so there you have, conclusive proof that if you have a soft yellow head get yourself a helmet. Also, carry out experiments where you get to eat the results.
Safety flip flops (obvs). I am well known at work for the “sandals of invincibility”. These give me the special power of standing back and pointing at what needs to be done. That and hold the rubber clipboard 😀
In addition to replicating the scenario of your child being decapitated whilst up a ladder I assume you’ll be performing a set of more transport-related experiments such as mounting melons on a tripod on a zebra crossing and driving a car into them, or borrowing a tailor’s dummy to place inside the car with a replacement melon head while you drive another car into it 😉
Yes, if only to teach him to him to ignore his sanctimonious prick of a dad
Ok, bit weird now. Do you have a private issue with me that I’m not aware of? Do I know you?
I’m struggling to see how a bloke messing about with his 6yr old can elicit such a reaction. I can only conclude the issue lies elsewhere. Can you please let me know WTF it is?
Well i approve. Extra points for a picture of you hanging your boy upside down from the ladder wearing a helmet of course. All excuses for home experiments are always good
My views on helmets are well known. I saw this as a bit of dad / son fun, a bit of looking into how experiments work and nothing more.
Why a couple of folk got their knickers in such a twist is beyond me.
I’m a libertarian, people can wear them if they like, what other people do without affecting others is their domain, bothers me not. Just teaching him about theory and how to document an experiment. I’ll get him to write it up properly and share it in class.
Oddly, reminded me of the Great Egg Race tv series, remember that??!!
Professor Hienz Wolfe and all that. Ace programme. A bit like Crystal Maze, I bet a re-run would highlight that we as a nation now lack problem solving and creativity skills…
Nice one, I am always doing random, sometimes daft nonsense with the kids and they love it. Funny enough it is often that sort of thing that they bring up in conversation years later and not the stuff we would expect them to remember.
