Oh, that's funny. Reminds me of a time I was helping to dismantle a modular horse barn for transport. Each panel weighs like several sheets of plywood. Well, one guy was a little bit hyper and he self-identified as a kung-fu. At one point, maybe in a gust of wind, one of the panels fell on him and knocked him down. He wasn't hurt, but he was pretty well ironed out and needed a little help to get the panel off him.
Five minutes later he told us what really happened. The panel didn't hurt him because of his lightning-fast reflexes and kung-fu defensive pose. That is what he said.

What the hell happened in #9? Looks more like the paint striping truck got crushed from above, rather than rear ended. Many years ago we had an incident here on an interstate near my childhood home where a striping truck was involved in a horrible multi vehicle collision. The paint truck caught fire, killing at least one crew member on board, and left a massive yellow and white paint splotch across 3 of the 4 lanes.
That mess was visible on the concrete road surface for over 15 years (well after I began driving), until it got blacktopped over. I vividly remember it because I was at school when it happened, and we could see a massive column of black smoke billowing into the sky over the tree line from the wreck location, which was about 2 miles South of the school, and about 1.5 miles East of my home. Not sure why it sticks in my mind, but I still recall it almost every time I drive through that stretch of highway.

#2 - I fought the wall, and the wall won.

Re: beetle
DeleteDefine ‘original’…they made them that way until 2003 down in Mexico.
Looks like my '72 Beetle. It had a rear 4 cylinder engine. The later ones built in Brazil had engines in front and were crap.

ReplyDelete#8 - No girl is THAT pretty, dude. Keep it in your pants or pay the price. Both money and embarrassment in this case!

At 18, a female cousin was wearing short-shorts and distracted the local judge riding his motorcycle. I think he broke his collarbone on the wreck.
DeleteShe's got some badass bragging rights now.

ReplyDelete#9 - What exactly happened here? Yes, I can see they spilled yellow paint.
