Probably the wrong time to ask this - but these flags on cars
why are(were) they burned + shredded at one end ?

Cloth + going at fast speeds = bad
England + portugal = lighter.

Lots of cars everywhere with torn England flags - ie its trendy to rip/burn/shred the trailing ends.
But why ?
cant say ive been exposed to this new trend of burnt car flag decoration. Will look out for it on the M1 later.

nah i think he's right skii, the win frays it at one end, but i dunno why they've been burned![]()
All the enlgand flags have dissapered today. I just assumed some were frayed because people were using their worldcup ones from a couple of years back.
It's definately cos of the wind at speed... ours frayed on one journey... OOPS just admitted something there... um... errr... it was only on for one day!!!! As an experiment!! Honest!!!!(It's TROOO!)

I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.
Ah fair enough
comes from being made in china I suppose![]()
It is definitely due to the way they flap in the wind. The actually speed of the cars is not so much the problem but the flags whip back and forth in the wind (just like a whip crack) causing the end of the flag to move very fast.
Was i right then?![]()
looks like it m8Originally Posted by Skii
