I exactly what happened even before I read the story.
Opened the door and leaning out of a running car that is in gear? This is not a “freak accident.”
A friend was killed after getting caught in his door at a drive-thru. He went home afterwards and they found him dead of internal bleeding.
You have to wonder if John Barleycorn played a part.
Either way — helluva way to go.
Wood Jr.
slammed into a tree
And he died hungry. That’s the worst part.
There but for the grace of God...
I guess it is to late for him to take a remedial driving class. His skills were lacking.
Another data point for manual transmission over automatic.
Sadly, a man named Wood was killed by a tree. Special Darwin category for ironies?
In his head, he was thinking of a Jumbo Jack and in the end, his head had a jumbo crack.
No wonder people keep saying that fast food is unhealthy.
Wood, tree the Irony.
“Another death caused by unhealthy eating”...
Pop! goes the Wiesel.
How do they know the guy was a freak?
Wow what a tragedy. Poor guy.
D’oh
Kinda glad we dont have a cam covering the drive thru window at the liquor store. This crap would be on every weekend. Thanks to the original constructor of the building that had forethought in that area.
During 25 years responding to medical and fire calls in a big city... I saw a lot of weird ways to die.
Fortunately, I was off the day my crew responded to a fat guy that removed a storm sewer grate after he dropped his car keys in the drain. When he reached into to get the keys he fell head first into the drain and got stuck. When my crew arrived the police were standing around with this guys butt and legs sticking out of the drain. My crew quickly pulled him out and started CPR. He was apparently still kicking when the first calls came in, but instead of helping to pull him out people called 911. So he drowned.
I went on another call where a bicyclist was hit by a truck and landed face down in the drainage ditch next to the road. Bystanders put blankets on him instead of getting his face out of the water because they were afraid to move him. So he died from drowning as well.
Of course nothing beats the two meth addicts who planned on stealing copper wire off an electrical pole. They threw the cable and hook from their pickup truck’s winch over high voltage lines that they for some reason thought were deenergized. I don’t think I need to go into great detail... think of the cat from the movie Christmas Vacation.
I could go on, but you get the picture. This Jack in the Box drive through mishap does not seem all that unusual to me.
I think this guy would qualify for the Darwin award.
