  • This is why you guys went to war in Iraq? Oil for your jet-boots?
  • Yes! I mean, no, of course not. That's just silly.
  • Hey man.. When the terrorists attack, you'll be glad you have those jet-boots to get away from the terrorist attack!
  • Everybody wants, at some level, to be the Silver Surfer.
  • I broke my hip on non-power rollerblades once. It aches from just LOOKING at those things!
  • UNCLE DARWIN'S DOUBLE-BARRELED EVOLVER IS BEING COCKED
  • Never mind the skates - the real menace is at the bottom of the article: Experts reckon the black market trade [in fake Heely shoes - that's those ones that children wear to roll around the supermarket] is funding more sinister crimes such as drug trafficking, people smuggling and even terrorism. Ah, the Daily Mail, where the spectre of terrorism lurks around every corner!
  • David Morton, of Bournemouth trading standards, said as well as the speed danger, the skates have a plastic petrol tank which poses a serious fire risk. I'd watch that on youtube. "And on tonights show, how fast can YOU get your foot out of a rollerblade ..."
  • Hey guys! Who wants to go Darwinblading?
  • Good thing these are available... my cooler just wasn't fast enough.
  • FTW
  • FTW x2 har!
