Re: Well here it is tug of war Dodge Vs Chevy and the winner is

Actually there are four losers. The drivers of both trucks, the guy in the john, and the guy that thought up this stunt. First, the other truck is not spinning its back wheels while the Dodge is. Since the attachment point for the strap is higher on the Dodge than the other truck the Chevy should have tires lit up since its being "unloaded". There are at least six large bolts holding the bumper brackets to the frame and since only the back two wheels are spinning on the Dodge, it is not likely all six were broken by a two wheel drive vehicle. Probably yet another "set up" for America's Funniest Videos.

Re: Well here it is tug of war Dodge Vs Chevy and the winner is

I have to agree that it is a setup. <br /><br />The first thing I questioned is the non-spinning tires on the left hand truck. They should be. The second is that the torn off bumper appears to be intact. IE it is not bent in a V shape or distorted suggesting that all mounting bolts broke at the same instant. Highly unlikely. What is more likely is that the center most stress points would rip through, causing the bumper to v out, then the outer mounting points rip through on one side, causing it to get an L shape on one half if the bumper. It should be mangled.<br /><br />But then again, I am no expert in ripping bumpers off of vehicles. Last time I did that I was 17 and the bumper did not just "pop" off. It was ugly. Ask my Dad.

I am pretty sure that the truck on the right is a Ford, take a close look at the tail lights. (Of course I am going to say that being a diehard Chevy fan :D ) but I truely think it is a ford

Yeah, no doubt it was a set up. The camera gets paused, then they hook up a different bunper.<br /><br />From experince from "Hey Yall, watch dis!" When you do pull a bumper off from a tug of war, the losers bumper then sling shots back at the winner usually smacking him in the back of da head! or truck.<br /><br />BTW a opreational porta pot has that green stuff in it, and that guy did not have the green stuff on him. I have witnessed those things being pushed over and it isn't a pretty sight. Besides there isn't any that is running out on the ground from it. Plain and simple, There Busted!
