Seeing a kid on a leash makes me see red. The child is a human being - not an animal. I never put a leash on any of my kids.
The message the mother transmits to her child is that he or she is no better than an animal.
its fun until you end up in a 3rd world hospital
As a hydraulics guy all I can say is WOW! That was fucking epic!!!
Hope the guy had his seatbelt on I bet that was a hell of a ride!
I hope the guy that ran by had his mouth closed and a butt plug in or he'll be shitting hydraulic oil for a month!
That TBF contact incident, at Oshkosh, resulted in a passenger fatality....Most USN WWII single engine aircraft have crap pilot visibility on the ground.

Having a bad day down here, miss read the report, saw that both pilots and the passenger in the Avenger survived...That TBF contact incident, at Oshkosh, resulted in a passenger fatality....Most USN WWII single engine aircraft have crap pilot visibility on the ground.

6mm's, but they swore they were 6.5's.
Not so much a load issue as the driver not pulling forward as he dumped the load. Once the gravel plies up that cylinder was effectively pushing against a solid surface. That's why you see dump trucks creeping forward when they off load.
I was dumping a garbage truck when the right side dump cylinder came apart. The threads on the gland pushed out. The right side came down so fast it bent the frame. Beat me up too!
I understand the process, I've driven a few. One of the local asphalt company's just started switching over to the super dump trucks, 7 axles, that have smaller boxes then those. Those are loaded to the top of the box to boot.
Hydraulics are dangerous for sure. Glad you survived! I've seen the results of an ejector cylinder fail (the style that cross.) on one side, pusher bound (while the other cheerfully applied 75 tons of pushing force), and the box split open like a can of biscuits had popped!
Thank you! The shitty part is the company did not scrape the truck. Volvo cab over and Heile bed. I was back in it in a week.
I despise Heil cylinders! They are the epitome of "Pain the fucking ass to work on!" .
I hate garbage trucks. That was the hardest job I've ever had!
You probably never had to wrangle a bunch of young children in a crowd.
Sometimes you need leashes (with the chest harness of course) for young children.
Yes, I have had to wrangle young children in the crowd. If they were still in the toddler stage, I would put them in a stroller. Depending on the location, I would sometimes put them in a wagon and pull them.
When they were past the toddler stage and would walk some distances by themselves, they understood that they were not to wonder off without me. I "trained" them to stay close to me.
In areas that were not crowded, I let the toddler walk. It was on those occasions that I let my kids know that they stay close to me. Call it training or conditioning, or whatever you want.
Regardless, I never used a leash and never felt the need to use one. My kids are not my pets.
