Sorry, but Hypno-Toad’s title was better.
Originally I thought that one was about a cliff accident, so I never opened it.
I’m guessing he’s not a rocket scientist.
This is what I get for not reading the thread first. 
Still, too bad there isn’t any video.
You know, I understand making a rocket out of homemade explosives. Who among us hasn’t been tempted to make just such a device, right? But seriously, strapping this device to your BACK? And then getting on a PLASTIC sled? The failures in judgement are just astounding.
I thought I should post in here, since this guy now has a combination of “rocket” and “surgery” I hope to avoid.
I keep wondering if he would have gotten better mileage if he added diesel to the unleaded. He should have definitely used a rented sled just in case of damage.
Are they going to have to preface roadrunner cartoons with a safety warning from now on?
“Warning - do not try this at home. This is an ANIMATED CARTOON and you should not attempt to copy Wile E. Coyote’s engineering experiments!”
Considering how things always turned out for my namesake, you would think a warning wouldn’t be necessary.
Here is a little more detail. The burns are to his face. I guess that since his face was burned, that if he didn’t have on the helmet he might be dead. Remember that wearing a motorcycle helmet can save lives, even if it’s from an exploding motorcycle muffler strapped to your body while sledding.
snerk Finally got this after re-reading the thread.
If you fancy second degree burns, severe eye damage and potential criminal charges then riding a sledge with a rocket strapped to your back is a pretty damn awesome way to go about it.
Cuz he’s a Sledding Man, burning out his fuse out there on the lawn.
