Who knew “mooning” could be so dangerous!
A 21 year old Dutch man is recovering after a mooning incident that went horribly wrong.
The injured man and two others decided to run down a street in Utrecht, Netherlands with their pants pulled down as a joke.
At some point the man pushed his behind against a restaurant window and it broke! The broken window resulted in deep wounds in the mans derriere.
Owwww!
Police detained the three mooners after the incident, however the cafe owner has decided not to press charges after the men agreed to pay for the broken window.

An interesting police chase took place last week near the town of Dussen Amsterdam last week.
A Dutch farmer couldn’t believe his eyes as he watched a car drive through his corn fields only to be joined by two police vehicles in hot pursuit. A helicopter also joined in the chase.
The drive of the car was under the influence of cocaine as he drove wildly through the field.
The 35 year old man was eventually cornered after his vehicle careened into a neighboring orchard and crashed into a ditch.
“Shoot out two tyres… then the problem is solved,” irate farmer Ad Van Schendel told police, according to the Brabants Dagblad newspaper.
Damage to the cornfield was estimated at 7,000-8,000 euros (4,700-5,380 pounds).

At the beginning of March a van carrying illicit cargo in Amsterdam crashed and scattered it across the road. Three tonnes of hashish went up in smoke when the Dutch authorities incinerated the illicit cargo from the crashed van.
Detectives hunted for the van’s driver and passenger who fled the scene after the accident. It’s unknown if the occupants were injured. It’s estimated that the pair left behind about $23.5 million dollars worth of goods including the van. Police were busy tracing the van’s ownership but feared that it might have been stolen or leased.
The accident happened during the morning rush hour on a highway outside of the town of Avenhorn, about 30 kilometres north of Amsterdam.
The driver lost control of the vehicle as he or she was heading towards Amsterdam. Witnesses watched the van hit a barrier, flip and crash into another car before coming to a rest. Packages of hash were strewn over the area, and hundreds more were found stacked on wooden pallets in the van.
Marijuana and hash are technically illegal in the Netherlands, but under the country’s tolerance policy, police do not arrest anybody for possession of small amounts. It is sold openly in licensed shops, which, paradoxically, have no way of legally acquiring their chief product.
