People keep messing with my VX

Your frame runs clean up through your fender? One hell of a sturdy VX you must have there.

*poke poke nudge nudge*

Still, I would have called police, no matter how cool those cats seemed and filed a vandalism report. No guarantee your damage will get repaired by those clowns. (though I think the cop would be asking the same questions we are, hahaha)

Ok, ok, you caught me. Its a super duper rare VX with lightweight aluminum body panels and an aluminum space frame


So frame isn't the right word for whatever it is behind the fender

Mythbusters?

How much damage can a water balloon really do?!

I'd just love to see when they go for maximum damage-- that would be a killer water balloon!

A friend of mine recently referred me to this article about a 19 year old facing charges from "smashing" a windshield with a water balloon.


EDIT: And he just found this too...

In field trials, maximum water balloon velocities ranged from 38 to 41 m/sec (85 to 92 mph) with kinetic energies from 176 to 245 J; by calculation, maximum velocities ranged from 42 to 54 m/sec (95 to 121 mph) with kinetic energies from 141 to 232 J. In a field demonstration a 300-g water balloon launched horizontally from a distance of 20 ft exploded a 12-kg watermelon. Classic physics calculations are presented to explain the complex bio-mechanical interactions between the water balloon and the eye. CONCLUSION: Kinetic energies of launched water balloons are comparable to or greater than kinetic energies experienced with a variety of common objects, including file bullets, which are well known to cause serious ocular and orbital injuries.

However the metal used in building a vehicle has baan shown to be stronger than the skin and fluid that make up the eye. The eye itself is a sort of water balloon so the two objects are similar. For a vehicle comparison you would need to crash two vehicles not a water balloon and a vehicle

This thread makes me want to hit myself in the face with a water balloon.

please take a video!!!

This thread makes me want to hit you with a water balloon too. BTW stay away from the eyes

It definitely looks like those punks filled the balloon with hard water...

[Jolly Roger VX'er]

You don't EVEN want to use my well water to fill up water balloons .....when I shower it feels as though I'm enduring a hail storm


You think "Mike's Hard Lemonade" is hard...try mine...lol.
