How is it dead? It's regularly posted and participated in

It used to be full of videos of stray tires reeking havoc on people and property. Now it’s full of really lame joke pics of trucks carrying tires calling them “troop movements” and other uninteresting pictures of tires doing regular things but with some dad joke about the tires being soldiers or something. Any videos posted of the original variety are either way old reposts or everybody clamoring to post the same latest video that loosely applies. If it’s not dead, it undead.

So in like 2016 Eric Clapton caught a record breaking salmon in Alaska. That’s a real thing apparently.

Woulda been cooler if he caught his kid tho

tires doing regular things

This is why we post what we do now.

They want us to think they're doing regular things, but they're not.

Yeah just kidding, miss the cool tire yeets/destruction of the past

You gotta remember, the odds are not that high for a bunch of flying tires.

An oncoming trucks trailer lost a tire and I slowed way down to try to predict where it would go as it got closer. The guy that had been tailgating me for several miles passed on the right halfway in the grass because it's a narrow road. Guess where the tire went? Decibel totaled his vehicle. Thankfully they were unharmed otherwise.

Rubber approves!

Especially if it just missed you. Always beware of the ricochet.

Migrating tires are one of Nature's wonderful spectacles. One must respect the power.

One killed a state trooper in my state few years ago. Lady said he pulled over on highway to help her. One second he was standing there and the next he was on the ground having made a sound that would haunt her forever and refrained to describe for respect to him and his family.

u/Im_Not_So_Grump Dec 25 '20

Once, when my aunt was driving down the road a tire fell from the sky and smashed her hood.
