Hahaha, no, he was watering his lawn and triped. Sorry, I don't have a link, its just somthing I remember from, like, a year ago. Strangely, he too was in Florida. Miami, I think.

But there was another time I heard about a guy who fell off his roof and did a face plant onto a massive electric drill that was lying point up. Somehow he lived, just lost a eye.

Heh, didin't mean to be a tease, I'm a sucker for stories like this and they just stick in my head. But I can garruntee those stories are 100% true. I'd post a link, but I heard about them by word of mouth.


EDIT: I have another: A guy was hiking in alalska or somewhere and fell down a hill, icepick in hand. On the way down we managed to stick the entire length of the pick exept the head down his leg, inside the skin. I'm talking full size pick here, it ran his whole leg and out the bottom. 100% true.

I don't think delicious means what you think it means.

Pickle

Doh! That ain't right

I love american news. The other sample stories on there have titles such as "Man Accused Of Exposing Self Blames Wardrobe Malfunction" and "Man Caught In Strip Club Ceiling" or "'Garage-Door' Burglar Steals Food From 5 Homes". You just cant male this stuff up.

Indeed JimmyTwoHand, its just so amusing somtime what makes it onto our news.

Anyone ever hear about the dead whale in NC or somwhere being blown up by a over eager demolition crew, showering homes around the beach for about a mile with whale-chunks?
