Engineering the Wet Pants

Having worked in the Engineering field for 20+ years, I have a pretty good understanding of what it takes to design stuff like this, and I have the highest respect for those Engineers that really push the limits of functional design.

And I know I wouldn't care about the wet pants,
cause I'd be DEAD.
