Not enough space and too much belt tension, but still fun to watch. (Sorry if this is a repost)

That was AWESOME!

Methinks this would go poorly on a 993.

Fun vid. Notice the guy didn't show us how many fingers he's missing on the other hand

If I did something like that I wouldn't be able to count to 10. Depending on which finger it was I may not be able to flip anyone off; that would really suck in traffic!

Neat trick, but that's one chewed-up generator pulley.

I hope his friend didn't die from a flat blade screwdriver piercing his heart or a lung.

still a pretty slick trick.

Thats pretty cool but I change my timing chain on the 993 like that all the time.
So nothing special really.
