OH N-
OH N-
You zoomer fucks wouldn't last a day in our time.
He spends thousands of hours working on the engine, the interior, and the paint job. But he forgot to install brakes.
this boomer literally sacrificed marriages for that car iirc, i bet his kids hate him kek
and he rammed into a family of 5 in front of him and ended up causing severe brain damage to two of them, then his follow up video was focusing on the damage of his car instead of the family he ran in to
Yeah, but we need self-driving cars so the browns can drive
He had brakes but he boiled the brake fuel and his throttle got stuck.
All metal interior has to be the dumbest idea ever. Tell me that was a custom job and not how the car came?
Every boomer I’ve ever met has a story of either wrecking or of a friend who died in a wreck.
based as fuck, he got terminator teeth after taking a big bite out of that dashboard hahaha
Was he charged with causing brain damage to them?
no they were too brain damaged to press charges
damn, my throttle's stuck
I'll just slam on the breaks 100% of the time, that'll even it out
this is such a classic boomer-type solution that it almost loops back around to being based
link?
destroy your marriage obsessing over a car
immediately crash it and hurt another family because you’re a coping boomer
Wasn’t that thing some kind of Frankenstein of random parts also? Like he wasn’t even trying to build an “authentic” reproduction of the car
Ultimately, though, at the end of the day, what matters is
it was very briefly a very cool car
kek, prosecutors hate this one simple trick
It looks like the hot wheel that sits on the bottom of the sale pile for 15 years
Yeah, the biggest stock engine on that model was 410 horsepower. He put in some monster Chevrolet created that put out 1300.
I mean traffic accidents and fatalities were far more common back then
throttle's stuck? Heh, i'll just ride the brakes.
Why are boomers like this?
lead in the water made them strong (and based)
This could've been averted with a manual tranny but americans are too in love with their autotragics to do all the thinking for them
It's a manual car. He could have coasted to a stop at any time. He put it in neutral about 5 seconds before they crashed.
wtf boomers used gas and break pedals and turned a steering wheel? that is fucking incredible
this, looks like my nephews hot wheels. VROOM VROOM REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It was a manual. He was unfortunately too dumb to think he should maybe try to bring the car to a stop once he realized the throttle was stuck. Luckily there was a vehicle in the road ahead that he was able to use as an emergency brake
its clearly a powerglide
It was a manual, but not the traditional gated shifter style. He had some dumbass meme drag racing transmission that couldn't go straight into neutral.
Based on what
Driving large trucks without power steering was a skill. Driving a sedan without power steering is nothing.
Not a car guy so forgive me if this is retarded but couldn't he have just pressed the clutch?
here's the video
youtube.com
Well sedans were made out of 5 tons of steel back then. Instead of the tin cans and paper mache they're made out of now.
Hot Wheels are cool as fuck you joyless faggots.
1300 HP engine
stock 90s civic brakes
no handbrake
It was an auto with a sequential shifter for drag racing
Why didn't he install 4-point seatbelts?
He did. They only wore the lap belts because it was supposed to be “just a quick drive around the block.” Hindsight is a big old bitch, but it doesn’t always cost you a bunch of your teeth
Every time someone asks about this story it gets funnier. He had them, they just didn't use them. They even have a little discussion about choosing not to use them.
is it ok to put the- should I just leave the hanresses? sit against them?
yeah that's what I do
The Boomer did this and probably had no self-reflection at all at how all of his entire life choices contributed to such a moment other than "man i should've checked the brakes"
lap belt's just fine
That's literally a quote from the video
Jesus Christ lmao
*BPTOOOM*
OUCHIE OUCHIE OUCHIE!
Why didnt he just put it in lower gears and let the motor break do the rest all the way to 1st gear then just neutral and slowly stop
He only had more than 15 seconds to react please understand
For the longest time I thought this was Jerry Seinfeld in that show he does fucking up.
