duffa Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Unlucky or what ????http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s23/duffa1966/2398861447-eight-tonne-boulder-fall.jpg The owner of this Yaris had a lucky escape when a huge boulder landed on it, writing it off completely. The rock, estimated at up to five-tonnes in weight, fell onto the parked Toyota from a transporter lorry as it drove past. Thankfully the car's owner, Joan Hall, was on an errand when the incident occurred. It was on her return from the local Post Office in Hayfield, Derbyshire, that a neighbour broke the news to her. Adam Chatterton, who took the picture, was near the scene when he said he “heard a massive bang.” The boulder proved so heavy, in fact, that the crane trying to remove it dropped it back onto the car at the first attempt. Speaking to the BBC, Mrs. Hall said: “I've had a lot of things happen in my life and this is actually a minor one. I'm going to write a book one of these days.” Mark Nichol i dont know .. bit of bodge some T-cut ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
