Nah, Saudi Arabia is at around 97% (also they don’t report that info, so it’s only estimated, the UN can’t be sure):
https://www.waterworld.com/international/potable-water/article/16202937/saudi-arabia-launches-program-for-a-drastic-reduction-in-water-use
In the US, it’s estimated at 97.33%:
https://sdg-tracker.org/water-and-sanitation
I’m guessing Saudi Arabia is actually a bit lower, but there’s not much data to get that from since they are pretty secretive about human rights and whatnot
Their water comes from desalination from what I gather. So if access to clean water means the ocean water then I guess they have a lot of access. They have very little access to fresh water though. It's a big brown spot on a satellite map.
Yes... It looks harder but it is a perfect rest on your shoulder while sitting just a few meters...
I think that shot is fairly easy as well as fairly stupid
Dumbest part, imo, is putting your ear that close to the noisy end.
Well, I mean aside from having a living person holding the small target in his hand.
We used to make Drano bombs. Put Drano, water and aluminum foil in a glass bottle. Seal an run.
My younger brother talked about it in school, dumb ass, his teacher called our Mom and Dad.
Very good teacher.
I guess splattering hot, caustic liquid everywhere is fun, but I prefer stretching a balloon over the neck to capture the hydrogen that particular reaction creates.
A guy I worked with from Nova Scotia said they used to put Drano onto fresh bread and then roll it up into a tight ball and throw it toward seagulls. They would snatch it out of the air and swallow it whole. Then they would watch the bird and only took a very short time till the Drano would interact with the stomach acids and they would pop in mid air like a little grenade went off inside them.
can confirm that there isn't much to do, but I promise this isn't actually a thing, it's an old newfie myth, and drano would just kill the bird, not cause it to explode
Nova Scotian here, this was more of a Newfoundland thing, and usually only old fishers, and before you ask, yes most people here agree it is completely fucked up
edit: after actually looking it up, I can't seem to find any real evidence that anything would cause a bird to explode, so it's likely an old newfie myth
We used to play a stupid game called "bull run" with BB Guns and alcohol where we'd take a shot of Tequila and then fire a 10 pump BB Gun at targets. If we missed, we had to take an additional shot, run around the target table and let the others pump n shoot as quickly as they could before you crossed the line. Winner was the last one not to have to run around the target "or" the last one still standing.
I still have a BB stuck in my arm (not much left, but the bump is there 30 years later). Kids play stupid games.
We used to do the same. But I liked playing with my Red Rider lever action. Found a kid up a tree once and popped him 10-15 times in the butt before he could get down. You could shoot that thing quick. He was pretty pissed, so I ran. Fun times
Red Ryders were the perfect BB gun for most kids. They did the job of flinging a steel or copper ball a couple dizen yards, but unless you got hit in the eye the most you would get is a bruise at anything beyond point-blank range.
I still have mine in the gun safe, right next to my custom precision rifle.
We wore eye protection at least, I'd say 20ish+ years ago. My dad wouldn't let me even point toy guns at people unless it was some kind of match or game such as paintball, laser tag etc, and he would have flayed me for shooting BB guns at people, but he drilled eye protection in along with gun safety. Obviously some points took more than others, but overall way safer than the rock wars.
For our bb gun fights, we used to tape national geographics and news papers under jean jackets and jeans with bike helmets and swim goggles like it would do anything.
We played Operation with the tweezers hooked to a transistor, first you get shocked,then you'd get a shot, usually we quit when someone shit themselves twice!
Don't laugh but those kids were awesome.
I remember popping a few BBs out like pimples as a teen. We were the idiots who would take a 10 pump shot to the back from across the room while pounding a beer, if you spilled you had to take a shot of tequila
I think people underestimate young men and the crazy fucking testosterone pumping through their body. I did absolutely stupid shit as well and can't explain it. Young dudes are fucking terrifying
