I've had a few in my day but thank goodness there were no cameras rolling.

This one is a classic.

lol I would have an accident laughing at that, I was always a bit worried about loosing my footing and slipping into the flighting, but beer seemed to wipe that worry out

Never ice fishing, BUT I put a dirt auger on it in the summer for putting in fence posts. Drilled one by some trees once and being left handed I use the dam things backwards, caught a root and when it caught it pulled the trigger into my hand and went wide open. Ended up with a dislocated thumb on that one!

I would have stepped back and watched that play out from afar. Looked like a real piece of feces anyway.

Right???? I was wondering how he didn't rip a wrist off or break an arm!!!! Dumbass. Let it ride, even if it has to run out of gas. Good god.

The throttle stuck on my old Magnum III Plus 49cc and I lost my footing on slippery ice with blade about a foot down, lost my grip on handles and motor spun around until the gas tank flew off and motor killed. Maybe that spring setup that held the gas tank on was some kind of covert safety feature....

I had that happen when the barrel was white hot, cooked the last 20 or so rounds on the belt off. Had and saw the same thing on Ma Duece a few times too.

You ever been an AG and seen the bullets going through the bbl?

That's some wild shi'ite. In case anyone is concerned: These instances of which I speak are all training guns at night and wasting ammo to quickly get back to the hootch in Nevada winter. These bbls barely had a trace of rifling. The "purpose" was to train with the T&E mechanism. Bullshit. Your T&E is the AG.

Had a power trowel catch a chunk of re-bar once. That was a total rodeo crap show.

My Dad and I were always setting each other up for a good laugh when I was a kid, Most of mine were plots for a runaway . When I was 10-12 years old I found out two cycle engines run backwards so without my dad knowing I would take the clutch guard off the old 396 Yamaha and wrap a rope backwards and drive it backwards. One day I left it out in the middle of the yard idling and told Dad when you punch the throttle hard from an idle it bogs down. He put one knee on the seat and punched it wide open and a split second later he was on the ground in front of the sled not knowing WTH just happened. Phone cameras would have been fun back then.
