I watched this the other day. Such idiots

Looks more like it kicked the friction material off the pad, or the friction material wore off and the metal shot out. Either way it better have been their own car, 'cause it looked like there was quite a bit of damage to the fender.

[bellis_GTR]

lmao what retards!! Who would stand that close to something like that haha

[Snake556]

... Just wow.. That is all

[Shadao]

looked like a beater mobile insomeones private garage...

[Snake556]

Why can't I have my own private car lift..? But morons can

[E-xo]

Wow.. how dumb must someone be to find that entertaining? on another side, wouldn't the bit of smoke coming from it contain residue from the brake pads and rotor? if so, would it be safe to safe there's asbestos ( spell check?) in those fumes? if so, eventually they'll get illnesses and cancer from it, although that is gonna take a while..

[Snake556]

They'd have to be breathing it for quite some time to have any ill effects from asbestos. Luckily, it's not an instant carcinogen.

[CelicaKidd_205]

They don't put asbestos in brake pads anymore, it was banned quite a long time ago. You really only have to worry about it when working on un-restored old cars.

I recently went through a college course to be an auto mechanic, and my teacher who has been in the trade for over 40 years, has many contacts, has asked many of them on the topic, some say its not there anymore, some say it still is, either way, i don't trust it. lol, safety first.

most likely you're some kind of student/engineer or dont' have a great job... either way, being broke means that kinda stuff. I didn't build my garage big enough for a hoist, so we'er house shopping now lol need a shop for a hoist

[NismoS-tune]

as for the fumes, I'm sure it's as bad as what knuckle dragging welders get lol.

Asbestos banned? kinda, though it's still used quite a bit, just not in the open to eyes if you konw what I mean.

Wow.. how dumb must someone be to find that entertaining?

I found it entertaining

[E-xo]

My apologies then, I just don't find it a smart thing to do.
