nothing screams safety like a rapidly spinning axe on a giant wheel next to all sorts of loose rope
Golden comment
Add Head high and crocks with stocks lol
@UCin3rTlFm8xf51dtCmYwROA lol I agree
Bet that dude is missing teeth and in the video ya can see a split log fall on his crocs must have the steel toe model
How many fingers does he have left🤔
2:00 - earmuffs required so that you don't hear yourself scream when your arm gets chopped off
worried about hearing protection but wearing shorts and crocs using the machine of death.
Underrated comment.
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
ROFL 🤣 I cried myself to sleep with this comment ! It’s so true and so sad at the same time 😂😂😂😂
Genuine lol
I’ve tried to come up with a idea to make #2 more dangerous maybe attaching random fireing shotguns or hand grenades.
I am fascinated by the fact that he uses ear defenders with all the other dangers!
He's ok with being ripped apart, but doesn't want to hear himself screaming while it happens. That would be the worst.
Don't forget the crocs on his feet
the machine is so quiet, noise is the last think to worry about
Nothing can distract him from the beautiful work.
I didn’t get past the second machine started laughing and went straight to the comments
Same here!!!!
Ya, the first was pretty good but omg - what the fuck?!
I'm in the same boat. What was he smoking before he built that thing?
same xD..and he have crocks on....darwin award winner for sure
ngl it looks very well build and finished
you'd think he could build something better then what this is.
Skilled yes, brain no
The only significant design flaw of machine number two is the lack of a concentric teflon shield to protect the pivot bearing against the influx of blood and other body fluids which can cause rust and clogging. With this modification the machine would be well protected from user error and provide many minutes of function per operator.
Hahahaha. I spit milk outta my nose and I'm not even drinking milk.
Well played, sir.
But, at least he was wearing shorts, crocs and work socks!🤣
I keep coming back to see this hellhound but you accurately described how the mfpo could be improved. Thank you for coming up with this unit to rate the beast.
Painfully hard laughter ensued.
I disagree, he could have considered wearing orange gloves to see where his hand landed when sliced off at great speed
The fact that you have to push the wood towards the wildly spinning blade then retreat in the hope it doesn't brain you with each flying log is pure insanity.
He's so proud of that monstrosity too. Guy is a complete maniac. Oh BTW I think I shat myself laughing at your term "being brained"
Thats after the rope insanity. Theres multiple phases of insanity.
One day his wife will find him in the yard with a log impaled in his face... This is madness
@@jeroenverbeeck7925 And it will be his own selfish fault!
Alright that first one actually looks pretty good.
You'll lose something if you get your hand in front of the splitter, but it moves pretty slow and seems no more dangerous than a table saw.
The second one looks like it hungers for human flesh and is taking out its anger on the logs. I would NOT want to be anywhere near that.
😂
If the first one had the silhouette for the blade to pass through removed it would be much safer
First guy: "slow and steady wins the race"
Second guy: "YOLO!"
Lol
😂😂😂😂
YOLB
You Only Live Briefly
I know right? Gimme low-speed torque over high speed any day. Especially with loose rope hanging right next to the wheel!
@@jeyy_plays There is nothing sensible at all in that design. The thing requires large body movements towards the blade with perfect timing every time, and its still throwing billets at you.
The second guy is a proud graduate of the Wile E. Coyote School of Design.
Lol
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
Anyone know if he is still alive?
Dam straight. I'd rather swing an axe. Thats a lot of machine for so much work and to have a 40 pound block smack you in the chin.
Dude build that machine for his ex-wife.
It's been three years since this upload and I'm genuinely curious if the guy in the second clip is still alive.
He is, or at least was as of two months ago. He has a youtube channel and that's when the last video was posted. Look him up - MrKent317
For the 2nd machine I recommend adding a second wedge to the wheel to shorten the interval between death-hammer strikes. Imagine how much quicker chopping chop chop!
Shortening life expectancy of the user by 50 percent!

