Force equals mass times acceleration. Many tragedies could have been prevented if the people involved remembered this simple secondary school equation. This is one of them.

A summer camp building a zipline for their campers accidentally creates a Nothing But Trouble-esque bonestripping machine. Now they need to fix it, but they don't have a lot of money left over. Lives are hanging/zipping on the unqualified crowdfunded engineering advice of the Something Awful forums.
