Last week, one of the hottest clips on The Blaze was video of Phoenix man George Lindell giving an epic description of a car crash. (To refresh your memory, you can read our initial story here.) That story, featuring Lindell’s animated and vibrant description, caught the attention of Glenn Beck, who said Lindell was the reincarnation of famed, deceased comedian Chris Farley. Well, Lindell is now back in another clip, proving his first viral video was no fluke.
Lindell visited the set of KSAZ-TV in Phoenix the day after the accident and reprized his role as an epic storyteller.
“I went home, I went to bed, then I got up and went to work today, and my brother called me and told me, ‘Hey, dude, you’re on Fox News,’” Lindell explained, “he said, ‘You’re on Glenn Beck!’ I was like, ‘Oh, sweet, dude!’”
He was also thrilled to find out his now-famous phrase — “Reality hits you hard, bro” — how now been turned into a t-shirt:
Lindell didn’t just react to his new celebrity status, though. He also give viewers another description of the accident, comparing it being in a “rocket ship” or an “F-22″ and even allowing cameras to roll while he reinacted it from the front seat of his van:
He even worked in some criticism of the president, saying his car was “Obamanaded” when describing the damage. You can watch it all unfold below:

You just described all 3 of the other members of my family. I’m the only one who is not ADHD, including my dog and cat. But remember, ADHD adults are usually successful. My BIL (also ADHD) works at AT&T as a programer. (or is that programmer? too early and not enough coffee….I’m just ADD)

Posted on September 21, 2011 at 3:52pmHA!!!! He made it sound like his car (van) was completely totaled during his description of the crash. The he goes out and shows the actual damage and it looks like a ding in his back bumper and door… I’m sure it felt like he got hit hard, though.

Posted on September 21, 2011 at 2:59pmJust watched the original video. Very good. Just the other day out on the street near our office and there was a huge bang and power went off, massive amount of smoke. Turns out we had a couple of guys insert a metal spike into 6600V cable. Both were stunned, one more than they other and had burns etc. I think they should get lotto tickets. http://www.odt.co.nz/news/dunedin/178523/men-burnt-after-striking-cable

And your post was directly above the comment box.
Either great minds think alike, or there really is such a thing as coincidence.
