I stole this from Car Audio Central in the off topic section. This guy's idea has made its rounds from forum to forum through the internet so fast that it occasionally locks up the forum that it originated in (well over 100,000 views since 7 Nov.). Thought you guys would get a kick out of it. Oh, and the guy is serious too....

If you've got a couple minutes, and don't mind losing a few brain cells, read through his other posts on the forum. Retarded as hell, but funny stuff.

This is such a bad idea, there is no control over the reaction, you could have unlimited power.

Kind of like pluging an extension cord back into it's self, your going to blow shizzle up, don't mess with stuff like this.

If you didn't need oxygen for combustion, that would work great!!! Rolling Eyes

Why is the concept of physics so hard for the common nimrod to grasp?

Someone should tell him to:

Check his blinker fluid
Re-pack his muffler bearings
Try replacing his glowplugs
Change is 710 (oil upsided-down) fluid

Just amazing.

EDIT: From North American Muscle Cars, the post is probably a joke...

hehe, I love how bent out of shape everyone gets when they see a bad idea like this. It is never enough to just say "bro, that won't work" it is always followed by telling him what an idiot he is and how he should never have kids.

HOWEVER...this shizzle is funny:
"...you could have unlimited power. Kind of like pluging an extension cord back into it's self, your going to blow shizzle up, don't mess with stuff like this."
HEHEHEHE

That kind of "unlimited power" is just like the theory of a perpetual motion machine; it defys the laws of physics as we know them. Rolling Eyes

I read it. This guy doesn't even need his comment dignified with a response. Let the moron try it, and see what happens. Although I'll admit I'm one whos asked for help quite often, these kind of idiotic ideas are better left to natural consequences, then let them ask questions of why and how, when it failed.

It's one thing to have no idea at all. I mean the world is full of naive, commonsenseless people. But when you say my buddy is a honda tuner.... in which case the guy should totally know better.... it's just plain ingenit.
