Man moons railway staffers and then gets dragged by train – Ironic!

Talk about Ironic – a German man who was mooning railway staff in a departing train got his pants caught in a carriage door and ended up being dragged half naked along the platform, out of the station and then onto the tracks.

The 22 year old, a journalism student, had shoved his backside against the window of a low slung double-decker train when staff forced him off in Lauenbrueck for traveling without a ticket.

“It’s a miracle he wasn’t badly hurt,” the spokesman said on Monday. “This sort of thing can end up killing you.”

Instead, dangling by his trousers, the man got pulled along for about 200 meters, all the while managing to keep his legs away from the wheels of the train.

The ordeal ended when a passenger pulled the emergency brake. Rescues services were called in, causing rail services between Bremen and Hamburg to be suspended for over an hour, delaying 23 trains.

The man faces charges of dangerous interference in rail transport, insulting train staff and he could face a sizable compensation claim for the delays that he caused.

It looks like Karma gave him a swift kick in the seat of his pants …er almost bare behind.

Oh Oh … Stuck tongue

I had meant to post this photo during Easter, but better late than never right?

00035770

Maybe the Easter bunny was relaxing at home when he decided to like the cold glass window?

I’m from Canada, a pretty cold climate and I don’t know how many kids I went to school with tried sticking their tongues on cold metal poles in the dead of winter … that’s a lot of hurt tongues! I don’t think a tongue would stick to cold glass, but hey … it looks like the rabbits tongue is stuck, doesn’t it?

Man shoots self while showing how to handle a gun

Some people are visual and learn better when they are shown how to do something. In this case, the student was shown what not to do and I’m sure that she won’t make the same mistake that her boyfriend did!

An Alexandria man is now recovering after accidentally shooting himself. The accident happened as he was showing his girlfriend how to handle a pistol in the parking lot of a fast-food restaurant. I guess it’s lucky that he only shot himself in such a public area!

The 21 year old man told police investigators that he forgot that he’d just reloaded his gun and he squeezed the trigger as he put the gun into the drivers door panel. The bullet went through his inner left thigh.

Police said the man repeatedly told investigators he was ex-military and knows how to handle a gun, and was very embarrassed by the incident.

I suppose this is just one of the reasons why the average citizen is not allowed to have a handgun here in Canada. I’m sure it cuts down on stupid accidents among other things.
