An object in motion will tend to stay in motion

I want one of these ceiling fans.

This is a proper ceiling fan.

8 blades & 4.3m diameter.
Nice and quiet, and shifts a lot of air.

My first (and second thoughts) were if the truck could even turn with all that weight hanging off behind it's rear wheels.
There might be a kilo or two on the front wheels.

I can see a big time wheelie happening there. :-D

Cheers.

Now this is what should've been used for that job. ;-)

It’s the right idea but a lowboy is better.

That type is ok down in the cities here where the roads are pretty good Admiral, but they seem to prefer the sliding tilt tray types out here in the country where the roads are nowhere near as good and would likely prove to be the death to 1 of that type very quickly, which is likely why I've never seem 1 of them on the highway out front of my place here in the highlands. ;-)

I do get to see some massive things being moved through the village though from wind turbine sections to huge deisel engines that look like they belong in very big ships onto huge sections of large scale mining equipment, but the funniest I find are the lowered city cars that leave trails of sparks behind them.

If you need to lift a bus call the Russians.

But could/would you trust it out in the middle of the outback? :-O

I see where ground clearance is a issue. I lived on a unpaved road for many years and have had a few clearance problems a shovel has been used to correct.

Even the tared ones can have some real clearance issues here like where the pothole repairs get pushed up like mini volcanoes or ridges popping out of the road surface certainly surprise some when their inattention has their exhaust pipe dragging along the road.

If only we could have a proper shoulder to shoulder concrete based hot mix surfaced highway here instead of a compacted earth base strip with a blue metal layer over that that is then tar sprayed together and hope for the best. :-(

That's why the guy is hanging on the front step......

Man in Austria fined £450 for 'loudly' farting in front of police officers

The man was told he had "violated public decency by loudly escaping an intestinal wind in front of police officers" by a criminal order in the Austrian capital of Vienna, local media reports.

... then "rose slightly from the park bench, looked at the officers and apparently intentionally released a massive bowel wind in the immediate vicinity of the officers."