@@nonyadamnbusiness9887 Hahaha. That guy is a fucking fool
Every gun consists of four basic parts. These are the names of all three of them: 1. stock, 2. barrel.
There were 6 that didn't made it until the end of this video. Just don't ask about further details. Belive me.
thank you!
2nd guy put a lot of good engineering and metalworking knowledge into making one of the most dangerous machines ever created
The French would love it
It's not even efficient.

You've never seen my 80 year old dad with my splitting axe....ooshh!! I've a hydraulic heavy duty splitter that runs off a hydraulic power pack that he refuses to use. Instead he prefers to dance with the reaper on every swing!
@@marcusread6271 splitting wood with a splitting axe and a maul feels therapeutic. I'm 60 and hope I'm still walking the planet at 80 like your Dad let alone dancing with the reaper (good one btw👍).
I like how you can clearly see the way technology and progress changed these machines. The third one is clearly from the early 1900s, and just a century later humans were able to create a machine (the second one) that's at least 100 times more dangerous and a lot more energy efficient at splitting logs, cutting limbs off, knocking you off with flying pieces of logs, etc.
I just can´t understand how incredibly dangerous the second one is, i mean, it belongs to a Saw movie, a terror gore movie, a trully suicide machine, they even put the rope near the giant wheel.
And is not even efficient nor faster, the have to lift like 1.5 meter the logs to be splited... i don´t know, it has everything wrong, maybe it was constructed to make a viral video.
The second guy is a damn genius. I hope they start selling these at Home Depot and Lowe’s.
That second one is the very rare widowmaker 5000.
10th owner in 2 years.

@@instytute Heirloom handed down from resentful wife to resentful wife.
This comment was too funny :D
please disregard any red marks
At least he wore hearing protection:-)
The instructions on the second machine say “ Correct use of this machine will result in death and/or serious injury.”
"P.S.: incorrect use, also. P.P.S.: simply considering using it, probably also; we couldn't read the test report b/c too much congealed blood on it."
"Warning: this machine is known to the state of California to cause cancer, brain damage, missing appendages, crushed toes and or testicles, strangulation, and drowsiness"
@@kaasmeester5903 I think Twitter would label that comment as "substantially untrue", especially the "cancer"... I would confidently state to the opposite: No user of this machine has or ever will die from cancer or old age. Mostly because of the violent dismemberments etc you mention.
@@SenselessUsername Looking at that abomination gave ME cancer :)
"Simply considering using this machine will, eventually, lead to some kind of horrific death due to the obvious inability to assess danger."
Am I the only guy that finds splitting wood with an axe the most satisfying work there is? Some of the wood in the video had no knots and would have been a joy to split...
I really like the first one.
The second one is insane. Though I'm frankly impressed at the level of design effort that went into constructing that suicide machine.
There isn't one thing on #2 that is admirable or impressive in any way shape or form. Welding a cleaver to a wheel and making it spin is childsplay. This guy is a certified maniac and that mechanical abomination needs to be melted like the terminator
the second guy the guy with the flywheel axe, somebody should go in there and stop him... :-) I mean seriously :-)
It seems to me too late after the video was published.
The machine will
No way he’s alive to this day
The ass hole needs a covid mask. Jesus how dangerous can you get.
He’s not even using a 2x4 or anything as a push stuck.
Dude’s got a death wish!!!!
I’m all for making something that works with what you have instead of buying something expensive, but there are a million better and safer ways to split wood.
That second machine has layers and layers of amazing stupidity. I'm assuming the guy is dead by now.
@Seeing Dragons I was thinking of making a comment about the 2nd machine and the hopeless fool operating it but the list of things that are nightmarishly wrong would be too long. The first wasn't too bad, consisting of no guards on the belts, operator standing in line with the force, no shield for the operator, hands-on/near work while splitting, children near the work area.
when he.starts.the.rope waiting to lasso him

The rope just dangling precariously next to the uncovered spokes of the giant wheel. The trust in the weld to hold whatever piece of metal he is using to knock the logs. The audacity!

