Watch Live: Second House Hearing on IRS Scandal

This Could be the Wildest Car-Crash Description You Ever See

Sep. 16, 2011 8:13am Jonathon M. Seidl

“I felt like Chris Farley had come back to life,” is how the local anchor described what you’re about to see.

Meet Phoenix man George Lindell. He was driving down the road minding his own business Thursday when he was rear-ended by another driver. Sounds like a fairly ordinary accident. But just wait until you hear Lindell tell you the story. Not only did he get rear-ended, but the man who rear-ended him became trapped inside his SUV after he lost control of the vehicle, rolled over, and struck a utility pole.

Now that’s a little more incredible. But you still haven’t seen or heard Lindell describe it to KSAZ-TV. Why do you need to see it? Well, let’s give you a visual taste. It starts fairly normal, but quickly picks up:

“Well I was driving down Northern Ave,” he begins, “getting ready to run into Albertson’s, and all of a sudden I was just minding my own business – BAM! Hit me hard right from the back!…”

Here’s the rest for your viewing pleasure (two versions):

  I heard of this crash yesterday on the local radio station.
  
  I can imagine if this happened in DC:
  
  “My God above it was HORRIBLE…”
  “Sparks flying everywhere….”
  “The world spinning around and around…”
  “Lightning and fire and brimstone all about…”
  “And the clouds of darkest smoke…”
  “Molten Rock spreading all over the place…”
  “Lights dancing all about…”
  “Thunder shaking the place up…”
  
  “And then came the scariest moment of all….”
  “IT emerged from the sight….”
  “OH THE HORROR…..”
  “THE INDESCRIBABLE HORROR….”
  
  He seen Nancy Pelosi without makeup.

  It’s an ad against the use of electro-shock treatments in mental wards.

  “I touched the car and a spark was like ZZZZZT… I was like ‘whup that’s real!’”
  
  I was laughing more at the people behind him, smiling and laughing and then going deadpan every time her turned around.

  Actually, he gave more detail than most news reports. I especially enjoyed the sound effects. ( I wonder how they put those in a police report? )

  I used to work testing electrical wires, I’ve seen this before, after a shock. In another factory I worked with robotic equipment, my supervisor was back-up maintenance & was working on the electronics of my machine with an assistant when I came in. The assistant let his screwdriver touch 2 different circuits, at once and was a dead ringer for this in describing it to me a few minutes later. Kind of an electrical shock-shock! They laughed and said he’d be normal by morning, but not likely to sleep for a couple of days.

How about that great question the journalist ask at about 1:30 – “What do you think is gonna happen?”

Journalism at it’s best right there folks…

  I think the journalist knew it was funny and kept trying to keep it going. It slowed down so that’s why he tried to reinvigorate the conversation with “what do you think is gonna happen?” BTW, we need to recruit this George Lindell to be our next president. He is the coolest cat on the planet.

  Amen – no profanity whatsoever throughout the whole dramatization. He didn’t even take the Lord’s name in vain. How refreshing and totally entertaining. I was a little surprised by his lack of concern for the other driver. But this was otherwise hilarious. I bet he is the life of the party! What was that thing on his head? LOLOL I wonder if he has a FB page.

If there are powerlines on or around your vehicle, DO NOT touch any metal. In most cases, stay in your vehicle. Emergency rescuers will get you out once the POWER is shut off. This guy could be an announcer at the hockey game or wresteling match. BOOM !

He’s got a gift for story-tellin’ – he should consider volunteering at a library or school to do readings for the kids.

The crash happened because of multiple vehicles trying to occupy the same space. Which can’t be down. But I do think this guy has a future in reporting.
