Same . And the amount of people defending the people putting up cables is insane! Im hearing stories of kids dying ! I even saw one about a child watching her dad be decapitated . I’m so disappointed in humans.
Preventing trespassing is building a barricade, or fence around your house. Not attaching a 35 pound steel wire to a tree at neck height. It crazy how y’all are trying to justify this by “trespassing,” when this almost certainly is a trail.
Number one it's not his trail number 2 Bowie traps are still highly illegal if it can be proven that they were intended to kill. Especially if there isn't a clear barricade or property line. @@squarebodyseth5986
The same people claim you can kill in self defence even if the threat is low. I watched someone pull a gun over amazon packages. He's stealing, not killing or threatening... like yeah, flash it. But no need to point at a thief who's not armed.
The reason these people put up traps like this is because they’ve already tried the things you mentioned and disrespectful bikers just cut their fences/damage their property and trespass anyways. Stay off land that doesn’t belong to you and you don’t have to worry about it.
If it's on an obviously public trail especially. If you're *trespassing*, AND you pass someone's fenceline or signs indicading such? If you get yourself clotheslined at that point, well... that is on you. Last time I lived out in the middle of nowhere, I did like to hand my no-trespassing signs on ropes like that. Very visible. you *will* see it. But it also sends a message.
Yesn't. If it's private property it's the bikers fault to even drive there - meaning the bikers are the only ones doing something illegal here. But again, that's only if it's private property.
My dad was always talking about a crazy man livin close to the woods. In the winter when he was getting wood and he was hearing vechicles in the woods he heard screaming and 2 heads flying his way. He called the police and ran to where the heads came from. The guys was partying yelling "no more noise!" he was sentenced for life.
My brother was on foot running through a trail and caught a peice of barbed wire stretched in a similar manner at his neck and at the hospital they said 1 cm more and he wouldn't have made made it home let alone to the ER. The terror on my mother's face when my brother removed his hand from his neck to show her what was was wrong I can't even explain. I cant even imagine if he was on a motorcycle!
The amount of people in the comments section trying to justify attempted murder over trespassing is insane, some of y'all out there are some psychopaths.
@@bradensorensen966It was placed on a trail. If it's a trail, it means people go on it. and I certainly don't see any clithes hanging from it, but gosh what could the reason for it existing be?
@@bradensorensen966 What other logical explanation actually makes sense for a metal wire to be placed at right about neck height for someone on a dirt bike? We can deduct from the video that the trail is used by bikers, so regardless of the area being private property or not we can assume someone wanted to do some kinda of harm to the east riding the trail. Colliding with a metal wire at a speed as fast as the guys in the video would most likely cause either full on decapitation or some form of a broken neck, spinal cord damage, severe blunt force trauma to the head after the biker is knocked off his bike, or some combination of the three. Saying that the video isn't capturing a trap is you being extremely intellectually dishonest when it is painfully obvious to the vast majority of people that that wire was placed on that trail in the hopes of causing severe damage to any bike riders that used that trail.
Reminder you are not allowed to booby trap your land or house according to federal law. And you are most certainly not allowed to do it on public property or a private forest
Actually no one has the right to tell you what you can and can't do on your land. It's the law learn the real law and not your liberal socialist garbage.
The thing is, in their fcked up mind, they are justified killing somebody because, idk, they're making too much noise with their bikes or whatever. People who think like this are of course psychopaths.
This happened to one of my best friends in highschool. He needed a trachéotomie and nearly died. He still can not use his voicebox. Sick fx out there. It was on power lines. He still owes hundreds of thousands in medical bills.
Even in Texas, it is ILLEGAL to have booby traps on your private property. So this property owner has some serious explaining to do in front of a judge.
@@DeezNuts-yg8zy well if it was on my property and i wasnt using that private road that day what harm could it possibly do to putup my clothes...no one would illegally come on to private property right. So no harm in doing what i want...but yes if it wasnt private property its evil still it was a grim joke. So glad theres ppl with sense of humors on here.
@@MasterDonut2k37jeez man. Is this the type of attitude you've got towards "trespassers"? How about putting up a sign instead so at least they know where the hell they are. Some properties are connected to government land via dirt roads and can be easily mistaken. No need to get all Chainsaw Massacre on these guys.
The plot twist may be that it’s not the property owner putting up the lines. If this is privately managed land, the forest owner probably gets some degree of funding from local ATV/bike/SxS riding groups and local campgrounds to maintain the trails. Often times, it’s upset neighbors who sneak down the trails to put up these cables, whether due to engine noise at later hours than they deem acceptable or from drunk riders littering on roads and trails. If the property owner isn’t able to survey their trails daily, they may very well not be aware that someone is trespassing on their land and putting their guests in harm’s way.
