That video is a couple years old. I don’t even need to watch it to know that.

And yeah, it would be much safer to just toss a few sticks of dynamite in the trunk and let them roll around as she drives home.

This is why there's a sticker on the pump that says not to put gas into an unapproved container. Two odd things. First will be whether she can actually get the gas home. Second is if she doesn't get a bunch of water in her tank when she tries to use it. I once got water in my gas, and it wasn't fun.

This raises the question of whether there is intelligent life anywhere in the universe.

Well sure, but they wisely avoid Earth.

They are just waiting for us to blow ourselves up.

good point nothing to do w/ cycling. I'm wondering why the person recording didn't try to help her. I would have told her not to do that & helped her get a gas can. most gas stations sell them

That reminded me of back in the early 1970's. When I was washing my dad's MG Spirit. I must have become bored. Because, I took the water hose, and put it up the tailpipe with the water running. I didn't flood the engine. But it doesn't come close to the potential danger she is causing.