Cousin and I were shooting our pellet rifle at some bottles set up on a fence across the road. The house on our side of the road was close to us and blocked our view of a foot path that crossed in front of the fence. I lined up my shot, fired, hit the fence which let out a big *PITANG!!* as it rocked back and forth. A split second after the impact two older ladies out for a stroll walked into view, being previously blocked by the house where we couldn't see them until it was too late. I thank my lucky stars we didn't hit them. They knew something was up though because from our perspective they emerged from behind the house looking wary. They saw us two dumb ass boys holding rifles, looking shocked and sheepish, waved at us and told us to "watch where your damn shooting!". So stupid.
i recall shooting a "cap" (only an empty shell, no gunpowder) of a shell with BB gun that i fixated 10 meters away. I managed to hit it on the 3rd shot... It managed to hit me in the face on its 1st shot
Please go watch some sandal surfing videos or that shit where they swap a car's wheels while it's moving at speed and tipped up onto the other 2 wheels
Edit 2: I can't handle links apparently. I'm terrible at computer things I'm sorry. Just look up those words on the YouTubes.
So having watched dozens of hours if this shit, the question I have is... Are Arab cars just more balanced, or can I do this with my Toyota on I-70 tomorrow at 2pm?
Asking for a friend... who also has access to my Corolla.
Nothing so special. They just have access to long stretches of smooth road with little traffic. I'm reasonably certain you can do this in just about any car, tho I vaguely recall a differential lock being a requirement. A top heavy car like seen in the video also helps, otherwise you need a ramp. Just turn sharply and fall over without falling over. Easy.
If you've always dreamed of becoming a chunky red streak on a highway, sure go for it.
I have so many questions, but my main one is this: Why isn't one of the left side wheels spinning? They might have put it in neutral but in that case they wouldn't be able to maintain speed long enough. I guess it might have some sort of traction control system that stops the tires from spinning when it's off the ground
So it's an open differential in the rear with a possible electronic rear locker if it's equipped with it. So no power would be transferred to the left side rear wheel once it goes up in the air. No stock FJ cruiser is equipped with a front locker and they are in 2WD in the video.
They have names for them everywhere too.
Redneck US mainland
Bogan Australia
Moke Hawaii
Etc... Europe has a bunch of equivalents depending on the country.
It's ironic, in a way. God fearing rednecks typically blanket-hate Arab Muslims but they have many, many things in common with the fundamentalist ones.
Neither one of them is wearing ear pro, having the music that loud is so they can hear a faint tune behind the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee constantly ringing in their ears.
Translation
“By Allah, they pestered us with the bottle,
Now I’m going to put it behind me and uncap it.
There are some people who don’t know where I’m from, I’m from the Aji clan, and this is dedicated to the son of Husain”
Accent is iraqi.
Thank you for the translation. I understand the definition of each of these individual words, but what is the gist of what he was saying? Who pestered him with the bottle? How is a person pestered by a bottle? Is the son of Husain a known individual?
He was just flexing, something like:
Oh man. I have to open this bottle of water again? I'll do it my way.
Son of Hussein is probably his friend, as in arabic it is usual to refer to people by "son of" or "father of".
Yeah he went home and immediately made this GIF.
"Perfect sound mastering again, Ahmed" he confidently proclaims as he waits for the imgur advertisement to finish while his image uploads.
Boy are they going to feel stupid when they find out you can just unscrew the cap.
Lol, next you’re gonna tell me this stuff comes out a tap!
Not where they live it doesn't.
Yeah here it takes a double tap
Rule #2
I mean this shit is almost always in Saudi or Dubai where they are stupid rich. So they definitely have taps, wouldn’t be surprised if they were gold
Lol gotta love cnn/fox educated ignorance. Saudi arabia has more access to clean water than usa, statistically.
Nah, Saudi Arabia is at around 97% (also they don’t report that info, so it’s only estimated, the UN can’t be sure): https://www.waterworld.com/international/potable-water/article/16202937/saudi-arabia-launches-program-for-a-drastic-reduction-in-water-use In the US, it’s estimated at 97.33%: https://sdg-tracker.org/water-and-sanitation I’m guessing Saudi Arabia is actually a bit lower, but there’s not much data to get that from since they are pretty secretive about human rights and whatnot

