You know now that all of the rappers are going to have guy-in-a-wheelchair hood ornaments now.

It is fortunate he had his seatbelt on. He's up in a part of the country where the cops charge people for anything they can find on the books, like hacking into a computer network sitting outside a coffeehouse using their wifi.

Wow....one little rock in the road and that guy would have been toast.

Good thing it didnt happen in OK or MO.. One pot hole and he would of been FUBAR!

i don't see how that's possible

the wheels on the chair are so much smaller they couldn't turn fast enough to keep up.

They would of been skidding and melting at 50 mph


surely there is a mathematician in the house that can figure out how fast a 4 inch wheel would have to turn to keep up with a 4 foot wheel at 50 mph.

I am no mathematician, but my guess is "very fast"

Poor kid, I'd just passed out, hyperventilated and with the smell of stinky drawers.

This is why you shouldn't be allowed to have conspiracy theories.

Who needs a mathematician for that kind of math? The smaller wheel would turn 12 times for every single revolution of the bigger wheel.

how so?

I'm assuming that we're talking about wheels with 4" and 4' circumference. A 4" wheel is going to cover 4" with each turn. A 4' will cover 4 feet. 4 feet = 48" 48"/4=12

Why isn't the kid wearing shoes? lol

Phobia 06-07-2007 10:11 AM

I can't wait for the guy to make a mint by suing the carrier. You know there were 30 ambulance chasers just outside the shot in that picture waiting for an opportunity to make their pitch.

I think wheels are typically measured in diameter.

A 4" diameter wheel would have a circumference of about 12 inches (2*pi*r).

A 48" diameter wheel would have a circumference of about 144 inches (2*pi*r)

The little wheel would be spinning exactly 12 times for every one revoluation of the big wheel.


And the guy's not wearing shoes BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WALK.
