I can't believe that picture is real.

I wonder if that guy is ticklish

I wonder if he pulled that rock from out of his head?

Those 4x4 posts are strong enough to hold up that truck, however they look a little weathered

that is a cool picture. I wonder if he was dropped as a child.

Can I order a set of those kick stands from Fastlane?

Kevin

He could end up with one heck of a headach.

Louis.

He should have to have a safety guy to yell 'timber' when it falls. It should be a law, call your congressman.

Ever see how they hold yachts up in dry dock? Very similar. Scary

It really shouldn't surprise me anymore by how stupid people can be, but every once in awhile you see something like this! Darwin's theory at work.

The e-mail that came to me with this in it was titled "Why women live longer than men" !!!

Believe it or not, the only problem that this fellow has is that the bottom of the wooden beam is not protected from kicking out.

As noted by Tirebiter, the same type of support is used to restrain large yachts in dry dock, however, the bottom of the support is usually a steel plate or a larger piece of wood to prevent a kick out. The top cannot budge due to the weight acting squarely on the face of the beam and the compression strength of the beam is more than sufficient to hold the weight of the vehicle (most of the weight is on the two remaining tires). If he used two of them, with proper feet for the bottoms, he would be fine.

Come to think of it, I don't see any women in this picture, either!
