Lorry Driver Impaled
'I'm in a spot of bother...': Is what this lorry driver rang to tell boss after being impaled by 8ft pole in freak accident A lorry driver in the uk was speared by an 8ft pole and calmly called his boss to say: 'I'm in a spot of bother.' Jason Ripley was pierced through the chest – just inches from his heart - by the metal shaft after an accident in his delivery truck in Darlington, north east England. The 39-year-old drove into a horizontal barrier, which was hidden by a bush, and as it struck the side of his vehicle, it bounced on the bonnet and smashed through the windscreen. |