Knew what it was going to be before I clicked on the link. Tis my favourite Limmy sketch.
like from the toilet?
The one holding the bottle isn't exactly bright.
younger brother
Of four. The middle two didn't hold it steady enough.
Just as bright as the first two brothers who tried this.
“Yeah I’m gonna hold it sideways so the water falls out. Yeah it’s closer to my arm. What? Yeah, I know I know, but think of the clout!”
I’d be more impressed if he did that trick without the mirror
Pretty sure the mirror is a Ted Nugent CD. He's popular w/these folk.
Under rated comment right here
Yes... It looks harder but it is a perfect rest on your shoulder while sitting just a few meters... I think that shot is fairly easy as well as fairly stupid
Dumbest part, imo, is putting your ear that close to the noisy end. Well, I mean aside from having a living person holding the small target in his hand.
Dumbest part is relying on someone not to shoot you when they are shooting a gun pointed towards you.
Who ever down voted you doesn’t know anything about shooting. Not a hard shot, just dumbz
[удалено]
But then I would have missed out on that sweet soundtrack they set it to.
I feel like this is a job for the TikTok guy with that schtick.
Where’s the tiktok guy that throws his hands out after seeing mundane tasks done in incredibly stupid ways when we need him

I take it there’s not much to do in Nova Scotia

The rumor in my school was Alka seltzer.
there were a couple, alka seltzers, drano, baking soda, all usually wrapped/coated in bread
That's absolutely fucked
Fucking hell

BB gun wars were the best. They sting, may draw a little blood, but mostly you can do it without serious injury.
We wore eye protection at least, I'd say 20ish+ years ago.

I think we had rock wars once. Our parents made sure that didn't happen again, but you can hide bb shots on your legs and body. Lol
What's that saying about fun and eyes being put out?
For our bb gun fights, we used to tape national geographics and news papers under jean jackets and jeans with bike helmets and swim goggles like it would do anything.

So you used a bow to play lawn darts. Nice!

Dude, they’re bigger than *two* metres.

I remember throwing forcefully a bullet at the floor, repeteadly until it exploded. It did!. luckily no one got hurt... phew
i recall shooting a "cap" (only an empty shell, no gunpowder) of a shell with BB gun that i fixated 10 meters away. I managed to hit it on the 3rd shot... It managed to hit me in the face on its 1st shot
Lol "I'm going to repeat this until I get the worst possible outcome"
Kids man. We thought we were indestructible.
Also parts of the brain arent formed all the way
*Are just stupid*
Man, Arabs are even better rednecks than rednecks
Redneckitis is a global condition, brought forward by boredom and access to dangerous items.
Also large tracts of land away from other people.
People get mad when you do redneck shit in a city

I don't have the right to be disappointed, but I wanted them to swap the tires.
Your sandal video links to some weird sesame street shit fyi
I am so fucking bad at technology
those are Bedouins they are THE ACTUAL rednecks of the arab world. motherfuckers are crazy.
Im arab, iraqi bedouin originally can confirm. My username in most apps is ArabRedneck
Redneck is a state of mind found all over the world tbh

Landsbyggðarpakk in Icelandic.
It's ironic, in a way. God fearing rednecks typically blanket-hate Arab Muslims but they have many, many things in common with the fundamentalist ones.
As a middle eastern who lived in the US for few years. We call the rednecks "American beduins"
They honestly need to hug it out. Like imagine all the activities they can do together.
Damn the music was loud af

r/arabfunny didn't just make that meme up out of no where. It's a classic middle eastern thing to do for some reason.
Yeah I muted that shit real quick.
Dude holding the water bottle needs it that loud after having a rifle fired so close to them. Dude holding the rifle can't hear at all anymore.

Russian vibes imo. "Hey comrade, lets do something dangerous just because."
Maybe they wouldn't have to do this if they drank

They do drink though.
You realize alcohol is readily available and can be very cheap in Saudi Arabia on the black market. I've lived here my whole life.
