Well, to be fair, she was surprisingly unhurt by the collision - not even bruised. However it had to have hurt like hell, and laughing at other people's excrutiating pain is kinda sad.

I am a bit of a risk-taker as y'all know, so I went right ahead and enjoyed it without even stopping to calculate how long I could laugh before my head came off ;)

That show must have some kind of rock-solid waiver to go on as they did. Major mechanism there in slow-mo goodness - and tough on first responders too - imagine how hard it is to support a c-spine when you're giggling!

I'm thinking so as that thing just liquified.

I forget the name of the show it came from something like The amazing face, or race or something?

The girl's pain and suffering aside (but, hey, she did VOLUNTARILY sign up for a stupid reality show)...I believe I have a new addition to my signature line. Yes, I do.

Listen to the first 10 seconds of the video again.

"think long and hard". "do what you gotta do to make it go right into that guy".
You gonna allow this on the 'family-friendly' NWDC?!


And then there's the 'graphic images':

Mike,
=D> Your disection of this video was nothing short of awesome. When I laugh out loud at work and my office partner is all "whats so funny??", you really can't just bring someone in via the middle of the NWDC silly thread.

By the looks on her face, she had to have a broken nose - It was rather "puffy" to say the least.

I didn't find it funny, but another poor soul "coned" into one of these silly reality shows. I feel kinda sorry for the gal all-though.

Does this remind anyone else about the Snohomish Pumpkin hurl that is happening tomorrow (Saturday Sept 18)?
It is pretty awesome to watch pumpkins fly hundreds to thousands of feet...
here is a link to it: http://www.festivalofpumpkins.org/pumpkin-hurl.asp

I saw a truck heading down the road this morning on my way to work with a huge catapult on on a trailer. Pretty cool looking
