    When I was a kid, all of our Dads were this cool! :)

    Maybe when the kid gets his degree from cal tech he can fix the old man’s design flaws!

    My dad just let me run around in the wilderness. Hey, I had a Paul Bunyon 25 lb. recurve bow and four arrows. I was fearless. Where did those days go?

    Cool. Needs a better lift system though.

    We never wore helmets when I was a kid. Still have the knots and scars to prove it.

    I have a mangled knee from a bike fall in second grade. (hey, look at me, no hands, standing up and coasting on my 2 wheeler) It was a great fall.

    Everyone ooohed at my scar. A helmet would have done nothing.

    Dad had to carry me up the stairs to my classroom after I returned to school a week later.

    Father of the year. All that effort so he kid can have fun.

    Clever track plan. Small concern with brittleness of PVC in the cold.

    Way cool. Lucky kid to have a dad who builds things, fixes things instead of “having it done”. I fear they are a dying breed.

    I’m surprised that every kid within a six-block radius wasn’t there.
    When I was a kid, my backyard had some cool stuff and the whole neighborhood used to hang out there.
    At least my Mom knew where I was…most of the time.

    Check the video at 1:04.
    What did she SAY?

    Like Obama said, the Dad didn’t build that.
    It’s not like Dad has his own refinery to make the chemicals, to make the PVC.

    Janet Napolitano is preparing a SWAT team to take out this public safety menace before too many innocent children see it.

    And the elementary school has hired Counselors to talk to the children who witnessed this unrestricted joy.

    You think I’m being cynical?
    What this country needs is less parents doing things like this.

    Have you had a chance to send $3 to Michelle so she can buy Obama his birfday card ?

    that would be a great addition to the 3 story tree house my bro and i built for his kids. No one has ever worn a helmut climbing up in it either.

    Hey, if the kid’s strapped in and the “rails” are well tied down, every other possible safety flaw seems to be covered except for diving hawks and flying Obamarroid monkeys.

    How cool is that! You can tell that this father has a great love for his son who, as a result, will grow up with a supreme confidence.

    The kid doesn’t have two Mommies, no two Daddies, and they likely eat at Chick-fil-A. Plus, the kid’s getting a Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas.

    Sweeet.

    That dad “ain’t so smart.” Someone helped him build that rollercoaster; he didn’t do it on his own! /so

    Seriously. What a great dad. That kid will remember it all his life.

    That is so cool! Now I’m inspired to do the same thing…but I’d probably fuck it up.