A woman from my home town when she was a little girl maybe 5-6 years old was riding on the back of a snow machine and her dad was decapitated by one of these, she had to find her way home in the winter by herself... sickening, I can’t imagine what that poor child felt
For anybody saying, the booby traps are legal you are wrong. Booby traps for humans are illegal, no matter the circumstances. This is because a booby trap cannot tell between friend and foe however, you can have a manned turret
Some people in the comments really defending a trap made to kill humans by calling it a "blocked path" or saying if its in private property then its the bikers fault. Let that sink in.
Whats really crazy is u thinking kids should be allowed to ride dirt bikes on someones private land that they worked their ass off for If this was the case, nothing wrong here
My neighbors made a cable fence, it was too high. Their son came home for a visit and he didn't know it was installed. He ran his bike threw it like he always did but was unaware that this new cable was installed. They decapitated their own son by mistake. He was on military leave and wanted to surprise them. 😢 It makes me sad to know he had so much life left in front of him.
That is very sad ro hear but honestly the karma they deserved. It could have been someone else's son. God, might could have been someone's father too (my father did that in his mid thirties until he felt that his body was aging faster than his soul) and I know I would have been destroyed if he would have been a victim to this kind of trap. I hope your neighbours never installed one after knowing the pain
A phyco lady did that on some of our local mountain bike trails. She had a variety of different traps set on the trails. She kept doing it so cameras were put up and she got caught. She said she was just trying to slow people down. That is an extremely stupid and nasty thing to do. She had three charges against her but plead guilty to “mischief rendering property dangerous “. She got 3 years probation and 150 community service hours.
People in america are so fixated on trespassing that its insane. Its like you're trying to make your own country on that land. To me personally trespassing is when you are on someones yard or inside someones house
Bike traps are absolutely insane. Some people really are just sadistic idiots. What’s the point? They’re illegal too. There are also tons of different kinds. The cable at head or neck level being the most common but they also put them at handlebar or mid-wheel level in order to make the bike go crazy and minimum severely injure the rider. This is also done with fishing line to make it less visible. Another very common trap is where they’ll put a board on the ground and either put tons of small nails and/or screws to pop the bikes tired or cause the rider to fall, or, the more dangerous version, ginormous spikes or roofing nails that can kill someone. Some people are even crazy enough to do some home alone type crap and make a gun system but those are alot more rare, probably because it’s easier to trace and louder and harder to do. Then there are the people that’ll just shoot. Please check the trail you’re riding before you ride. It’s sad but it’s a real, common and horrific issue that takes hundreds of life’s and almost never receive justice because the culprits are almost never caught
@@fishyplayz234He’s either an apathetic troll or he’s one of those gun freaks that starts drooling at the thought of murdering someone who steps on his lawn.
We have an old friend that lost his son this way. What a terrible terrible thing to happen. The poor boy was decapitated. So many lives changed that day. The boys with him will never be the same. They were around 15. The landowner was tired of the kids cutting through his woods on their way to the sand pits. He's in jail now. So relieved this was seen before anything tragic happened.
This is absolutely horrifying and dangerous, people who do this need serious consequences. Booby traps are illegal and can cause serious harm or even death.
Can I get a participation award too for not crashing into any stationary objects while driving to work today or do I need to trespass under a clothes hanger too?
My friend had this happen to him twice thankfully he wasn't going too fast the first time so it just gave him a real bad cut. His mom ended up making him a thick leather neckband after the first altercation and when the second one happened, the only reason he had his head was because of that neckband
Cable at neck height - attempted murder Cable 1ft off the ground and a no trespassing sign - a fence protecting private property. Same amount of effort, highly different legal outcomes
It's gonna be some 50-70 white male that's outdoorsy. Likely poacher type. Probably has a beer gut, shitty pick-up truck, and is retired. List these people that live within 3 miles. He's on that list.
As someone who has to deal with assholes like this on dirt bikes especially. I have many signs up, gates , they just cut the locks of my gates, property is completely fenced in, tear up my property, theft, vandalism. leave garbage everywhere. I should be installing horizontal radio antennas this year 5ft off the ground, snare wire works excellent for radio reception. Now if it is public land that’s a different story, report it to the warden/forest service. Edit (not actually going to use wire so calm down)
Whoever put the obstacle across the road should be charged with attempted murder. It’s very serious and intentional what the person has done . Dispicable death trap ! Wow

