The video for that dump truck was in some fail compilation video I found a while back. I'll see if I can find a link to the video.

*EDIT* Found the video, doesn't look like the same bridge though. Skip to 5:47 in the video for it.

:yes: I would also fall into the screaming girl category! :ugh:

I am not as bad as my brother though, I have been in a vehicle with him (He was driving and I was in the front passenger seat) and had a spider drop off the roof of the car into his lap. He ended up in the back seat, and I was doing my best to grab the wheel and keep us on the road as we coasted.

I don't recall screaming, but I think I would have been justified in this case....

About 3 weeks ago I was clipping down a back road doing about double the 60km/h speed limit with my windows open. Just as the stop sign at the T-intersection ahead comes into view I hear a soft "zzzzzzzchunk" beside my ear on the B pillar, followed very shortly after by something brushing by my cheek. Just as my brain says "start braking now", my eyes pick up the moving object that now bounces off the top of my steering wheel and lands smack dab in the middle of my crotch.

I look down to see wtf this was, just as the really pi$$ed off bee who is aproximately the size of say, a Cessna, and clearly has anger management problems from the steroids he's been taking, realizes he's still alive and starts furiously buzzing around in circles on his back trying to right himself. I quickly do a tradeoff analysis of wearing my hockey jock the next time I wear these particular loose fitting golf shorts. This mofo will NEUTER me if he gets his bearings.

And then the panic sets in!! LMAO...I can't even begin to describe the contortions I went through to watch the bee, and the stop sign, all while keeping a foot on the brake and a hand on the wheel. {I bet the guys here will be able to imagine it pretty well though}

I get stopped ok, slam it in park and jump out. Look around for the bee, and couldn't see where he'd gotten to, just as I'm about to get back in, he flies up from somewhere and buzzes off like one of those C5 transports that fly so slow they look like they're gonna crash. I swear he was just contemplating whether or not to come back for revenge!

He was taking down the color, make and plate of the guy who winged him.

I think I read on some dark, underground board that he and his friends are now looking for you.

And yes, golf shorts were mentioned. :biggrin:

My pic, these are available at a drugstore near my place. Post inspired by some of the Harbor Freight spoofs in this thread.

Yes folks, for the low, low price of just $25 + $3.25 in (extra) taxes, you too can save $25 off your gas purchases:

Not sure what marketing genius came up with this one, but I bet he's now head of the department:

As someone who's deathly allergic to bees - can you say anaphylactic allergic reaction? - I can totally relate to this story... :biggrin:

One reason why I always drive with my windows up when heading ANYWHERE north of Hwy 7!!! :rotfl:

Something very similar happened on I75 in Michigan near Saginaw a few years ago. In that case, we were headed north, just as a southbound truck's tandem dump trailer started bouncing, and caught the overpass, the impact ripped the trailer clear of the truck, flipped the trailer under the bridge and up about 30 feet in the air, and came down right in the lane next to an elderly couple in their Grand Marquis. pretty amazing impact.

I figured youns would like that pic, we have ALOT of "coal buckets" on the road around here. There are coal mines EVERYWHERE and from my backyard I can see two coal fired powerplants. Then within a 30 mile radius there are about 6 or 7 more....

One of the big things about it though is destroyed windshields, broken headlights and blackened paint.... In the winter you can pretty much guarantee the up-hill roads closed because a tractor trailer or a coal bucket is sideways... They get paid by the ton driving so they go like complete MORONS...

My son rows now with Brock University. So someone has to kick his ass out of bed and get him moving, make a coffee make after row food, (he is not hitting on all cylinders at first when he wakes up) then I stay up so I can do a morning post or two watch a show I have missed on the computer because no one is around and the computer is all mine.. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Sitting next to me at a light at lunchtime today. Some 55-year old MIWNLF (WN = would not) putting on makeup. As they say, it's not going to help, lady.

This sounds like someone old enough to wake themselves up, or be subjected to cruel and unusual wake ups until he gets the idea. My little brother was still in bed one morning after I drove all the way from Michigan to NY to visit. My mom said oh, you're here, I'll go get Jacob. And I promptly volunteered. No no Mom, have a seat, I've got this. I dove in his bed, pulled covers over his head and beat on him for a while, then flipped his mattress off the bed. I don't think he's fallen asleep anywhere near me since.
