Hey, Boys! Want to have some fun? Maybe learn how to land an airplane in an emergency? Or fight off an alligator? Escape from being tied up? How about taking a ride on one of America’s scariest roller coasters? Learn how to make fake blood or turn a real bone into a pretzel. What if you could find out how to identify some of the world’s most horrifying creatures? Or learn the secret of making a blockbuster movie?

And once you’ve found the treasure, find out just how much it would cost you to buy one of the world’s most expensive cars. You’ll find all this–and much more–over 250 pages of the biggest, baddest, and best information on just about everything.