Second machine is an excellent Darwin Award candidate.
A lot of work was done by someone to make something so ridiculously dangerous.
I see him getting a Croc caught in the rope and being pulled in to the wheel of death sideways.
Ahahaha!)))) Really. Is he still alive ??? The initial costs are amazing! - It is not cheap! This is just such a flywheel, somewhere else you need to find !!! This hellish wheel can easily be disposed of old car stuff! I look, and I have frost on my skin !!! ((((
I was just going to type the same thing, hahaha. I did like the capstan winch though.
Absolutely...))
Yep, took the words out of my mouth.
I had to stop reading the comments to catch my breath and dry the tears from my face. I've never laughed so hard in my 30 years.
To the man in the second video, if you're still alive and in one piece please start your own CZcams channel and upload more footage of your Wheel of Misfortune in action.
Same here I have been using machines for 52years I wouldn't go anywhere near any of these
I haven't been crying for so long like now reading comments about that guy and his crocs. :-D
NOOOO! I encourage creativity and inventiveness but this is actually awful and it should be destroyed in lava and our memory erased of ever seeing this mechanical nightmare
@@laurencew5220 what problem with 1 and 3 ?
You said it perfectly..lololol!!!!!
The second one is completely savage! Off the charts dangerous!😂😂
"The machine has to be treated like a wild animal, with confidence and respect".
An actual comment from death splitter designer I read many years ago.
After watching the second machine, I went outside and hugged my heat pump.
Hahahahaha! That guy isn't all there is he? He'll be called lefty before too long!
"That guy isn't all there is he?"
Soon.
@@ChristopherBloom 🖕
Now that is funny. Lol!
He put on ear muffs to protect his hearing. Meanwhile, one log flew off and hit him in the nutz.
the wheel of death is killin me i can't stop laughing at it throw a log on it & run
hahahahaha
What’s the worst that could happen😳
At least he had his safety crocs on.
I can't stop watching it either. That chunk to the bare shin hurt, he just played it off
most random machine that i saw...
I like the way #2 works for smaller pieces. Throw the pieces under the blade and try to dodge the split pieces as they come flying back.
and the design of the year award goes to no2...
his widow will accept it on his behalf
Guy #2: “better put my protective ear muffs on.”
Machine #2: Fires logs at his bare legs and Croc’d feet
Safety fifth!
his capstan winch setup to pull the logs up the ramp was brilliant, every single other thing was the exact opposite.
Well, at least he knows HOW he is going to die, if not when.
@@JACJAC70 hahaha priceless comment
I love how you just made crocs a verb
It was good to see the guy with the giant wheel of death log splitter was wearing his safety crocs.
... with socks.
LOL, giant wheel of death!...I know that's an E.R. visit waiting to happen.
The best of it is that as was demonstrated by the first machine, you don't even need that thing to be going at that speed. Just enough torque and a narrow enough cutting edge is enough.
and hearing protection.....got to give him half a point for that.
Hmmm .....Crox N Sox?
Kinda.....arousing....'Preferably on a chick tho! Add a pigtail strawberry blond wig and we have Liftoff!
The second one is surely the most dangerous machine I have ever seen. I can’t believe that anyone would put their hands anywhere near it.
Gave me the Heebie Jeebies just watching the guy!
I particularly like the way the guy operating the second machine is Mr “Safety first” with the goggles, gloves and ear protection. I too would be mostly concerned about how loud it is and the risk of splinters.
The scary part is that second guy probably thinks he's a genius.
@Derek Jackson why should he say he doesn't know? I bet he's right, this guy is an idiot ready to die from his invention, no wonder he would think highly of himself.
@Derek Jackson You're right, which is why the word probably was used. Yo it's cool if english isn't your primary language, I forgive you for probably not being dumb.