@@Jaylin7878gThe only reason someone would have a wire connected between two trees in the middle of a dirt road is to harm unsuspecting bikers who will run through the wire. Whoever left it there knew exactly what they were doing

@@typicalwatcher1557 That empathy isn't reserved for strangers, it's reserved for those close to them prior to their sociopathy development. Sociopaths aren't born so they still develop attachments to their family members sometimes before going through traumatic incidents that can shape their brain chemicals.

Their lack of empathy for strangers is the same though.
Nah yall saying its "trespassing" yall are just idiots they would likely put it at "wheel height" to stop bikers but this is a bit diffrent you see its at **neck** height so its used for decapitation
For all y'all saying "if it's his property he's free to tie a string between two trees" it's still illegal. And form of booby trap is illegal, Sur the driver may get charged with trespassing but the other guy will get charged with murder/attempted murder

As a landowner I would install a gate at entrance and exit activated by a vending machine style card payment reader, $10 per opening of the automatic gate. Use at own risk signs and make some cash
(True story) this brings back memories of it so Ill share.. When I used to ride horses in the fountry with my friends there were alot of open fields that were split up by fences or stone walls. We would race eachother through the fields and jump the fences/ stone walls. Yeah we were going through peoples property, but we didnt do any damage, snd most didnt care because alot of people did the same. Anyway.. this one person (assume the owner of that property) put a fishing line from tree to tree right over one of the stone walls. My friend was in front, and all the sudden I see her go down for no apprent reason. Thankfully I stoped. Turns out she got necked by the fishing line... Which was strong enough that she fell off from being necked in it, and it left a prety nasty mark! Wtf is wrong with people. Keep in mine we were only kids " maybe 14"? It could have ended alot worse.
Guy in Maryland went to prison for murder in the 80s for putting one of those up on property that wasn't even his.A kid in his teens was decapitated and I believe the kid had permission to ride where he was.
I don’t think cranky old people are doing this like some of the comments say. You have to be an unhinged person that wants to murder someone to do this.
where in Maryland was that?.. i lived off the trolley trail between Baltimore and Ellicott city and supposedly that happened to someone there back in the 1980s.. heard it was a chain or cable, oww
This killed a kid that my mom went to middle school with. Some psycho put it up over a PUBLIC ACCESS ROAD because his property was nearby and he didn’t like hearing the dirt bikes. Some people are infinitely miserable.
Yea, some kid who was a year older then me used to ride his bike across peoples yards to make his trip to school faster or whatever. Some couple didn’t like it, so they set up these thin wires around their property and the kid rode right into it. He survived but has a huge scar on his neck from it.
@@wolfie773 It isn't legal to set up booby traps in many states plus this may lead to 3rd degree murder. It was the intent to stop them from going through their yard but could've led death for the kid. I agree they had every way to stop the kid from riding around their bikes in their own property, but this could've led to a death since metal wires can cut through a human with enough pressure. A fence or taking the boy to court for trespassing would've been better.
My buddy got killed like that. Someone put a small cable across the long straight away on a trail. Took his head off. Not only did he die but his family struggled so bad with his loss one brother ended up in prison and another overdosed. Mom and dad's health went down the drain. Complete devastation. Heartbreaking.
See, I'm the type of psycho who would camp nearby or come visit everyday just to get a chance to find the guy who placed that trap. Especially if it almost killed me.
I would just drop it where it is then set up game cameras to see what moron tries to put it back up. Obviously check the cameras every single time they pick up movement to make sure nobody gets hurt.
Happened to a friend in my late teens back in the early 80's. We would always cut through this parking lot near our neighborhood to get home. For whatever reason, they installed a chain across the entrance. We didn't know about it and that night he took the shortcut, only seeing the chain at the last second. He tried to duck under, but it caught him in the face, ripping him off the motorcycle. He laid there for several hours with a broken neck until someone discovered him. He did eventually recover after several months in the hospital, but now lives in chronic pain, migraine headaches 24/7. Thank God the guy in this video saw it before it was too late!
From what I have gathered, this is apparently a means of hindering tresspassers, but I do believe it would be best to substitute for a simple wooden fence. This is needlessly lethal.
My biggest fear is spending my life savings on land only to have someone tear it up with there vehicles then they get mad when I defend myself and property and I have to put someone down because they wanted to do illegal activities on someone else's land.