Th400 you mook. Down shifting would have done nothing as it was most likely a non-band apply reverse pattern valve body. That's not a B&M powerglide shifter.
seriously what the fuck is that dash? no wonder they had to get stitches and all kinds of shit
See Downshifting would have likely done nothing. Most reverse pattern Th400s don't have engine braking
we call that the Dentist's Retirement Package
I'm watching the video right now and everything they discuss is foreshadowing the accident so bad that it seems almost like it's scripted even though we know it's not
We used be style over safety
we don't need beefy rotors where we're going
Yeah haha I should have put bigger brakes on it
no don't bother wearing your harness
I've put too much time and money into this car to crash it into anything haha
pic unrelated
If you keep knocking on the devil’s door, sooner or later someone will answer you
Every time I remember this video it makes me happy my dad has the sense to invest his money for the express purposes of passing it down to me, my younger brother and our families with some on the side for him and my mom to live good and take a vacation every once in awhile. Feels good knowing he didn’t fall for some boomer meme hobby
Aim for the Honda
And somehow we did it
with shitloads of accidents and fatalities
lmao
It was still edited and posted post crash so the youtuber or his editor might have included the clips of the owner being cocky just to rub it in
great idea keeping his arms as straight as possible when youre about to be in a fucking collision
Locking his arms before contact, like a true F1 champion
I can’t laugh at this shit. My boomer dad does stuff like this all the time. 70 years old and has had two motorcycle wrecks in 2 years. He loves hot rodding bikes and them taking them for test drives without fully reassembling them.
To be fair, it kept his teeth off the dash
He lived a way better life than you ever will, let him be an idiot at least he made it to old age
I do. I’m not giving him a hard time. He just makes me worry. He is in rough shape.
He is a part of so many good memories. I remember him as a man younger than I am now, flying up and down the road on his hot rod “quad racer” and how slow he would drive it when I was riding with him. I just want him to be around forever.
embarassing
He is making up lies, anon. Nobody suffered brain damage.
There was 1 person in the car he hit and they had minor injuries
fuck off nigger
nigger
The irony
i love the 2 frames where you can see the retard locking his arms out on the wheel's arms snap in half
Perfect belt to crush your balls
motor sticks out
Gives me the ick
The reason why the baby boom didn't destroy our planet with over population was because most of them died in car accidents before they could reproduce
what's the channel? I want to watch some of his other videos
thank you very much in advance, everyone
I personally know 3 boomers who lost either a family member or a best friend in car wrecks.
no one hates hot wheels you retarded brownoid. learn to read
should be charged with attempted manslaughter for not getting off the road, ram a wall or pole retard
youtu.be
It's better with sound
ty for the tracker link I guess
In defense of the driver, he did the smartest thing possible in that situation by swerving to reduce speed and hitting the back of another vehicle instead of veering off the street and hitting a tree or lamp post, which would probably have killed them.
We can rebuild it
are we suppose to know what this thread is about?
AIM FOR THE ICEBERG
Jannies, mods, and admins are all niggers.
get rekt lol
Guessing this thread didn't start on Anon Babble. Lol mods are gods
ResetEra has better moderation than this shithole
You are supposed to take your hands off the wheel the moment before a crash. But that is also assuming you are wearing a seatbelt.
This is a pic I took of my personal copy of Ayrton Senna's Principles of Race Driving.
Because people back then weren't fucking about driving mostly, hardly any speeding, hardly any DWI, hardly any driving violations, and cars were safer.
Now you have late teens with a new car trying to show off for chicks and their buddies, by speeding everywhere, rage driving and under the influence a lot too, and the cars today crumple up like cardboard in American cars.
hardly any DWI
KEK it was legal to drink and drive then every movie from that era has your classic dude hauling ass drinking a beer down the road, the fuck you talking about.
cars were safer
Cars crumple like beer cans today to ease the stress of the human occupants cars used to not give at all putting 100% strain on the occupant ripping their guts and brains out internally most died from internal bleeding before making it to the hospital. Cars back then didn't have adequate safety belts and kids car seats were made like IKEA dressers.
