this needs a gif of quark saying “but why?”

I don’t think you needed a pro-bowler to just drop a ball out of a window, there was nothing from a pro bowler that was used here.

Yes, we mustn’t sully the traditions and purity of the sport

I mean, the guy wasn’t even smoking and chugging a beer.

Barnes Wallis be like - Hold my beer…

There was an irritatingly disproportionate amount of whooping and rejoicing for something that didn’t seem to be that difficult nor particularly spectacular and there was nothing really learned,

Hopefully Mark Rober or Adam Savage will pick up the gauntlet and show these dilettantes how it’s done.

And no distancing measures in place?

I wanted to see someone, like, braced on the side or front of the car a la mad max

and that’s not a Mustang - its a generic Nascar with a mustang grill painted (stickers) on front.

Would’ve been funnier if he’d left a 7-10 split. And then had to try to pick up the spare.

Heck. I pretty much threw my hands up in the air when gutter guards were introduced.
