Any Mythbusters viewers on here? Did you see the Duct Tape Special they did, some of the things it can do are amazing. They lifted a car clean off the ground with it, and made a working cannon with nothing but Duck tape - [url=http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/mythbusters-duct-tape]car lift[/url].

:lol:

I remember watching the duck tape Mythbusters episode. I like catching those inventive loons on the old gogle box.

This is awful. Can someone get it removed please. To do this to the most precious gift on earth is disgraceful.

Don't you think that is perhaps an over-exaggeration ?

I know duct tape can be really quite useful, but "the most precious gift on earth" ? :?

Ask Grahame about the page I took out of the ES magazine awhile ago - according to that Grahame will be Master of the Universe when we're fighting for survival after the downfall of life as we know it :lol:

It was an article about post-holocaust survival, prompted by the film 2012.

It suggested chemical suits, water filters, etc. and suggested "for everything else" Duct Tape will be the thing, with it taking over from the pound, euro or dollar as the world's dominant currency. According to Amy, my hoard will make me one of the richest prople in London, if not the country. So, now all I need for total world domination are a hollowed out volcano, some lackeys in orange boiler suits, a white cat and a large leather chair.

If I may be permitted an evil laugh at this point...


Mwahahahaha.

The Meaning of Life is Duck Tape, although not the silver stuff :roll: . It's dark on one side, light on the other, and holds the World together.

re the picture, there is no tape actually on the kid and he seems happy enough. It doesn't actually look any different to what children are carried around on their parent's backs/chests with - papoose?

[size=30]Concerning being the most precious thing in the World for all we know the kid might be a right little bastard and have got off lightly.[/size]

I heard once about Aussies (where else) making baby suits of velcrove (not sure of the spelling) and having a patch on the wall, then sticking the kids to the wall while they did their house work, not to unsimular to mr :mrgreen: s
