A new book as surfaced which will be of great interest to most of the members of this group. If you ever dreamed of learning the fantastic skills of James Bond, you'll want a copy of this book. Heres the title followed by a few of the how-to chapters. The material in this book is presented in a dead serious manner. This is NOT a satire or joke book. Title: The WORST-CASE SCENARIO Survival Handbook Authors: Joshua Pivin & David Borgeicht
-HOW TO JUMP FROM A BRIDGE INTO A RIVER -HOW TO BREAK INTO A CAR AND HOT-WIRE IT -HOW TO LAND AN AIRPLANE -HOW TO FIGHT A SHARK, GRIZZLEY BEAR OR MOUNTIAN LION WITH YOUR BARE HANDS -HOW TO BREAK DOWN A DOOR (EXACTLY WHERE TO KICK) -HOW TO DELIVER A BABY IN A TAXI-CAB -HOW TO JUMP FROM A MOTORCYCLE ONTO A MOVING CAR. -HOW TO RUN ON TOP OF A SPEEDING TRAIN -HOW TO SURVIVE IF OUR PARACHUTE FAILS TO OPEN -HOW TO GET TO THE SURFACE IF YOUR SCUBA TANK RUNS OUT OF AIR -HOW TO SURVIVE AN AVALANCHE (WHILE SKING WITH BAD GUYS IN HOT PURSUIT) -HOW TO BEAT THE LIVING HELL OUT OF AN ATTACKING ALLIGATOR WITH YOUR BARE HANDS -HOW TO RAM A CAR -HOW TO DO A 180 TURN IN A SPEEDING AUTOMOBILE -HOW TO WIN A SWORD FIGHT -HOW TO TAKE PUNCHES WITHOUT GETTING HURT -HOW TO JUMP FROM A MOVING CAR (IF BEING KIDNAPPED) -HOW TO SURVIVE MACHINE GUN FIRE FROM A MOVING CAR WHILE WALKING. The book also chapters on surviving everything from attacking poisonous snakes to getting hit by lightening and much, much more. I would have paid $100 for this information without thinking about it. Fortunately, the book sells for $14.95. Its available through any bookstore. Perhaps if we all buy a copy the authors will be inspired to write volume 2.

a search for the title on amazon.com gives results of the forementioned book with: ISBN: 0811825558 and a price of $11.96 what a bargain if it is truly as summarized. ~m3nth~ |

Does anyone here know if MacGyver made a book? That was my favorite T.V. show in the 80's, I think he's the reason I got into explosives. Him and his improvised weapons and bombs. I know a couple of you seen this show and I once saw a manual or book with MacGyvers name on it, thats why I asked that question. It was probrably written by someone who was inspired by the show. ------------------ |

That 180 degree turn is known as the Bootlegger's Turn in E&E driving. You should see how cool it looks when done with a presidential limo.
