I was just watching Country Fried Home Videos. They state at the begining of the show that they won’t air videos of people doing stupid, dangerous or illegal things. They then turn around and show a video of a guy that took his tires off the rims and was cruising down the train tracks in his car.
I guess the producers don’t think that’s stupid, dangerous OR illegal.[%-)]
You did not say whether this stunt was performed on an active railroad line; I, myself, hope that it was! We should be quick to commend the producers of Country Fried Home Videos. This type stunt is not stupid, dangerous, or illegal but is obviously designed to qualify this individual for an annual Charles Darwin Award; he is clearly attempting to improve the gene pool by removing himself from it.
Remember, as Bob Barker says, “Help stamp out the idiot population; have your mate spayed or neutered!”
Looking at the driver, I doubt the proper permits were issued. Your right! The gene pool needs more chlorine.[;)]
Another productive, non-rant pro-modelrailroader thread by Lothar! I love these ones!

I thought this was going to be about mounting small video cameras in dummy locomotives. Honest. But, the heads of people who pull stupid stunts like that would probably also be a good place to mount a camera, since there’s obviously a lot of vacant space inside.

‘Country Fried Home Videos’
I’m unfamiliar with said matter. What channel is this on?
Country Music Television (CMT) The shows hosted by comedian Bill Engval (spelling?) from the Blue Collar Comedy Shows. The guy flew down the rails, locked em up and slid it sideways at a crossing to get it off the tracks. I heard a train blowing it’s horn but that might have been added for T.V.
Sunday before last davidmbedard had assumed the musnud of forum leper; I can’t help it, I still like the guy!
We can probably put a TV studio in these individuals’ head space.
