Default "The Eviscerator". Is this OT? Or Almost OT? Or Right On The Money?

I posted this for some fun.
And a little bit of head-shaking

This post is not intended to criticize anyone's choice or style of car.

Take a look at the way the two U-bolts are attached to the front frame member and the front axle

Two things struck me and I was compelled to share them with you.
I'm not sure why.
1. What kind if whacked-out front suspension is this? Does it even have a suspension?
2. What an unholy safety disaster this vehicle is! In so many ways.

Imagine, if you can, being confronted by this 'vehicle'.
He's doing 50, and you're just standing there.
Contact, and you go down.
As the vehicle rolls over you, those two bolts eviscerate every organ from your abdominal cavity.

e·vis·cer·ate - disembowel (a person or animal); deprive (something) of its essential content; remove the contents of (a body organ).
