Sledgehammer used as Indian clubs [video]

Take a sledgehammer and wrap an old sweater around it. This is your "shovelglove." Every week day morning, set a timer for 14 minutes. Use the shovelglove to perform shoveling, butter churning, and wood chopping motions until the timer goes off. Stop. Rest on weekends and holidays. Baffled? Intrigued? Charmed? Discuss here.

I won't be doing this, but it looks like a good workout.http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... w_ECLCWqew

Looks like a very good way to crack your skull open, too!

I can just imagine the conversation in the ER:

"He hit himself in the head with a sledghammer -- TWICE?????"

Makes me think how relatively safe the canonical shovelglove moves are thanks to my instinctive natural cowardice. :-)

Thanks for the link and sorry it's taken me two months to click through!
