I think the title explains it.

Crazy Japanese!  All I can say is watch out for the big tires!

It's always fun until someone gets poked in the eye...

PS. We have a particularly steep street heading downtown here. Mr son and his fiancee were driving up it recently when they met a tyre/rim coming down the other way. Apparently it had fallen off a vehicle at the top. Needless to say it made a bit of a mess of their car!

 As a kid we used to go to the tire shops and get truck and tractor tubes, inflate them then tie two or three together and climb inside and go down the hills, either jumping them to see who could get the highest, or down the other hill and riding them into the pond.

ken.

We used to air up old tire tubes and head for the lake.

Yeah but have you gone down in a tire like the last one!
