How fast do these cars go?

Another

Last.

one of the hazzards of playing chicken

What was the last thing to go thru that chicken's mind???










It's asshole


Chicken a la Porsche

that Euro plate and the spotless garage suggest that photo was not taken in the US.

it's a little known fact that the European swallow can travel up to 200 mph, as they are not migratory...

with a fast enough bird, that car couldda been parked.

hitting a 5-lb bird at even 100 mph would be unpleasant.

Is that an African or European swallow?

Was it unladen?

Obviously the bird was trying to answer the phone.

German car
word is that the car was going about 140mph at impact...

i believe it was a European swallow, although a cocoanut would certainly have contributed to the damage...

Looks kinda like a Pheasant to me after a close range 12 gauge shotgun blast.

How was it carrying a coconut? Did the swallow grip it by the husk? And how can a tiny swallow carry a coconut?






It looks to me like a windshield impact test done in a lab.

are you suggesting that a 10 oz swallow could carry a 2 lb. coconut?

it's not a question of where he grips it, it's a simple matter of weight ratios

I saw a sage grouse (about 6lb typical weight) do almost the same damage to a GMC Suburban windshield. Impact was at about 70mph. Penetration was partial.

It's not the swallow that was carrying a coconut. It's the rube behind the knight who was chasing the swallow to figure out the bird's speed to gain permission to cross a bridge . . .

Yikes! I know I have had my Boxster up to 155 MPH. That impact must have been over 100 mph.

at least that duck had good aim, man that is a dead on center hit.

Neh! Neh! Neh!!

Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?