@Derek Jackson The guy in the video is an idiot that's lucky he hasn't been murdered from his own invention yet, saying he probably thinks he's a genius is extremely logical for someone to assume. This guys logic of him probably thinking that way makes a lot more sense than whatever it is you're trying to say. People can say whatever they want, just because he used the word probably doesn't mean he's making shit up. Get over yourself.
@Derek Jackson LOL your judgement on everything is idiotic. Maybe if you have a comeback think up something unique because copying is super lame. You also failed to understand my point which makes sense because you're an idiot. Nice one!
Why do idiots such as yourself make things personal when they begin to lose an argument? Kinda pathetic and shows your lack of character develop. Be a better writer.
The second machine was a present from his wife, right after he got a large life insurance policy.
Oh, Mr. engineer! Huge mistake. What a stupid machine? He hits the wood, the splinters fly wherever they like, and the Lord has neither special glasses nor strong shoes. TRAGEDY. BOTTOM AND SEAWEED!
Jonas Grumbie fucking oath
That flywheel contraption at 3:40 is a real death machine. A serious injury is only a matter of time.
edshulth Yes, he doesn't need ear muffs, rather a helmet and suit of armour!
What is so strange is how proud the owners are of these dangerous machines are. Pride and an armless man don't go hand in hand !
I love how the second one was so crazy dangerous that literally every single comment in the comment section is about it.
who' reading all of the comments during covid 19 for a laugh
@@briannotafan3368 the second guy with the giant Wheel of death. Lol
It's such a remarkably dangerous design, that it's almost like he asked "what's the most violent way I can split wood, while also cutting wood in crocs?"
there are few others that actualy know how to count, coz creator of this video obviously cant.
@@briannotafan3368 got popcorn and reading mode ON
I love the second machine, it is so wildly, ridiculously, unfeasibly dangerous on every level that it has reached the peak of crazy. Operating it would be like being a WW1 pilot, your life-span measured in hours. Watching someone operate it would be like going to the Coliseum - an amputation is inevitable.
The way it pops a ~40lb chunk of tree trunk directly at his face while he safety-squints away from it in his crocs. Then he gets hit in the leg by another giant chunk like an idiot. I cannot believe what I just saw.
At least he was wearing safety slippers!
When you see that you know that mankind has no future.
@@brendanlove3388 :: true that, Brendan ! He looks like he may have a few Corona Extras while WoodButchering, ensuring disaster;;;no shin~guards…but with SafetyCrocs and EarGuards…lol . Imo: just SLOWING DOWN the flywheel to half the rpm’s could stabilize his manually feeding of the ‘splits’ to the AxeWedge.
My thinking was , at least the open frame gives easy access to retrieve severed digits .
1:55
#2 is made by MrKent317 and they made significant improvements recently. Even added a wood chipper beside the main axe blade.
I love how the 2nd guy puts on gloves and hearing protection. Ya know, for safety.
2nd machine warrants a whole new category in the Darwin awards. I assume the monster ring gears landed in his lap free of charge and he designed the thing around using those as his flywheel, but the amount of obviously new and expensive material, and the time and effort expended in putting together this suicidal monstrosity frankly beggars belief. The log lift friction rope mechanism takes what was just stupid and intensely dangerous and elevates it to a whole new level, and the crocs just add that extra soupçon of idiocy to the whole thing.
The rope is propably the safest part of it all- the shaft aint that fast, so, uhm... its not as scary as the rest of the mackine :D
I laughed and continue laughing at these comments!
Too funny!
Well, it was stupid! The mass of the wheel could have stayed on the shaft, but the blades didn't have to be on the perimeter, they could have been on the axle.
platin darwin award
yikes.....I didn't see the crocs since that flywheel monstrosity had my entire attention
At least that second guy may be able to get his arm reattached. Looks like when the machine severs it, it will be relatively clean cut with the chunk of wood knocking him unconscious. Gives the EMT time to administer morphine before waking up. That’s a plus at least.
