A saw some guys try to start a Camel once at Rhinebeck. They went through the
rigamarole of pulling it through and then Hercules (we'll call him) started
flipping the prop. It wouldn't even backfire. The poor guy rocked that prop
through about 20 times or so.

When he was worn out, another fellow came up to try his luck. He rocked up on
one leg and whipped the prop down and the engine fired right up. Hercules was
ready to beat the guy to death!
