 Today, they have those little coin operated compressors.
When they used to have the large tanks, they would often
have them set to 200 PSI. My brother made the mistake once
while filling a bicycle tire that you don't just hold
the button for several seconds before checking. He'd
gotten used to filling car tires. It when errrRRRAck-BANG!
He really blew the tire. I had to ride home and get
his car to pick him up. It even bent the rim.
