Can't make this (stuff) up

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

I wonder if the model puts this on her resume or would rather not.

The rim is pretty wide, for people that can handle it psychologically - not me. However, the climb up there must have been exhausting, and maybe more dangerous if they didn't use harnesses.

OH HELL NO. I can hardly even watch that without my heart exploding. 15 seconds of knowing your dead in less than 15 seconds.

Good idea, but probably most potential users would have leg issues that make it impractical. They could have a hand version like some recumbent bikes are built, but fershure the idea of a geared chain drive is an improvement.

Gotcha. :P

That might be a good idea, if it can swing out of the way during normal hand activities.

And it would add weight to the chair, too, and possibly make it more cumbersome to load/carry around. One would think at a time you can get battery powered skate boards, bicycles, and unicycles (yes, unicycles) that battery powered wheel chairs would be more affordable.

Former Australian Surf Pro Chris Davidson Killed After One-Punch Pub Fight

Legendary former pro-surfer Chris Davidson is believed to be the victim of a lethal attack in a country bar in the Australian state of New South Wales. Davidson was reportedly punched in the face outside of South West Rocks Country Club in South West Rocks on Saturday around 11 p.m., causing Davidson to fall and hit his head on the pavement. He was treated by paramedics before being rushed to Kempsey Hospital where he died of his injuries, according to police. He was 45 years old. It is unknown what sparked the argument but a crime scene has been established at the location.

The attacker is alleged to be Grant Coleman, the brother of NSW Waratahs head rugby union coach, Darren Coleman, the Daily Telegraph reported. He was arrested at a home in South West Rocks around 12:40 a.m.—about 30 minutes after the attack—and charged with assault causing death. According to the Daily Mail, he has also been slapped with “a new charge of choking the victim.” ...
It's a tragedy, but never bring a surfer to a rugby fight. :o :wave: 8-)

It would be a nice prop in some space alien movie. Be better to have several of them. $60 is probably a bargain.
