Hey, I can change the blade on my guillotine hydraulic paper cutter with the motor running as well............... I'll never do it, I like my limbs attached thank you.

Nothing really special. I would almost bet there are several veterans who have done that before...

Sure, but can you do THIS:

Scutter I am not even dumb enough to try that one...

All though if you would like to front the bill I think we could find several people here who would be willing to try it,,,

I recently saw a thread (can't remember if it was here or someplace else) where a guy was cleaning the chain on his motorcycle - while it was running!!! Fingertips are now missing.

There is NO-ONE driving that car! Must have the gas pedal held down, and the steering wheel locked to one side?

I'm sorry, I'd never try any of this. I'm all about my safety and not losing body parts working on a car. '

Although, at my last autocross I did something I don't normally do and broke my own rule. I got under my car multiple times to adjust the rear shock dampening while it was just on a jack. Almost had one of the safety stewards chew me on that one after I popped out. Then I just said was just turning a knob real quick.

i get enough busted knuckles working on my cars the traditional way.

anyone notice that the belt was somewhat loose? probably couldnt do it otherwise.

I wanted this 5 times. its.. interesting I wish I had a vw to pratice on.

A friend of the family was working on his running car and got a little close to the fan belt. Let's just say he can't be accused of pointing at someone.
