The guy in this video is using a thermal lance to cut a 9-ton press head (whatever that is) off a giant hydraulic press body (whatever THAT is). I learned about the tool watching The Bank Job last night at a friend's.
Without giving too much away from a decent flick, they use one to enter the bank vault. (C'mon, you knew they break into a bank!) Basically, it's an iron tube packed with iron rods that, when lit, burns at up to 8000°F, can cut through steel...and even melt rocks.
I may not be a Tim Allen-grunting man-fool (more a Woody Allen-kibitzing man-fool, thank you), but this would definitely come in handy in those one-asshole-taking-two-parking-spaces situations.

That's pretty cool. Whatever it is.
Garrito, I disagree! You're not obnoxious like Tim Allen but you're still pretty handy with the man-chores. My smoke alarm needs batteries by the way.
OMG, maybe I am more like the goyim Allen. It would certainly explain me taking up golf. I have to sit down. I think I need some scotch. Aaaaaaaah!
