If oil is leaking into the river, and we assume they get all that oil up, there will still be damage, and there is still the tree loss. On top of the waste of destroying working stuff.
How very USAian.
I think the Johnstown flood being cause by a handful of rich assholes lowering the height of the dam so they could more easily drive to their hunting lodge has got to be up there.
I like that quote from that one guy complaining about a river taking away more land each year... and the primary issue with that is less parking.
WTF?
BREAKING: US people who want to see things crash and burn aren't looking around!
I get the cringe value of some destruction derby stuff when there's at least some show, but there's none of any dumb fun in just dumping vehicles down.
I remember hearing about this. Its like you want people to know about this. I can't imagine that modern young folks in the area find this great.
You know, at least in my area, when they wheel a vehicle out onto the ice in winter to gamble about when it’ll fall through in spring, they strip out all the fuel lines and interiors and stuff and just leave the shit frame, and the cars themselves don’t work prior to being selected for this. I’m pretty sure they also retrieve them afterwards.
Could they do something better with the thing? Almost certainly. But at least it’s not… as bad as launching fully functional cars into a river just for funsies..
I would be on board with this if we would just finish the job and throw the rest of the cars off a cliff too.
Humans fucking suck.
Nobody wanted that. Not even Alaskans
Maybe God was on to something the first time he drowned all of humanity. If only he’d just gotten like 3 or 4 more people.
