Yes but only Cubans could make it float loaded with that many people AND find a way to power it across the gulf.

Anyone remember the 1951 Chevy truck? A prop was attached to the driveshaft with a top cruising speed of 8mph.



Coast Guard caught them and sank it. They tried again with a 1959 Buick with a boat bow welded to the front.



Okay, that's enough OT/Cuban Engeering for today.

Required Lexus Content: My SC is Cuban Engineered -- it just doesn't float.

Come on.....I agree about doing really stupid things, but give them a little break. YOU were once young YOURSELF, weren't you? Didn't YOU enjoy a little fun once in a while? I know I did....within reason. There's nothing wrong with a little good, CLEAN fun...as long as it doesn't involve illegal drugs, binge drinking, getting girls pregnant, etc.....
College courses can drive you nuts if you don't have a way to let off a little steam now and then.

Now imagine the first person that got in the car is lactose intolerant. He mistakenly chugs a large glass of whole milk as opposed to his glass of Lactaid sitting next to the milk. Right about the same time that number 21 gets in........."THAR SHE BLOWS!!!!!!!"

Actually......this could end up being good practice. Learning to put your nose next to people's a - -es will help get you ready for the corporate world (and sometimes Government).

Just think how many more they could have squeezed in there if they used kids/midgets instead.

You're right, they are tiny. I'm not a big guy myself (5' 7") and when I stand next to a Mini, I feel even bigger. Some of those guys are just a tad taller than the roof of the MINI.
