Tell us you have no experience with parrots without telling us you have no experience with parrots.

I only heard that term when I moved to the Midwest. One of many odd things they say.

The blocks don't need to be straight so long as the load is centered and even. The mortar makes it more like a continuous piece than if you had just stacked them with no mortar. Sort of like stacking irregular stones.

To be clear, it isn't the right way, but it can be fine.

I have seen so many shit jobs like this and had to fix them. The trades joke that masons are the biggest alcoholics and we joke that this type of work is a Monday morning, after lunch, or Friday special; because this sort of nonsense with masonry work is so common.

Those 16x4x8 blocks can hold around 2,000 psi. So an overhang like that isn't a big deal. The wood shoring holds like half or a quarter of that.

This is the interior of the column, there was a facade around it. You can tell because the mortar in some places are flat from when it was against the facade.

Was it made properly? Not really for supporting a lot of weight, but it was probably fine depending how that overhang was made.

Why should you stop the hot chick at crystals and astrology? This is where you end up and you may not like it when she takes you there.

The rich, because you will still be poor and they will be there to sell you everything once the dust settles.

That's like a 2/10. He has 3 points of contact.

In order for something to tip over, the center of mass has to move outside the area of the base and most of the weight is in the bottom part of the lift. So it is basically impossible without actively trying to tip it over.

I have done way sketchier shit than that. That is like a 4/10.

The floats are EZDocks, each with a carrying capacity of 3,000lbs, total capacity is 12,000lbs.

The lift is a JLG 3246es, which has a weight of less than 5,000lbs.

Most of the weight is at the bottom and you have to have the center of mass go outside of the base to tip over.

That is designed for that.

Heavens no, his elevator takes a lifetime and you don't get to listen to baby shark anywhere as much.

Baby shark on loop.

The elevator will take roughly an hour to descend 100m without an access card that only I have.

Man, it is a shame you can't buy class because you could use some.

His memory lives on in our early 2000s shock site rotted brains.

Virtual X-ray of the nature and cause of death of "Mr Hands".

Or the things the knives whisper.

Small planes and jets are the lion's share of aircraft incidents. They aren't inspected as often(more in the case of personal planes), lack the stability of larger craft, and aren't always flown by experienced pilots. Not to mention they frequent small dirt or grass airfields instead of commercial airport tarmac.

There are like 3-5 small aircraft crashes a day. Small aircraft crash at like 25x the rate of larger craft.

Jet engines are enclosed in a cowling that is designed to handle the engine coming apart. The smallest defect in a jet engine's turbine blades can mean it detaches or deforms, which then causes further damage that will be injested by the engine.

Propellers have free access to the cabin but are subjected to far less forces than the blades of a jet engine, so their failure is less likely, even if damage is undetected.

Do with that what you will.