Me and my dad used to go shooting out in the woods by our house. There was a giant sand and dirt mound we would dump mags into when we got a new gun. We’d ride our side by side out to it, it’s super common for people to go mudding in the area and often there were new people dumping mags too. One morning we went out and found a steel cable between to trees and a teenager laying on the ground and his ATV about 20 feet ahead. Poor kid caught it in the chest and we had to drag him out of there. Turned out to be some people that lived next to the mud gates entrance that got annoyed that people went mudding out there. 14 year old boy had a massive cut across his chest and a few broken ribs over some stupid people getting annoyed.

Under Texas Law, you can use your booby-trap (“device”) to protect both land and tangible, movable property. However, you can’t set up booby-traps to protect just any property, you must be in lawful possession of it. Additionally, Texas Law allows you to protect the property of a third person if you reasonably believe that they requested your protection; you have a legal duty to protect it, or if the third party is your spouse, parent, child, resides with you, or is under your care.

A guy I went to high school with was nearly decapitated by a wire strung between two trees while snowmobiling in northern IL a few years ago. Apparently, he and others were riding through someone’s property where it happened and the property owner had enough of snowmobiler’s doing it. I understand snowmobiles can absolutely wreck turf, but it’s not justification for setting traps like that. The property owner confessed to it and received murder charges. Two lives ruined over a situation that could and should have been handled very differently.
One of my family members was nearly decapitated riding four wheelers on his own property . Property owner beside him thought it was his land and without a survey put up a single strand of barbed wire . You can imagine the rest .
@@tyler93539 Link the law stating this. I can guarantee you, no matter how well "posted" your traps are, it's illegal. If it was intended to harm people entering your property you WILL catch criminal charges for it if anyone (even illegal trespassers) are hurt by it.
That happened to me in 1976. Someone strung a 35 lbs Nylon fishing line across the trail. I thought it was just a spider web, so I just tilted my head down to catch it on the top of my helmet but Nooo! Caught my in the neck and took me off the bike. I hit the ground and coughed, and a blood bubble came out of my neck. I grabbed my neck and two fingers went into my neck. I started running to my house which was 200yrds away.

