    True - otherwise that wheel would splinter anything else.

    Too much spare time + no fear of busted shins, knees, ankles, etc.

    HA- yes, workin' on the railroad also had some strange playtime.

    Imagine driving spikes all day and laying RR ties then for kicks, rolling around a 900-lb wheel.
