    Happens all the time. My sister's friend's whole family almost died to a drunk driver. Great demonstration though. Really nice effects and I hope it got people to think twice before they make the worst mistake of their life.

    Wow I thought that was real at first.
    Should encourage people to be safe.

    My only thought was "Why are your fire engines yellow!?".

    Red may be the traditional color of fire engines, but human factors and ergonomics research finds that lime-yellow fire vehicles are less likely to be involved in accidents.



    I read that from the internet, it must be true.

    I'd much rather get hit by a red fire engine then a yellow one.

    They're usually red, but I think the yellow ones are meant for car accidents because they hold equipment like the jaws of life. It's not just there. Back in Maryland I saw a really bad accident around Baltimore on the beltway and there were yellow trucks. That one they didn't bother with a stretcher :\ Just body bags.

    No, what's INTERESTING is that the Red Panda exhibit at the Toronto Zoo is sponsored by FireFox.

    They did this for all of NSW's schools in the Acer Arena a while back

    Except they had a silicone dummy filled with fake blood instead of a real person.

    Even at the back of the row you could hear the bones cracking and the splatters. Dear god.

    Nah. All of our fire and rescue trucks are yellow. They really do stick out a lot more, especially at night.
