BERLIN (Reuters) - A 76-year-old German man trying to thaw out his car incinerated it instead when he decided to speed things up by putting a blow heater under the hood.
Oddly Enough
"He burned the vehicle out completely," said a spokesman for police in the western city of Hildesheim. Police said the man left the heater on next to the frozen windshield washer tank and returned indoors. Shortly afterwards he heard two explosions and returned to find the car ablaze.
He alerted fire services, who arrived in time to prevent the flames from destroying his house. Including charring of the building, total damages were estimated at 40,000 euros
($56,240).
You guys all think this is dumb and how could he do this. What I think is this man is a genius. He's living the American Dream, doing things quicker and easier for less.'m going to try this for the first time. He had obviously been doing it for years and that day just wasn't his day.
In the past I have done similar things. I had the genius idea once of shoveling the snow off of my car, so I didn't have to brush it with that thing. Snow was off in about half a second. Problem being the shovel scratched the shit out of the car. I feel this mans pain