Well if it is on their property they are allowed to dig holes and you can fall trees on roads that don't get used by first responders if that is on public lands you cannot put up lines that could hurt somebody or something like that but on your own property yes you could you can put up lines like that and it's not illegal all you have to do is argue in court that you were hanging your clothes on it the best thing to do is not going to people's properties or bother other people but what's the fun in that right lol

yeah, my trail. quit tresspassin
Apparently it's not even his property anyway
Number one it's not his trail number 2 Bowie traps are still highly illegal if it can be proven that they were intended to kill. Especially if there isn't a clear barricade or property line. @@squarebodyseth5986
The same people claim you can kill in self defence even if the threat is low.
I watched someone pull a gun over amazon packages. He's stealing, not killing or threatening... like yeah, flash it. But no need to point at a thief who's not armed.
The reason these people put up traps like this is because they’ve already tried the things you mentioned and disrespectful bikers just cut their fences/damage their property and trespass anyways. Stay off land that doesn’t belong to you and you don’t have to worry about it.
That is beyond fckd up. Whoever did that needs to go to prison .
If it's on an obviously public trail especially.
If you're *trespassing*, AND you pass someone's fenceline or signs indicading such? If you get yourself clotheslined at that point, well... that is on you.
Last time I lived out in the middle of nowhere, I did like to hand my no-trespassing signs on ropes like that. Very visible. you *will* see it. But it also sends a message.

@@bradensorensen966 What other logical explanation actually makes sense for a metal wire to be placed at right about neck height for someone on a dirt bike?
We can deduct from the video that the trail is used by bikers, so regardless of the area being private property or not we can assume someone wanted to do some kinda of harm to the east riding the trail. Colliding with a metal wire at a speed as fast as the guys in the video would most likely cause either full on decapitation or some form of a broken neck, spinal cord damage, severe blunt force trauma to the head after the biker is knocked off his bike, or some combination of the three.
Saying that the video isn't capturing a trap is you being extremely intellectually dishonest when it is painfully obvious to the vast majority of people that that wire was placed on that trail in the hopes of causing severe damage to any bike riders that used that trail.
Reminder you are not allowed to booby trap your land or house according to federal law.
And you are most certainly not allowed to do it on public property or a private forest
Actually no one has the right to tell you what you can and can't do on your land. It's the law learn the real law and not your liberal socialist garbage.

@@MasterDonut2k37jeez man. Is this the type of attitude you've got towards "trespassers"? How about putting up a sign instead so at least they know where the hell they are. Some properties are connected to government land via dirt roads and can be easily mistaken. No need to get all Chainsaw Massacre on these guys.
The plot twist may be that it’s not the property owner putting up the lines. If this is privately managed land, the forest owner probably gets some degree of funding from local ATV/bike/SxS riding groups and local campgrounds to maintain the trails. Often times, it’s upset neighbors who sneak down the trails to put up these cables, whether due to engine noise at later hours than they deem acceptable or from drunk riders littering on roads and trails. If the property owner isn’t able to survey their trails daily, they may very well not be aware that someone is trespassing on their land and putting their guests in harm’s way.
A woman from my home town when she was a little girl maybe 5-6 years old was riding on the back of a snow machine and her dad was decapitated by one of these, she had to find her way home in the winter by herself... sickening, I can’t imagine what that poor child felt

Bike traps are absolutely insane. Some people really are just sadistic idiots. What’s the point? They’re illegal too. There are also tons of different kinds. The cable at head or neck level being the most common but they also put them at handlebar or mid-wheel level in order to make the bike go crazy and minimum severely injure the rider. This is also done with fishing line to make it less visible. Another very common trap is where they’ll put a board on the ground and either put tons of small nails and/or screws to pop the bikes tired or cause the rider to fall, or, the more dangerous version, ginormous spikes or roofing nails that can kill someone. Some people are even crazy enough to do some home alone type crap and make a gun system but those are alot more rare, probably because it’s easier to trace and louder and harder to do. Then there are the people that’ll just shoot. Please check the trail you’re riding before you ride. It’s sad but it’s a real, common and horrific issue that takes hundreds of life’s and almost never receive justice because the culprits are almost never caught

