    I think that is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Well, maybe not the dumbest, but that is pretty stupid.

    Wow. Some people just have to much money and to little brains.

    Your yellow bananazilla hammock would look right at home in that stand.

    I think a little sand and that stand and planes would be using the bananazilla hammock as a landing beacon

    If i can buy them I would not even use them. Coconut palm have a nasty habit of of discarding heavy ripe/old coconuts as well as dead coconut fronds anytime of the day. Hanging a hammock and sleeping on it under a coconut palm is like playing a russian roullete! As to the plastic palm tree, it is a bit pretentious and cost a lot of $$$$.

    Too little brains?! If he sells just one of those, he'll be able to hike for months! Sounds like a plan for me. Anybody know any suckers who need some fake palm trees? I'll even throw in a DIY hammock for free!
