Oh $hit

A Czech tractor driver died under eight tons of manure in a bizarre accident that has baffled his employers. The 34-year old man suffocated after his load of manure fell on him while he was dumping it in a field near the western Czech city of Karlovy Vary, news Web Site www.novinky.cz reported on Sunday. “It absolutely beats me how this could happen,” said Vladimir Erps, chief of the company employing the victim. “The truck is operated from the tractor cabin, using hydraulics. There was nothing for him to do under the truck, but it’s tough to blame him now that he is dead."

I bet his last words where....well you know. Here's what I believe happened. He set the hydraulics to begin dumping the load when he got the call of nature. Seeing that a few cars would occasionally drive by, he thought that if he went to the back of the truck where no one could see him he could take a dump there, since the next rest area was 90km away. After dropping his drawers he failed to realize that the hydraulics were still elevating the load of manure. It only took seconds for the load of crap to rush down the incline as he was taking his very last dump. I believe this is a candidate for the Darwin Awards. Most craptacular!