@@marcanthony8475 Great way of saying you do illegal booby traps. You aren't defending yourself you're intentionally trying to kill people. Let the cops handle them. Set up cameras get plates find who it is and have them charged. Lunatic.
@@marcanthony8475 literally a non issue. Have a good relationship with your neighbors. I could end people like u. One person with a bit$^ coward mindset Luke this ruins a whole community.
@@marcanthony8475 simpleton.
I found one of these a month ago and removed it. I was just walking but people ride there. I’ve met the maniac man that I believe did it. It was a thick metal cable. Would kill someone easy
Well done!. You probably saved someone’s life.😇👍🏻👍🏻
how does a wire hurt someone
@@fobrod6327speed. It can rip through skin and even remove limbs or cut the head off
@fobrod6327 wanna try going through sharp thin wire going 40mph+ neck high😂
@@Leach-ez7dqYeah, I've read some comments and I found out that a kid riding on a bike got his head chopped off from a wire, there wasn't even a warning to stop the rider. Truly a tragedy 😔
The guy who put that up should be in jail
The fk is this? Wrong turn? That's terrifying af
One of my childhood friends was essentially decapitated this way.
Some absolute monster set this up and caught him just right.
RIP Tony.
Rest in peace tony❤
RIP Tony
May he Rest In Peace ❤
I hope they caught the guy that did it =(
RIP Tony, that’s evil bro
The amount of people in the comments that know people who have been decapitated by these types of booby traps is sickening
Specific nominator tends to bring specific experiences up
It truly is terrible.
@dreamy_walker43 small info to not get reports:
Speed + Line near normal head or neck length + machine that needs to break on time - visibility of string = -neck -head
@@dreamy_walker43
Are you phucking kidding??? Drive at a considerable speed and have a cable, chain, or a rope at neck level and find out if you have a head on your shoulders!
It happened to a guy here driving an ATV and a drive-thru theatre had one up. Decapitated him.😢
i’ve seen someone literally
lose all ability to speak, it hit their throat and it absolutely destroyed him
These comments are insane and the consequences of being brought up in the USA
Speed wobble comes into play💀
Me and my dad used to go shooting out in the woods by our house. There was a giant sand and dirt mound we would dump mags into when we got a new gun. We’d ride our side by side out to it, it’s super common for people to go mudding in the area and often there were new people dumping mags too. One morning we went out and found a steel cable between to trees and a teenager laying on the ground and his ATV about 20 feet ahead. Poor kid caught it in the chest and we had to drag him out of there. Turned out to be some people that lived next to the mud gates entrance that got annoyed that people went mudding out there. 14 year old boy had a massive cut across his chest and a few broken ribs over some stupid people getting annoyed. Idk if they ever got a criminal charge but that shit could have been so much worse
Was it your land. I would say no so you just felt that you could go wherever you wanted and do want ever and then wonder why people put of fences?
@@michaels.starnes194 it wasn’t their land either. It’s State Land. Not even city property. Those people had absolutely no right doing shit like that. Also it wasn’t a fence, it was a Booby trap which is illegal.
@@WodenseyesI agree doesn’t matter if it was state land. Now if it was private property and they had signs and all that then they could put stuff down to pop tires and such but not a freaking cable that can seriously hurt somebody. That’s just idiotic!!!
@@KBent92 nah, traps used against humans are illegal in those circumstances
@@shakkabo even stuff to flatten the tires? Thats what I was saying was okay to use. Not the cable on the trees.
There's a special place in hell for people like this.
Just need someone to put him there
Same for people who go riding dirt bikes into property they aren't sure are public
Under Texas Law, you can use your booby-trap (“device”) to protect both land and tangible, movable property. However, you can’t set up booby-traps to protect just any property, you must be in lawful possession of it.
Additionally, Texas Law allows you to protect the property of a third person if you reasonably believe that they requested your protection; you have a legal duty to protect it, or if the third party is your spouse, parent, child, resides with you, or is under your care.

