Default Bubba gets a pool, caught on camera!

Here's what I came upon during a trip to town today. Had the digicam in the seat and had to snap a pic. I knew the forum would enjoy.

Sorry about the quality. I was in my dads truck which is a 5-spd, the roads are really bumpy and I was getting ready to make evasive manuvers if Bubbas superhuman strength failed him. If you can't make it out that's an arm out both windows holding the thing on the top of the car. :crazy:
I didn't get an invite to the pool party though :(

Think that's funny, we had some idiot's kill one of their children by making her ride on top of a mattress on top of their car/van and it blew off going down the road. I guess it is not funny but I think you get my point that some people are idiots.

Fevre;

That is really terrible :eek:
I was going to add a similar situation, though without death. A friends
wife was behind a car with a mattress on it. The mattress blew off and
landed on her hood and windshield. She couldn't see anything and had to
slow down and get off the road!

I worked a wreck where a man had three little kids one the back of a ranger in the rain, passing people at a high rate of speed on a two lane road. He didn't make that last turn and met a tree, causing the girls to go airborne. Killed one on impact and put one in critical conditon. Some people truly are idots..

I once saw a car lose a 3x6 slab of marble countertop off the top as they made a left turn. I had to stop to ask why it wasn't at least tied on. The driver said it was so heavy they thought it would just stay put. :rolleyes:

some of these are really funny but some just make you sick. don't these people know they're supposed to take themselves out of the gene pool before their stupid antics kill/hurt someone else?
