when I was 13 years old --I fastened my Bluestreak .65 to the basket on my bike - no throttle - a control line glow engine
actually started it and got on and tried to go for a ride .
I got plenty of castor oil spray on me
I stunk up my clothes - the thing would not pull me - and all in all a dismal failure -but I was 13-and curious.
Another "how dumb can you get" story -
A friend told me his neighbor asked to borrow a circular saw blade - tho he did not have a circular saw .
"Why?" my friend asked
Answer
the neighbor wanted to trim shrubs and was going to attach it to his hand drill .
He did not get the blade.
