Thread: Titanium testicles

Almost 40 years later, I can still feel the shock of the air pressure wave as the train passed a probably no more than 4-5m underneath me. I'll never forget it.

So when my boy showed me this video today, I tried to put this into the perspective of that train memory. This guy is going over half as fast again. In a car.

It is worth pointing out that in the world of nuts engineering, the Germans excel, but they still need a Brit to drive the damn car. Cos he was born with titanium testicles. German ones aren't tough enough...

Germans make fine shoes though. Know any German shoemakers?
