Had a bad moment at work today

Went out on call to a petrol refinery to fit some tyres to a lorry,

One of the rears had a puncture so I removed the wheel to have a looky, found the valve to be fracture so changed that,

Was blowing the tyre up to 120 psi, I was around the 110psi mark and it bloody exploded

To say I mildly skid marked my pants is putting it lightly, it took me off my feet

Probably quite funny to watch but not to happen to me, Now I have pains in my leg and I have a date with the pub in an hour

Will I recover or is it AIDS?

A guy was killed blowing up a truck tyre when my dad was working for Dunlop. Didn't use the guard thing and the tyre let go.

Is it rude to share?

Or is it the polite thing to do?

Smaller ones do more damage imo

The 17.5 inch tyres are so strong on the sidewall that you cant really move them when there's no air in them

The one where they put the motorbike next to the wheel, then shot the tyre