@bmad1386 Yeah, let's try and justify homicide...
@@Bravosierra175Yeah, let's try and justify homicide...
This is how my wife’s uncle died in Utah on a trail.
A guy I went to high school with was nearly decapitated by a wire strung between two trees while snowmobiling in northern IL a few years ago. Apparently, he and others were riding through someone’s property where it happened and the property owner had enough of snowmobiler’s doing it. I understand snowmobiles can absolutely wreck turf, but it’s not justification for setting traps like that. The property owner confessed to it and received murder charges. Two lives ruined over a situation that could and should have been handled very differently.
One of my family members was nearly decapitated riding four wheelers on his own property . Property owner beside him thought it was his land and without a survey put up a single strand of barbed wire . You can imagine the rest .
He get charged or what
@@tobyrowen7130 yes he did
Was your family member ok?
@@Bischlarbo69 he died on impact
@@huntershunts1398 I’m sorry for your loss
Booby traps even on your own property are illegal as hell , federal prison time
you have to have posted signs "private property" and "traps" then its legal
@@tyler93539 Wrong. Any form of trap on your private property is highly illegal. Have fun catching a felony.
@@storm5013 ruclips.net/user/shortsOiOQHoqXX28
@@storm5013 again its LEGAL IF you have signs posted warning about the traps
@@tyler93539 Link the law stating this. I can guarantee you, no matter how well "posted" your traps are, it's illegal. If it was intended to harm people entering your property you WILL catch criminal charges for it if anyone (even illegal trespassers) are hurt by it.
Whoever did this is a horrible person
That’s definitely attempted murder
That happened to me in 1976.
Someone strung a 35 lbs Nylon fishing line across the trail.
I thought it was just a spider web,
so I just tilted my head down to catch it on the top of my helmet but Nooo!
Caught my in the neck and took me off the bike. I hit the ground and coughed, and a blood bubble came out of my neck. I grabbed my neck and two fingers went into my neck.
I started running to my house which was 200yrds away. I started noticing I was bleeding more, so I stopped running and started walking. I tied a bandana around my neck till I got to the hospital. Got lucky and it just necked my juggler, but got my vocal chords! Dr. said I was one lucky ass guy! My voice is alttle rough, but Ill take it!!!!
well damn, that’s a story
glad you are ok
FISHING LINE????????
WOW
Wtf man they almost killed you Hope someone was arrested
This happened to me as a teenager. Luckily, the cable was low enough that it caught between the fender and handle bars. Sent me sailing like Superman. When I hit the ground, it knocked me out. Buddy rode back to get my Dad. When my Dad found the culprit, he made sure that he had terrible experience...
wha5 happened to the dude that set the trap
How do you determine who left a cable trap out did they sign it?
Im guess in ass whooping was in order
Why are you trespassing?
@@leonelmartinez2486how do you know he was trespassing?
If you ever find out who did it. Wrap that thing around the dudes neck.
People really defending the man who set a damn death trap 💀🤣
Time to put up trail cams, catch the dirty dog that did this and sue the hell out of him, prison time.
Fuck going to court, that bastard is going to the icu
If your trespassing soneone els property is your fault lol
@@xiongbreezeno it's not, traps are illegal even on private property. Well first of all the idea of putting traps for humans is kinda fucked, so I'm not surprised if people like you who think this is justified end up in jail
@@xiongbreezeI feel like u not old enough to understand this is attempted murder even if they were on his property they did nothing to harm the owner
@@xiongbreezewould also be charged with premeditated murder lol
My neighbors use to do this all the time in the woods behind our houses. Also dig holes and cover them. Put big trees and branches across the road and it wasn’t even their property!!! I wish I would of knew it was illegal but I was only a kid at the time!!! What a P.O.S to do something like that!!!
That is so fu#### up, they belong in hell.
Well if it is on their property they are allowed to dig holes and you can fall trees on roads that don't get used by first responders if that is on public lands you cannot put up lines that could hurt somebody or something like that but on your own property yes you could you can put up lines like that and it's not illegal all you have to do is argue in court that you were hanging your clothes on it the best thing to do is not going to people's properties or bother other people but what's the fun in that right lol
@@user-kd6vc7hr4gwhen the state executes a search warrant and seizes all your Booby trap materials /search engine searches and phone communications ?
And even if all that comes back clean, its very hard to make a case that you were reasonably trying to dry clothes with spiked barbed wire on a path in a place that’s extremely impractical to do so .
@@user-kd6vc7hr4gif it’s your property place a bunch of logs blocking off public access . But your naive if you think you can place a death trap and pretend it’s was Accident
I'd have made them wish they lived else where. our motto was don't get mad. get even!!!!!!!
eight years ago a homeowner in his neighborhood got five years in prison for stretching a line across one telephone pole
The dude Who set that up is a straight menace to society
No, he’s a criminal. Seriously, booby traps are HIGHLY illegal
My daughter lost a friend years ago because he and several other kids were driving their go karts on public land in the city limits at the park. Took his head clean off. She had had a premonition that he didn't need to go because something would happen.
Holy shit,,
How sad:( i hope the kids got the therapy they likely needed after that sort of event.. thats brutal.

