Cool.

Reminds me of several years ago; at a construction site here in town there were putting up a HUGE outdoor ampitheater with a canvas roof. One of the guys on the job gets impatient and decides to winch it into place using the winch on the front of his brand new Tahoe. Everything was going until a gust of wind comes up. The canvas top inflated and picked the Tahoe up like a toy, sending it about 50 feet in the air. It comes crashing down over 300 feet away from where it originally was. People on the jobsite said it looked like a toy flying through the air. Luckily nobody was hurt.

Try explaining THAT to your insurance company.
