They all look like it's just a matter of time till they shred the side of your torso or take a finger.

Sounds like a Tuesday in the 70s and 80s.

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

That’s an observation rather than a reference, yeah? I remember the not exactly gung-ho approach to personal safety back then.

I'll remember this next time I make a sliding gate

Which will be never

[–] JimmyBigSausage@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago

Would love to see and hear some interesting gate latches. (That swing shut)

This is good shit.

A GIF with sounds? What kind of sorcery is this?

I can't wrap my head around how the fourth one works.

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The metal plate isn't flat. It bends upwards with a prong shaped piece. It's hard to see, but look at the reflections of light on it.

[–] pezhore@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ah, yeah, that makes sense. It just looked like a weirdly cut metal plate flush on the top of the rail.

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Same. I had to watch it a few times to find it myself

[–] Vorticity@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

What is it about the sounds in this that reminds me of a 2000s video game?

That second one is my favorite
