Man, if the airbag deploys, she's gonna be hamburger!

1. Shouldn't have used fiberglass filler, and 2. State on the label WHY you shouldn't remove the cover.

Knowing me I'd ignore them both and accidentally drink something else...

But... What do you do if your drunk then???

Wow, cynical, menacing, and impractical all in one!

It deters sending real alarms, too!

"And thanks to this genius idea, policemen and firemen were never bothered again. Also, the whole city burned to the ground".

Never report a fire folks just let it burn ....

So someone, or more people took the time, the thought and effort to make the idea into a reality and even install it without stopping for a second to think how horribly wrong the whole thing is?

Wow......so basically someone is sacrificing themselves?

What a brilliant idea said no one ever.

What if there is actually a fire

The smile of "I'm going to burn to death"...

This idea must have come from the drunk in the Uber. I wonder how many people actually did this?

Key ?!? What key? I thought that YOU had the key! What? It's in MY office desk? You mean the NEW desk, or the OLD one? The old one is in Schandler's office now. No, it got moved. No, I mean "MOVED" moved -- y'know, to the OTHER location, the new place.

So a sacrifice is required if you report a fire

My understanding of this is that the boxes were located outside the buildings, not inside.

Which brain-trust designed this torture device for the public?

Our schools had some kind of ink that sprayed all over when the alarm was pulled!

And if by chance the firemen don't get there in time...thank you for your sacrifice.

Like most problems, this can be solved with A-10 Warthog Fighter Jet Aircraft.

You need to be a saint, nay a martyr to save lives.

well I hope that it was located outside the burning building or she wont have that manic smile for long

Also no one will want to pull the alarm :D

NOPE!

we should do this with phones when you call the police! it can send a little needle into your cheek that paralyses you until a police man/woman/person comes!

And ensuring the death by burning of the person who sounded the alarm of a real fire! What a winner!

scary!!!

They had a lot of other stupid af ideas back then

with a tiny hand it´s possible to use it above without the dangerious hole #boccadelaverita

so if there's a real fire you could burn to death for pulling the alarm???

WOW! Sp you happen to notice the building is on fire, you pull the alarm, and are now trapped in said burning building.Gee, wha could go wrong?!

This has to be a joke. I'd run away from this contraption sooner than from the fire.

Also deterring the sending of real alarms.

Is it meant to be a deterrence to reporting a fire? What if it is raining?

Meanwhile, woman burns alive in 4-alarm fire bc she was attached to the signal box

Not a bad idea.

While waiting you die of smoke inhalation.

So if the fire is close to the alarm, you're toast!

Sorry, but I like this! Stupid dingbats creating false alarms have gotten people killed.

Oh wow, so you try save everyone from dying but burn yourself. What a hero

Not to mention trapping the person in a building that's on fire.

What if she's next to the burning building?

Can you not just reach to the side and pull it?

This was done to prevent the multitude of false alarms in large cities like NYC.

Not actually in the building. In lot of American cities you had fire alarm boxes fixed centrally out on the street. I guess this invention was to reduce pranksters.

they are going to sacrifice themselves for everyone

That will just encourage people to run away from the fire without hitting the alarm

And for real alarms?

Wouldn't this also prevent people from reporting fires?

what if that signal box in the burning house?