If your splitting wood in crocs you deserve what you get :/
That's if he can even call an ambulance while unconscious
The machine will eat the EMT as well...
PMSL......
🤣
The big ferris-wheel looking contraption with all the loose ropes and death traps and whatnot is the invention of Mad Matt. Legend has it that a chunk of wood was flipped up in the air and hit Matt in the head. Mad Matt was last seen waking up and wandering straight into the wilderness from where he hasn't returned or been seen since.
Just reading the comments on the #2 wheel of woe made my day!
The best part about #2 is that he puts on ear protection. Safety first!
And wearing crocs.
Die Anti - Schweißfuß - Unfallverhütungs - Klogs.
The Anti - Sweatyfeet - Accident - Avoiding - Crocs.
Rudy Kammermeier its to keep his head from falling apart after its split into two halves when the wood suddenly gives and he slips and falls with his head into the active place of the machine
While wearing crocs haha
@@tobiashock5365 Yes, you should go help him - because noise is really the biggest issue.
watched the first vid was like "that's not so bad" ....2nd video was a spinning wheel of death built by a man in cargo shorts and crocs....
Don't worry they are steel toe crocs
The frist one worked good i think and it was safe to
Well would ya look at these crazy sumbitches
And socks ... he can use those to stop the bleeding..
Derrick Woodward more like absorb the blood. LoL
The flywheel guy knows about safety he has ear and eye protection 😂😂
I'll just post the same comment as everyone else and express how stunned I am that the operator of the second machine actually figures that his maiming-waiting-to-happen is anywhere close to being a good idea.
And he's wearing crocs.
Number 2 needs to set up a live cam. I could watch in suspense all day long.
It's like a train wreck
Waa I watching a guy spilt wood, or an unsuccessful suicide attempt?
@@bcubed72 watching a daredevil
He must be dead by now.
'All day long'? I don't think you'd have to wait that long.
#1 & #3 are actually quite efficient machines. I would use the 1st one with no issues at all and the same goes for the third if it had a guard over those flywheels. The second one on the other hand is a direct line to meet the Grim Reaper.
Depends on it having quick stop for example on the 1st one. If it had has something like foot operated quick stop, then I would think it's fine. any open manipulated constantly rotating machine without emergency quick stop is always on the "unsafe design" category. Since on can never rule out stuff like getting piece of clothing caught in it or in mistake put ones fingers close. As such as slow or safe it looks, it must have quick stop. Not just cut power, but apply braking to the blade or otherwise render the blade safe
Then again it is no more dangerous, than open band saw or table saw. Stuck fingers in the blade and you get hurt. However as said all of those usually have a quick stop button, cutting power and slamming brakes on the blade. At least any decent one would have.
edit: oh and your comment is two years old. Soo, hello, very late commenting. Well what can I say, the algorithm gods brought me here.
@@aritakalo8011I'm still here and agree with everything you said.
The third one isn't even home made. It was commertially available in the 1930's (and not just the engine, but the whole shebang).
Grim Reaper on speed dial, indeed. I don't think there would be any much delay involved ...
I like No. 3 best. The first one had reminded me a lot of risk for crush injuries like in conveyor belts. At least if you stay at the front of No3 you should be ‘safe’
No. 2 was just scary on so many levels.
The flying axe head
The loose rope near said axe head and set up
The fact the wood has to pretty much be thrown into the axe head (which even threw it back at user)
Just a huge NOPE from me
2nd machine - it`a CRAZY, and DANGEROUS!!!!
The guy in the second one was obviously keeping safety in mind, he had gloves, ear protection and Crocs.
who ever invented that 2nd machine needs to be prosecuted for stupidity
I wonder if it dated back to the French revolution.???
Maybe he has already been taken.
I couldn’t agree more.

A quest'ora sarà morto decapitato 😔
Hopefully when 2nd guys wife saw him and that machine she went out and got a million dollars worth of life Insurance because that dude ain't living long
@Matt Barber lol..
