  • The old blokes section in this months mbr has a picture of a lad who's been left with scar across his throat, after some French idiot strung a length of electric fence wire between two trees.

  • Not funny in any way at all. I know an off road [motor] biker who was caught in one of these "man traps"
    If the rope's high enough it can cause decapitation or serious tracheal damage.
  • ..and was why the army landrovers in NI had a steel angle iron bolted to the front to break any such wires.

    That's pretty shocking and not at all funny.

    Mate falls into big pool of mud - funny
    Mate gets decapitated - not funny.

    Notice the subtle difference?
    Mate doesn't get decapitated though, mate goes on to live a perfectly healthy life.

    I wanna see you get clothes lined like that, and see if you still think it's funny. We'll find it funny, cause we know it's coming your way now.

    Obviously too subtle for your three brain cells to comprehend.

    Yeah, one to keep the heart beating, one to operate the lungs, and one to generate drool.

    BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

    Post of the EvArs!

    Seriously though, some of you homos need to lighten the fark up. Yes it was a douchebag move for someone to pull, but the way some of you lot are wetting your pants about it you'd think he'd just cockslapped someones sainted grandma. You DO remember where we are right? The place where we regularly joke about aids, rape, missing children etc.

    I'm willing to bet good money nobody in this thread knows the dude in the video (who was completely unharmed by the way). In fact, I bet only 1 or 2 tops have any intention of ever riding those trails.

    Jesus, the last time I saw a rope like that it was comping from Mrs F-S's tampon, that was a barren icy wilderness.

    ITV news now.
    Funny as, but probably not for him.

    Brilliant.......let's try killing people riding DH @ hamsterly forest. I hope you are next.
    I don't ride on the trails.
    Why would you want to ride down hill on a fast track when you know it's icy anyway?
    well aren't you a massive faggot

    So a that excuses some retard thinking it's funny to put a rope across to purposely cause someone an injury?
    No, I'm not saying that, the tw@ should be hung from it, but it's still funny.

    ..and was why the army landrovers in NI had a steel angle iron bolted to the front to break any such wires.

    Trivia: My dad worked on that design in the REME workshops in Aden in rthe 60's, as the "rebels" used to place snare wires to injure/kill squaddies who often drove with their windscreens in the down position (so they could shoot forward without the windscreen being in the way)

    you seriously scare the crap out of me at with at least 50% of your posts ;)

    any way real shitty thing to do, got mates who ride there regular, only hope the exposure doesnt start a trend the ne is full of frigwits who would find that funny

    Fully-mong finds it funny because it reminds him of that time he was born and the cord wrapped round his neck starving his brain of oxygen which made him the joey he is today

    Sadly someone removed the cord from around his neck before the doctor could plug it into the mains socket...
