I think he just unstraps it and then steps on the gas really quick.

In the top picture, am I seeing correctly that an aluminum ladder and a 4x4 board are structural parts holding up the back of the boat?

51dueller, that is painful to watch!

There are hundreds of pictures and many websites devoted to this kind of craziness. This one I thought was pretty funny...

The sad thing is - I shot this pic while driving in Central PHX! I literally had to chase this guy down to believe what I was seeing.... Yep, it is exactly what it looks like.....

Me too. She's definitely "Built Ford Tough" LOL

It's like a train wreck. You can't turn away, and want to see more.

The hub cap being blown off is classic.

The guy hauling the sled would have a bad day if I pulled him over. I'd have to ask him how he got it up there. Then he'd get a ticket before he kills someone.

The lumberjack placed that log perfectly. I'll give him that. But how could he not know that was way too much for one cut. Guess he was tired of having an operable tailgate. I couldn't stop watching it either
