Notice the innovative two axle design, bright colors, and handy re-torqueable end nuts. Manufactured to exacting Eastern Bloc industrial specifications, these cams are made from only the finest pure high carbon factory steel that will last a lifetime, if stored indoors. Guaranteed to attempt to arrest at least one fall, complimentary replacement cams free to next of kin if unit fails.

Is this an aprils fools joke? lol

Anyone looking to buy such cams,should think otherwise.

Protection for your life is well worth the few extra dollars and research.
I would recommend not cheaping out on something that your life depends on.

That light blue is probably the same paint they use on their aircraft interiors. :)
