Wearing a homemade metal mask that protects you from flying sparks is one thing, using a plastic bag wrapped around your head, nearly suffocating you, is another. We've rounded up ten more bizarre safety FAILS for your viewing enjoyment. Continue reading to see them all.If you're not a professional window cleaner with proper equipment, don't do what this guy is attempting: folding his window outwards and then proceeding to stand on it, in hopes an accident does not occur.We've heard of two or maybe even three people riding on a large motorcycle, but six people is just absurd. Even if they don't get into any trouble, just by simply braking too hard could be dangerous for the people riding in the back.In case of fire, break open and eat banana just doesn't sound as safe as a real extinguisher. One alternative use for this would be for those on a diet to lock up their refrigerator and then place the key inside one of these break to open contraptions.If your goal is to get into a crash, this would probably be one of the dumbest ways to do it. Rather than rent a truck or have the hardware store deliver these panels, this person decided to hang them over the entire length of this car.Now if there's a fire, and you're left without the key, putting it out will definitely be a huge problem. There's really no need to lock up a fire extinguisher unless you live in an area where the theft of them is commonplace, but if that's the case, fires should be the least of your worries.Smoking while pumping gas is just a movie scene waiting to happen, one in which you probably won't make it out alive. Plus, it's highly doubtful that the cigarette this guy is smoking is of the electronic variety.Before you start grinding anything, make sure that any flammable tanks are placed away from the direction of flying sparks, or else you may end up an internet star, but not in a good way.So, you're on a business trip and don't have the proper AC converters and only have a few tools laying around. Should that be the case, don't follow in the footsteps of this person who decided to make their own rather than buy one.Before ragging on this slide too much, we do have to say that if the owners are planning to build a miniature pool, all will be forgiven. Otherwise, sliding directly into a mud pit doesn't sound like the most fun of activities, or so some adults may think.Who are you going to call in case of an emergency? Well, if you're in this building, it definitely won't be anyone that can be reached by phone, as it was removed (or stolen).
Liu Bolin, born in 1973, is an from China's Shandong. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Shandong College of Arts in 1995 and his Master of Fine Arts from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing in 2001. His work has been exhibited in museums around the world. Also known as "The Invisible Man", Liu Bolin's most popular works are from his "Hiding in the City" series; photographic works that began as performance art in 2005. Continue reading for more.Liu belongs to the generation that came of age in the early 1990s, when China emerged from the rubble of the Cultural Revolution and was beginning to enjoy rapid economic growth and relative political stability.Since his first solo shows in Beijing in 1998, Liu Bolin's work has received international recognition. Among other international venues, his distinctive photographs and sculptures have been shown at the major contemporary photography festival Les Rencontres d'Arles and he had solo shows at Dashanzi Art Zone in Beijing (2007), Galerie Bertin-Toublanc in Paris (2007), Eli Klein Fine Art in New York (2008), Boxart Gallery in Verona (2008), Forma Foundation for Photography in Milan (2010).To celebrate US President Obama's visit to China, he made an effigy of Obama in his honor. He now lives and works in Beijing, China. Liu Bolin is represented by Eli Klein Fine Art in New York, NY. In June 2011, Liu Bolin created his Hiding in New York series, in which he incorporated iconic New York sites into his work.Liu Bolin was moved to create his "Hiding in the City" series after the Chinese government destroyed Beijing artist village Suo Jia Cun in November 2005. At the time of this destruction, Liu Bolin had been working in Suo Jia Cun, which had been previously named Asia's largest congregation of artists. Prompted by his emotional response to the demolition of this site, Liu decided to use his art as a means of silent protest, calling attention to the lack of protection Chinese artists had received from their own government.The "Hiding in the City" series has inspired similar subsequent series by Liu Bolin. In particular, "Shadow" draws on the same concept of the helplessness of the individual; however, instead of taking the individual in the face of society as its focal point, "Shadow" explores the relationship of the individual to its natural environment. Rather than painting himself into the background of various man-made structures, as he did in "Hiding in the City", here Liu lay on surfaces during periods of rain, keeping the space directly below his body dry. The flat human figure created by his presence always quickly disappeared when Liu moved away, demonstrating the extent to which humans are helpless before their environment.