@Matt Barber yeah but not without his head where it should be instead of on the pile of near misses
Maybe she's the one taking the video just in case the prosecutor refuses to believe someone could be so stupid to do that to themselves.
When the insurance agent comes around to do the health check for life insurance...'I just saw that machine out back. I'm leaving. Do not contact us again. Ever.'
She bought him some life insurance for his birthday, and the machine for Christmas.
I have heard that the second machine was actually the third version and considered the safest by the survivors.
I'm impressed by machine #2 safety precautions, hearing protection is very important.
"woa WTF is that!?"
"oh, this is my new giant-wheel-log-cutter invention"

I wonder if he still has both of his hands. He truly is dumb as log!
At least he's wearing ear protection..🤔
The second guy I got to love the fact that he's has on ear protection and that's the least of his worries but you have to know that those are some heavy duty off-road Crocs that he's wearing, he's a decent fabricator probably some sort of engineer without a lick of Common Sense I was waiting for the Rope to wind up in something and drag him into the machine or an 80 lb piece of wood bust him in the face cuz I'm sure those 99 cent safety glasses were really going to help him
Absolutely love the first one, but #2 is like something out of Dukes of Hazzard.
I don't get why so many negative remarks about the second guy: he built the safest amputator ever.
I see you used the word "safest" in a slightly unusual way, meaning "guaranteed to get the job done"....
I'd agree if you replaced "safest" with "likeliest"
but throws off woods which can also make other injuries.
"*Fastest"
This is exactly that kind of machine, the French needed during their revolution 1789. Forget that guillotine thing......
The first splitter is perhaps the best one I've ever seen. Fantastic idea! Slower, easy going, controlled, relaxed, powerful. A work of art.
Ox / it's a lot safer than the second one, but it wouldn't work worth a fuck with green wood.
and super enjoying to watch
And you don't need to worry about it cutting part way through anything. Once it starts it's going all the way to the end.
What happens when it meets something it can’t split, like a log with a massive knot? It either stops or the axe head weld breaks.
@@Tailspin80 looks like that weld will break soon either way.
That second one is the most dangerous thing ever
Holy sugar stars. That second one looks unbelievably dangerous. I used to think that some of the contraptions my grandfather had on the farm when I was a kid were dangerous (Okay, they were) but WOW! This thing would be called unsafe in a third-world country. What if the slack in that rope gets caught in the flywheel? The machine regularly throws wood pieces at you. As for the operator: No safety glasses, no face shield, short pants, AND HE'S WEARING CLOGS!!!!
But he has hearing protection.
I love that rope, like the cherry on the cake, like "mmmmhhhh, not dangerous enough, maybe i´ll add a rope here... there, fantastic".
Maybe that machine was made to create a viral video, still the guy behind that monstruosity and the ones that use it are morons in the extreme.
The first log splitter is actually pretty efficient. I like that one. You just have to pay attention but it was pretty cool and it makes short work of those logs and it spins relatively slow.
yeah nothing wrong with the first one. Every power tool has some risk if you dont pay attention but the second one is just plain nuts.
Yeah what was wrong with it, I thought it was brilliant
@@matthewharriman4267 yeah, and i think number 3. is a good machine too, is not that dangerous
@@onillonill5192 First machine can hack off your hand if you're not careful. Third is quite unsafe with all the open wheels and especially since you have to slide on the belt while it's running.
Of course, both have nothing on the second abomination in that regard.
Both are quite safe overall, but for engineering anything, you should always think about the "DAU" (German, "Dümmster Anzunehmender User" = "Dumbest user imaginable") and at least show some effort in keeping the "DAU" from harming themself
@@fabiansandhoff750 first machine, has a nice speed, it's cool, yes it's dangerous if you are not work with care. but i dont see a problem
Number 2's machine is reminiscent of something that might have been built in the early Industrial Revolution.It is violent, insanely dangerous, and totally unpredictable. The only reason to wear hearing protection is to muffle the blood curdling screams that will emanate from the operator when the inevitable happens and the flywheel cleaves off his arm with a little "bink".