Sorry for your loss
I personally know someone who lost their life this way. It wasn’t like this situation in the sense that it was done maliciously but he was riding a dirt bike and hit a cable similar to this and it literally took his head clean off. This is a very real and very serious risk to someone’s life to do this. You will literally be murdering someone if you do this intentionally. Be better, people.
That just makes me sick.
Some property owners needs to be surveillanced!!
In a mile radius. Often they'll set it up.
Eavesdropping on them.
That's terrible, I'm so sorry for your loss
@@8_x_9. stfu. You haven’t committed a crime until the crime happens. You also cannot be charged with the crime until evidence is provided. Property owners rights would be violated if surveillance was taken upon their property.
@@8_x_9. this makes you look like a dumbass I agree booby traps are bad but the owners will probably never get in trouble what’s the bikers defense gonna be? “Your honor we were trespassing and he tried to kill us” the home owners will definitely not be surveillanced
I shouldn’t have judged the video by its thumbnail, I thought it was someone exaggerating, but nope, that’s definitely a booby trap, and is very illegal and messed up to put there.
What is it with people? Justifying murder because of "your land"? Are you that scared of people that you rather end whomever that might step onto your property? What kind of society is that?
Sue. Contact the police to start the investigation. That is NOT okay.
I would assume it's private property and possibly punks that don't listen to "no trespassing " are the poor victims here? Correct
Booby traps are still illegal nonetheless. Even so murder/homicide/manslaughter (idk which it is in this case) is a far worse crime then trespassing
@@LabLab3029 Manslaughter? All they did was tie a wire on their property. They killed themselves.
@@thomashicks1565so, whoevee tried to commit premeditated murder by boob trapping is the victim?
@@thomashicks1565still illegal man, it is unlawful to booby trap your property you still can defend your property but not by some rambo esc booby trap.
you can tell society is in a great place when people are defending decapitating innocent people for the crime of being somewhere that an imaginary line on a map says they can't be
People paid good money to be able to claim everything inside those lines as theirs. You trespass on private property, you forfeit your right to live and that’s how it should be. Stay off other people’s stuff. It’s that simple.
@@Alexander_choi good thing the mentally disabled aren't allowed to create laws.
Edit: note that Booby traps are illegal in the US as they do not discriminate and do not have to defend their lives.
I am happy that the majority agree with this, but there are some that are alright with murdering whoever dares to step foot on their land.
@@Alexander_choi nice to know you value some dirt more than someone’s life.
@@Alexander_choi there were absolutely no signs up that would let them know it was private property.
@@CMT_Crabbles The land that I prob paid a heap of money for or the life of some random idiot who doesn’t know how to respect another’s belongings? You should have learned to not touch others stuff in kinder.
