Ha ha ha, Thanks Pablo.
If I'd had a camera a few weeks ago I would have had one like this. Not as dramatic but funny. I was leaving work and driving out of the underground parking garage when I noticed something wrapped around the garage door spring. I got out to see what it was and found someone's radio antenna. It was warpped up just like that mattress was. I'll bet it made a heck of a noise when it jerked it off of whoever's car it was on. "Booooing"

Thats funny! Back in 1990 when we had our family auto repair business a kid not much older then me had his car towed in. Drive shaft was ripped out huge hole in fuel tank lower a-arm was ripped right out and broke the rear spring shackle right out of the frame.

Said he hit a water melon coming home from school.

Yeah, and it was a water melon made out of concrete because I pulled chunks and chunks of it out from underneath.

I guess if you live long enough you have stories that relate to everything. My first car was a 49 Ford. It was worn out but I was 14 and driving the back roads of West Virginia. I took off on this little straight on this dirt road that bordered a pasture field. From a standing start I popped the clutch and was throwing dirt every where. and when I jamed it into 2nd gear the car I thought blew up. It felt like TNT just went off under the car, sending me up and away rolling and coming down in the pasture field luckly on my wheels after the roll. I had no idea what had just happen. After the shock and a close inspection, I had ripped out the front universal joint, poll vaulting my self off the road.
