    So that’s why there was no water pressure yesterday when my house was burning down.

    Water pressure is no problem, there wasnt any firemen, all of them was playing “lift-a-car-using-water”.

    I just went to a fireman’s convention and I’d wish they would have done that there.

  8. chris noto Says:

    That’s awsome, I want to ride in the car though while they do it.

  9. Babble Says:

    Is anyone else wondering why this car tilts to the left, but doesn’t move to the left on it’s way up? Is this thing tethered in some way? There’s either gotta be something hindering lateral movement, or this vid is a fake.

  10. Tom Says:

    Yes, there’s straps holding it down. They’re visible.
