That feeds into the old crap I hear from time to time that 'Gremlins will
expolode on impact, I remember them blowing up in the 70s'. I tell people when
they tell me that that they need to clean their US bong since the 70s as memory
is shot. Use a pipe not bong, less waste. And it was not the Gremlin blowing up
it was Pintos. Most are 'uh, yea!' but a few still dont' get it. To further
pound down a point in their memory loss brain, I tell them that if they have
electricity in their trailer, and have internet, go look fro first teast case of
Ford Pinto exploding. It was Hiway 44, Agnes street near where I gre up in
Corpus Christi, Texas, and Ford was held liable for it. Three girls died when
their Pinto hit from behind by a drunk.
I was in high school and a friend of mine had a supoed up blue Pinto. Ran
over my foot one day, didn't hurt though. Later the Pinto would be joined by the
small Mustangs:
There was a rash of Pintos blowing up in Corpus Christi, and I think about
a total of somethign like 7-9 people died in seperate incidents.
Bottom line is I tell people to go do homework and they will quickly find
out it was not Gremlin, but Ford blowing up. Ironically later it would be Ford
Excursions and other SUV's rolling over with tires blowing up, Ford
Explosions!
Cops die! Still happens!
Read #1 here:
anyhows, I like Mythbusters, but I think they sould have picked on a real
fireball, the Pinto. Maybe fill it with Diet Coke and then drop in boxes of
Mentos in the sunroof!
