Road-Net That Can Stop A Speeding Truck

Don't tell Spiderman -- he's already pissed he lost the contract to produce those web-bags oranges come in.
The Vehicle Arrestor *cuffing self to bed* from Barrier1 Systems was designed as a road block to stop speeding vehicles and launch drivers out the windshield as far as possible. WHEEEEEEEEEE!! They also have three other products, the Crash Beam, Bollards (NOT bollocks -- those won't stop anything, just hurt and make you pass out) and Quick Connect, which are variations of the same theme: pure, unadulterated automotive carnage. Hit the jump for a worthwhile video of the different systems tearing trucks apart. Then, hit me in the stomach as hard as you can. Go on, I can take it. *POFF!* Holy shit I think I think you killed me. "Dammit GW, that was two 'I thinks'". My brain isn't getting any oxygen!
Hit the jump for the worthwhile video, then we'll discuss working some of these into my stunt spectacular.

John Pontilillo, a Johns Hopkins undergrad, killed a would-be robber with a samurai sword after finding the thieving bastard attempting to pilfer items from his garage. Nice, John, I would have done the same thing. Except blindfolded because I'm like 30x tougher than you are.... / Continue →

Peter Rogers is a hardcore dude. First he insults some guy's girlfriend's mother, and then, in the resulting bar fight, gets his hand cut off with a samurai sword but continues to punch his attacker in the face with his bloody stump. Wow, Mr Rogers (I really loved your littl... / Continue →
