'm proud.
artistunknown
Most of these just seemed like a way to get things done by using what's available to you. I wish I could come up with solutions like that

And see you (soon) in the next life. Godspeed!

That last one looks incredibly stable too. I'd do that any day.
PrincessMerida
It is stable, but you just have to be very aware of yourself. My dad made me do that, but over the stairs, not across, to wire something.

EMTs call this ' job security'

You know what? Fuck H&S!

That was the top comment last time one of these was posted. Good memory.

I do consider this to be job security... Can always count on someone with a "brilliant" idea to give me an interesting call...

we were watching this guy once who gripped a powered spinning blade hedge cutter by the frame surrounding the blade (an inch between his

Especially the throwing the mattress over the railing one.
FartedWhileMakingUpName
I think it may be a chair. I don't think it's a mattress, it's hard to tell, but whatever it is it must be heavy.
NotSoSmartAlek
Sofa or couch. Big, soft-ish, but heavy like yo momma.
FartedWhileMakingUpName
Word.
C8H10N4O2addict
Yeah, my asshole just took a bite out of my couch when I saw the pool-guys with the cords...
unscot
That's probably the least dangerous of them all. A wall outlet doesn't have the current to cause any major damage at that range.
iliketokeepitsimplestupid
It is SAFE! The jandal is floating... not like they'd make a multi board that wasn't waterproof anyway right?

This has been doing the rounds for over a decade. It was a hoax for a Dutch safety web site. And I can't find the link......

It's ok, they installed iOS 7 on it, it's waterproof.

Fart-lighting is not too dangerous - its spectacular and you can actually set stuff on fire but not deadly. The fridge could kill you.

If the pool's rubber is thick enough and there isn't anything that is draped over the wall to ground, it *should* be fine b/c its contained

C8H10N4O2addict
I don't. Sounds like a bad idea.
ZapTap
Eh. There's really no way it would kill them. Sting a bit, at most. Even that, I sort of doubt, since the water is more conductive than them
turnthelightsout
Absolute rubbish. 230v without an RCD/rcbo in the circuit and they will be dead. Water+electricity+direct short to earth=death.
ZapTap
See my other comment below. You're not wrong. I was also assuming it was American and looking closer, it probably isn't.
johnvictor
The circuitry in the power strip would fry out, trip a breakr or similar. It would not be pleasant at all though.
ZapTap
Well, I did a bit of research, and it seems it has the potential to do some damage.. but it likely wouldn't go through their heart as 1/2
PedanticGonkDroid
HA! Potential.
ZapTap
they're standing in the picture, just leave through their feet.
Cronko
I might be wrong, but wouldn't the contracting muscles in their legs cause them to fall into the pool anyways?
ZapTap
Yeah, that's pretty reasonable. Like someone else said though, the breaker would probably pop too soon to do too much damage.

Don't forget to rev the engine to the moon and back, then dump the clutch. The smell of burning clutch and tires is great.

As a woman, it only impresses me when men do smart shit. I can't speak for other women, but I'd love to know what they think!

I don't like to get attached to reckless men. It's anxiety-inducing and miserable.

Starting fires indoors, destroying household items, doing his own wiring/soldering, eating garbage. Colour me unimpressed by SO:s bravado.

Still love him, but sometimes you have to do the reality check for others.

Eating garbage, I was not expecting that one, I must say.

The child had left some on the table, he went by and absentmindedly picked it up and ate it in front of my horrified eyes. Chewed cat candy.