Never mind that during the Industrial Revolution the machine would have been run by a ten year old boy
That's freaking genius heels yes !!!!!
"Her housband was a hard working man, just about a mile from here..."
So far I haven't seen anything 'scary' except for that second one. Holy Cow.
And it also wasn't 10 of them
Yeah, after 6 minutes and only having seen 3 it got a bit tedious
Regarding #2 - Some people leave their mark on the world, others leave a stain.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Only thing missing were explosives and beer.
@Marc Johansson What video did you watch? The one I saw was about wood splitting machines.
The first and third machines weren't too bad, except for those exposed belt driven flywheels. But the operator of the second one is trying for a Darwin award!
I like the Fairbanks Morse one. Fairbanks Morse made alot of diesel engines including a locomotive called a train master. Odd looking thing but many railroad companies used them. Like southern pacific and so on
I like how the second machine was nice and at head level.
the french wanna know how much for the horizontal guillotine wheel
I've seen alot of these diy fire splitting machines and the second clip blows the others out of the water
Just wow
_Alot_ is a town in India. _A lot_ is more than one of something.
With all due respect to the danger of #2, I thought the use of a capstan winch to load the logs onto the working table was actually quite ingenious.
The only thing the second machine needs is a rabid junkyard dog with one eye chasing a skunk and couple of feral cats in heat around the Ford Pinto in the garage and a kid lighting off fireworks yelling "hey dad, look over here!!" every thirty seconds. And the guy needs a cigarette.
At least dude #2 was wearing his safety Crocs.
that 2nd machine. i haven't laughed this hard so far this year!
I'd rather freeze to death in winter than chop the firewood with that. LMFAO
For real lol that thing is a death machine
It's the third machine that got me laughing
Yeah that thing screams death and mayhem....amputation and disfigurement also figure into the equation....get rid of it.
@@laurencew5220 that thing had me dying of laughter when I first seen it 🤣🤣 and the dude has Crocs on but wearing safety glasses
It's probably healthier and cheaper to stay warm drinking pure vodka.
Look! - The 2nd Guy has no Safety Shoes!
#2 and #3 are incredibly dangerous lol, thou I did get nostalgic about that hit'n-miss engine.
Second guy dies or is horribly maimed by this machine. Not a question of if, its a question of when.
#1 is brilliant and #2 is a hospital bill in the making.
Exactly, the first one is not dangerous; the only problem is that the guy wants to use the machine at a faster rate than what he can handle and he starts putting his hands in risky positions.
Hospital bill? Try undertaker.
@@TWX1138 true, that is some crazy shit!
That stupid prick is gonna go straight past the hospital to the morgue.
My moms best friends husbands cousin is that 2nd man
For the first and last one, I would have added covers over moving parts, a conveyor, an ejection chute and a pair of sideways adjustable rollers as a stop above the ejection chute to prevent the coveyor fron pushing the logs past the cutter.
Seriously. The second machine definitely at least needs a push stick. I would suggest a 10' 4x6 with a 4x8 sheet of plywood on the end. In other words, leave the machine off and stay inside where you can safely drink.
diverdon That's where you have a brave/dumb assistant, lol.
Stephen King could write a good short story about that second machine.
Edgar Allen Poe already did one on that many decades ago called "The Pit and the Pendulum"
I lost 3 fingers Just from watching the second guy....
IMO the first one is probably the safest. The wheel is just fucking stupid. The piston one is safer than the wheel but does put your hands a bit closer to the action. The last one is just neat and safe with eyepro.
second machine: If a log lands sidewards this death trap will shoot it furiously towards it's operater. like in 3:43. He was very lucky that it didn't break his shin. It baffles my mind because the machine itself looks very well built and insanley expensive.
If that guy with the second machine lives past the next couple of winters using that thing I will be amazed.. it's a death trap. The third one looks like something out of the SAW movie franchise..
