Wouldn't the engine start suffering from oil starvation? The house was at about a 90 degree angle...

And they call it an amazing stunt! Nothing amazing about it, other than how stupid some people are. I'd make him repaint the counterweight with one of those super tiny little artist's paint brushes while I yell at him and then send him packing!:cussing:shf:nono:waving

Calm down guys there only rentals.;):rolleyes: I wonder how the conversation would of gone if he would of lock up that engine like that in the first vid. Still not a bad way to clean the track though.

The phrase "Two halves of a total idiot" come to mind when I watched that. Those boy's have to much free time on their hands. They should be concentrating on being productive, so they actually make their employers money.And in turn, collect a paycheque at the end of the week-to keep a roof over their heads-plus feed there families.
They deserve to head down the road, kicking stones.
