Alec Baldwin blamed a hulking garbage truck that was the “size of a whale” for causing him to smash his wife’s Range Rover into a “big, fat tree” in the Hamptons Monday afternoon.

Baldwin, 67, and his younger brother Stephen Baldwin were in a car crash after smacking right into a tree on the side of Montauk Highway in East Hampton.

The brothers, who were born and raised an hour outside the suburban Long Island paradise, were enjoying a cruise in Hilaria Baldwin’s white Range Rover when they careened off course.

The elder Baldwin, though, blamed the fiasco on a garbage truck that was the “size of a whale,” that he said cut him off in a video posted on Instagram.

Right. I suppose Baldwin will now track down and sue the real guilty party. And that’s the person planted that tree there.

Typical of this egotistical, self-important idiot to blame everyone but himself: “The gun did it!”

“Those garbage trucks are so nimble. They cut me off all the time. I never have a chance to dodge them they are so fast.”

My thoughts as well. Strange excuse.

You know, the second time you read this story, Alec and the garbage truck become good friends.

Rich people create a lot of garbage and someone has to deal with it.

So I assume it happened in broad daylight? Around here, garbage trucks don’t run after dark or before dawn.

I’ve heard that sometimes people have accidents when performing certain oral acts while driving.

Does Baldwin mean that The Hamptonites create so much more garbage and carbon then the rest of the peons?

I see only normal size garbage trucks in our area. Of course, we don't have hotels that pretend to be private mansions or private planes either.

I have no problem with wealth, especially created wealth and jobs. I have a problem with the sanctimonious blabbermouths like Baldwin, DiCaprio, and the rest of the gliterati whose actions speak much, much louder than their words, and not in the good way.

Whiskey bottles and brand new cars
Oak tree, you're in my way
There's too much coke and too much smoke
Look what's going on inside you

Ooh, that smell
Can't you smell that smell?
Ooh, that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
