Trying to help my two buddies(no names mentioned but you guys know who you are) load their flathead salt car on to a trailer Saturday afternoon,I get the job of steering by turning the front wheels by hand.As we move the car forward to get it straight.I guess my two "pals" didn't think to look up while pushing the car forward, in result knocking me flat on my back and are runnig me over as I am down.I just tought you guys might get as good of a laugh from this as we did.
its alot easier to make fun of said pals if we have names!!!! i guess you should feel lucky they didnt ask ya to help load a bull dozer
Pics or it didnt happen! Serious, sounds like your OK and thats all that matters!! To your buddies--Next time get video and post it on YouTube damn it..
Sure beats a 4 X 4, my girlfriend put me out of work for three months doing that, started at my foot, right up my leg and exited over my left hip. I still have scars on the side of my left knee from being ground into the pavement and flashbacks anytime she starts the truck and I'm in front or behind it.
Hell we can make a song out of this one for next christmas (in a singing voice) A felow hamber got run over by a hotrod while getting loaded to go racing that saturday Some one come up with the next verse
You were lucky, and so was the car. As a side note, a gal I know was run over at the Altamont Motorsports Park, near Tracy, Calif. It was a few years back, and the track was closing up in the evening after the races. She was there to support friends with a Late Model American race car. The car was loaded on the dual axle trailer, and the truck started to pull out of the pits. She tried to step onto the rear bumper just as truck moved she slipped and fell face first to the ground. No one saw her and they continued to drive away. Luckily(?) she did not have time to try to move as the trailer went directly over her-legs to head. The position and the fact that it was a dirt pit area, and being very thin, likely saved her from any true injury. Spent a couple of days in the hospital, with no breaks or anyhting ruptured. After that her nick name was "Speed Bump".
Sing it GranPA A HAMB'r got run over by a Hot Rod Load'n up to race on Saturday You should look both ways jus before cross'n Is what Dutched 32 would probly say He was sniffin to much high test And they begged him to go slow Still he packed up all his race gear And he hurried out the door and to the show When they found him Sunday morning At the scene of the attack He had grease marks on his forehead And incriminating tire marks on his back It's not Bonnyville without HAMB'rs Those 32's all look so swell But she's not runnin like she used to Did we forget to pack the tools, and tach and dwell? Tach and Dwell?
