KNX News Radio 1070 Los Angeles reports that a crash victim in his 20's who was not wearing a seat belt was ejected from his vehicle with such force that his body landed on top of a freeway sign. The radio report indicates that the sign is twenty feet above the freeway.

There really aren't any rules here other than the person is supposed to have died before I did, buit I reserve the right to include really strange deaths, especially if they qualify for the Darwin Awards, or as tNiven and Pournelle said in the book Oath of Feality, "Consider it evolution in action."

The guy, who was not named, apparently clipped another car, and was driving so fast that the impact made his car roll over, and the vehicle stopped with such force he was ejected through the windshield, into the air, and onto a freeway sign that a California Highway Patrol spokesperson said was "twenty to thirty feet tall." The spokesperson also said that they had never seen anything like it. Consider how significant that is, when Los Angeles County alone has an average of about 1,000 automobile accidents a day.

Interstate 5, one of the main freeways in California, had to be shut down for 3 hours to allow them to bring in a truck with a 30 foot long ladder so the man's body could be brought down from the sign.

The man was reported dead at the scene.

There are unwritten rules here. Like the rule that the departed must be somewhat famous. Or the rule about posting a picture of the recently deceased.

Actually, I bet there's a picture of the dead guy hanging off a road sign someplace. I know my buddy the firefighter has a bunch of really gross phone pix from some of the calls he responds to.

Weird, because the picture I posted shows up just fine. Same guy just a lot younger.

When I looked at it on my mobile device it showed a broken link.

And there wasn't any quotes at all.

I think we can all believe that he outlasted Weiland, though.

Farewell, Natalie. For those perpetually on the Naughty List, it looks like nobody's getting Cole in their stocking for Christmas next year.

I've been on a cruise for 15 days, largely without internet access. We did have a few cable television channels in our rooms (MSNBC was one) and I heard over and over how Natalie Cole passed away. Then I get back on land and start skimming news sites and see Lemmy died and that didn't make MSNBC? Bullsugar!
