Ghost Riding?

Oh my god, I just saw this on CNN.com. If I see a kid doing that, I am heading straight for his car and I am going to sue his parents to death.



Are the people doing this the biggest losers in your high schools? Do you look at them as potential Columbine massacre duplicators?



With all the little chicks out there now doing three ways and girl girl activity, you guys cant just take care of them in your free time? You have to Ghost Ride? :think:
 
I can understand the "ghost rides" where the kid just dances next to a very slow moving car.



It's dumb, yes, but also somewhat funny.



The kids who jump out of a fast moving car and crash into other vehicles/etc. are just plain morons.
 
IMO it's a new version of modern Darwinism. Used to be people like that got eaten by bears.... (or "got 'emselves et by b'ars" as I usually express it, attempting to convey that *everybody* used to have more common sense than that).
 
A saw that this morning, and my first thought was 'Wow! They're really going to mess up their paint dancing on the hood like that." :)



I agree with Accumulator. Darwinism works. But anymore, there are so many 'safeguards', it's ridiculous. Even little things. I was watching my neighbor's little boy on his swing set recently. The chains on the swings have all these plastic guards, wraps and covers. My question is: How are kids going to learn not to put their fingers in chains so they don't get pinched? We seem to over protect and raise idiots (that need more protection).
 
You know, I'd like to just say that good for them, if they get hurt or killed, then so be it because they chose that, but this also puts others at risk.



It's falls into the same "stupid" category as street racing and such. By itself, go ahead and do it, its stupid, but if you hurt yourself than its your fault... but, they can injure (or more likely) kill others.



Of course, this "ghost riding" crap probably isn't as dangerous, but there are those who do it at decent speed. What if it runs into a neighborhood kid? Or some other bike?



People just don't think anymore.

My school is full of "gangstas" but none of them do this...

lol, reminds me of my sister when I was younger. She put her hands on the over burners while they were on, when asked why, she said "I wanted to see if they were on" :rofl . I saw a video of somebody Ghost Surfing on a truck and then he jumps off as it hits a pole and throws a hydrant into someguys truck parked in teh driveway. That hydrant would be shoved up his azz if that happened to my truck lol.





OH YEH, anyody ever seen Christopher Titus's stand up "Norman Rockwell is Bleeding", the father vs mother part is perfect for this...."just go do it, you'll get it right soon or later" LOL

All it takes is one parent whining loudly enough to her Congressman to get these type of stupid things put in place. We have a mandatory bicycle helmet law now here in Houston for kids. You know how many times I wrecked my bike as a kid? A lot, and I seem to have come through just fine. I can't stand when the few want to legislate their fears on the many. Irritates the crap out of me.



As for ghost riding, it's always the innocent people that will suffer the wrath of the morons doing the stupid act. The crazy drivers always walk away, and it's the mom and baby in the oncoming car that lose their lives...
