UPDATE: I’m trashing the tire flip idea. It turns out it’s going to make it less fun the more safe I try to make it, and it’s been pointed out a few times if there ever IS an accident over there the insurance would likely not cover that. So any other ideas would be supah swell!

I have a challenge for you!

THE SITUATION: Here sits a large tractor tire. It is 4 feet and 8 inches tall – and it’s quite heavy. 400 to 500 pounds, according to ChatGPT ! I’d like to install this bad boy here at the campground over in the community area games as a “tire flip” test of strength.

All this thing needs is enough space to be flipped over to one side and then flipped right back to the other side.

THE PROBLEM: The tire is big and heavy and… how you say? … DANGEROUS. I’m sure anyone reading this, whether or not you’re a deviant malcontent, can imagine all kinds of tragedies that might happen here. Flattened child. Flattened pet. Flattened lunch. These are all serious potential issues but they all have one thing in common: DEATH BY SQUISHING!

So help me out with some ideas of how something like this can be installed in a confined area which would also minimize or eliminate the possibility of any physical danger. Of course it may turn out that there is no way to create something like this without too much risk of significant harm and in that case I’ll just take this project off the table, but for right now I’m trying to figure out how to make it work.

So unleash any ideas!!! Try to think of something legit if you can because I really want this to work. But if you just can’t think of a single helpful idea then feel free to be ludicrous about your solution. If there’s going to be any tragic accident, at the very least it might as well be hilarious.

Note: Yes, of course I know this is potentially dangerous which is the point of this whole brainstorming session. Don’t worry, I’m not going to let harm come to any children out here – as long as they’re following the rules then I’m okay they’re okay, everyone’s okay. 😉

Post Note Follow-up: I hope it goes without saying that I was kidding up there. I want everyone to be happy and healthy always. In fact maybe we’ll install a tiny tire toss for tots and toddlers!

Alright. Drop me a comment and let me know what you’ve got swirling around the brains and let’s get this done!

Your biggest fans,

Clifford and Sandy!
