Did anyone see the tree stump go through the back window of the4x4 on Saturday night" Funniest Home Video"s"
The stump went like a rocket and smashed into the rear of the vehicle.
How rude of me .......Good morning

Muzbry,
Was that an old one with a few teenagers in the front yard? If so, the funniest thing was the guy with the video camera (is a work mates son) kept the $500!!!

Thanks Bucky, It's the real live 'idot's in action' clips that can really bring home the message and that was what I was hopeing to get hold of. We demonstrate and demonstrate but 1 picture is worth a thousand words.

I think a safety rope should be used with snatch straps to arrest too much travel if the strap or the tow point takes off.
What does everyone else think? Just a thought so far.
