A 21-year-old Kalamazoo, Mich., man, unidentified by police, in this a motorized wheelchair, found himself stuck to the front grill of this semi truck and pushed eastbound on Red Arrow Highway near Paw Paw, Mich., Wednesday, June 6, 2007, for four miles (6.4 kilometers) at about 50 mph (80 kph), authorities said. The young man, reportedly unhurt, was quoted by police as saying, 'It was quite a ride.' (AP Photo/Michigan State Police via Kalamazoo Gazette)

I'd just like to know how he got the handles through the grill, and how he got the back of his wheelchair attached to the front of a semi while crossing the street.

Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.

I thought the same. I do not believe that this was an accident.

Right there with you. I find it more likely that he'd be splattered sideways on the grill unless the kid saw the truck and turned to run directly away.

How come we don't make terrible puns about this one, but when we linked the woman with the internal decapitation, we jumped right on it?

This topic.....just lacks legs.

Guys, we shouldn't talk about this. We should cripple this thread before it starts.

Puns seem to get all up in Schild's grill, he gimped the last thread we did this in, let's try not to go down that road again or he'll cut the legs out from under us, paralyzing our ability to keep posting.

4 times the power.

I think that passes the threshold of subtlety, though. You don't want to hit them like a truck with it.

Okay, so if I have a crippled guy attached to my grill, does that mean I can park in the handicapped spots?

This could be useful.

And this F250 is the special Verne Troyer edition, complete with middle finger action! Just press a button and tell your friends to fuck themselves!

You may be onto something.

You don't think Verne Troyer giving someone the finger is hilarious? I crack up every time I watch Surreal Life and he's on it.

How about a big rig with a curvy female cripple?  The old Peterbuilt logo may be dead, but why not get something with even less class classier?

You'd also be staying true to the original concept of a rig taking this guy for a spin and not some wannabe tacking them to the front of their SUV.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!
