Emotive twaddle.
On Carvers northern scooter jaunt he was invited and stayed with us for a night. Not only were his road manners impeccable [when I rode with him], but he proved to be a gentleman and welcome house guest.
You're running your mouth off and not cognisant of who you are dealing with.
Hey i heard the judge had viewed some of his other stuff ..the bonnet surfing past the mormon temple ...also heard the judge was a morman...so when you drop the soap in the shower dont bend over to pick it up
if you think life is 2 short , get a taller one

I would have thought that any one who uses the words "emotive twaddle" is more likely to be suffering from being emotionally overwrought (and lacking the cogent means to argue the point).
Firstly, I know exactly who I'm dealing with.
Secondly, I could care less what he does, and have already stated several times for the record that I thought what he did was pretty cool. He may or may not be highly skilled (and note his claims to trials competency are yet to backed up by any documentary evidence), however it's not him that is the problem - it's the next guy, and the one after that.
It's not emotive - just the opposite - it's about due process, the system and adhering to it where there is potential risk to other individuals. That's the only issue for me.
Oscar and me hang out with a professional Stunt Man. We've seen and heard the OSH and ACC rigmarole involved in being mad, correctly.
If Carver had followed that Due Process I would have run it on the front page. He didn't - I couldn't - I hope he gets it right next time and I will.
Carver would loving the attention his name is getting in this thread, there is only one other ''ex'' memeber who is above him in the attention stakes.
Thanks for the mental imagery yesterday Jon-Boy, didnt stop me from sleeping last night.
But....A profesional stuntman is working as such and earning a living from it and complience in the work place is required. The OSH and ACC and dept of labour rigmarole in the employment stakes do not apply to non-commercial activities to anywhere near the same degree. Your friend is already frustrated with OSH and ACC in the workplace....do we really want to apply those same rules and constraints to our leisure activities, I think not.
What leisure activity? - it was staged for broadcast - showbusiness baby.
The only time I can recall him being frustrated by said rigmarole was when it didn't work. He was in a brace for weeks after the chocolate wheel crash.
The rest of it I think they regard as necessary precautions so they can continue to do stunt work - alive.
My point is that (if it were even possible?) to do it 'by the book' - ie Actor's equity, guarantee no-one else is going get fallen on - he's on the front page - Freelance it and you're on the Courts page.
Way it is.
I know half a dozen people that could lay claim to having had sufficient skill & training to be able to drive from Auckland to Wellington, after finishing off a dozen Tuis after work.
They probably also feel that they pose no danger to themselves or anyone else.
Yeah Right.
Keep on chooglin'
I disagree. The judge in this case has performed any thing but due process, preferring instead to grand stand, offer personal opinion and unduly influence due process.
As far as OSH and ACC 'rigmarole' is concerned; both industries do everything they can to not only justify their own existence, but to create as much 'rigmarole' and red tape as possible.
Carver talked about risk mitigation; a good deal of time was put into training and careful assessment of the potential risks involved. Getting a piece of paper from the judge/council/ACC or some OSH representative would not have changed the risk factor.
On a side note: Anybody screaming to have Paeroa racing stopped?.......a sanctioned event complete with risk mitigation, sanctioned by the paper shufflers and someone still dies!
>>only justify their own existence, but to create as much 'rigmarole' and red tape as possible.<<
Do you really believe that?
>>Getting a piece of paper from the judge/council/ACC or some OSH representative would not have changed the risk factor.<<
Do you really believe that?
Oh boy that put me in my place...........not
Dude the cheesecutter lol, thats only a piece of it, and what a wanker he proved to be there as well.
(for those that dont know) we made a large protest about the tragic accident on the Auckalnd motorway in which a young rider was killed, it had a reasonably large Police presence as well as TV and other Medias present, the ride went well apart from ""said Moron" who decided it would be good to do wheelies and stoppies in full view of the media and police.....
Im assuming though that because he was "gentlemanly" at your house then this is acceptable?
Or is your self proclaimed righteousness only apply to the "Putting public safety at risk" bridge situation, cause after all "we where all young once and no one was hurt" which is clearly the fashionable opinion of his his gay lovers and stupid people.
lol
Re Paeroa, well who knows.............who put the forklift there? probably someone young, oh well ..........live and learn eh, the person responsible is probably a gentlemen, we should forget about it eh?
Ive run out of fucks to give
I should have had a go on the CR!
for gods sake, it never made news, and now what are you doing about the said cc issue?
Nothing, that soap box is gone for you?
You and the old crowd off here used to blitz the coro, and i know that you have put others lives in danger by the way you rode.
before you slag me off, take a look at yourself.
You are trying to paint me into a corner here brett, but those who know me seem to object, and i wonder why?
Funny how you are always so nice to me in real life, never a bad word said, but on here.... you seek to crucify me.
I would like you to have a go, ask for permission and all that.
You can use my Gas Gas if you want
NZ's most notorious stunt crew.
owning you!
