Heh, dude backed up pretty quick. Imagine if he had used that half an atom of a brain before combining wet and molten metal.


Story time...

So there we were unloading a segment of an ICBM from a C-141 to a tractor trailer. The segment was at the pivot point of the aircraft and the trailer. All of a sudden, the sound of metal on metal screeching was heard. I began running and so did everyone else. In hindsight, I coulda saved my breath. If there had been a bang, I wouldn't have known it. Evidently, the aircraft crew member miscalculated the remaining fuel on board. When the segment reached the pivot point, the aircraft nose raised and thus the screeching.
