That deer/Durango encounter happened down the highway from me. Evidently, the deer jumped off the overpass you see in the background. This one made national news that night. However, it pales in comparison to the truck/boat!

The boat guy probably has a nice headache to go with his "Temporary Insanity." Love the shots of the Lamborghini Diablo. I would pay money just to stand there when the driver climbed out of the car---from the passenger door.

That is probably the Ferrari that the two Atlanta Thrasher players were in that ended up with one dead and the other one seriously injured, two days before the season opening home game. Yes, the car was in two pieces about 10 feet apart from the other half; but, the passenger, a 20 year old up-in-coming Thrasher player, died days after the accident. Sad mainly because neither one were drinking, just a dumb move on the driver to show off on a narrow road. I can't say that I haven't done that when I was young or older, but having a fast car is like having a black belt in Karate, you just have to know where and when to use it . . . Be safe all . . .

Especially so because it appears the driver is still in the pickup!

"Real TV" is another place to see human stupidity in action. My favorite is the guy and his girlfriend in their offshore race boat--they head into a left turn at what, 120?, and the boat gets a little out of shape and digs in, and they both get thrown right out of the cockpit! It's HILARIOUS. One moment they're bouncing up and down in their seats and the next moment they're both gone. The video was shot from an in-dash camera. They were both rescued and were okay, as I remember.

Oh, and yes, I have done some dumb things in my younger days that I was lucky to get away with.
