Beware of falling Cujos in Poland! Saint Bernard dogs falling from the sky! Pedestrians crushed and beaten into the pavement by the hurtling hounds of Hell!
WARSAW (Reuters) – A man was bruised but alive on Wednesday after a Saint Bernard dog thrown out a two-story window landed on him as he was walking down the street in the southern-Polish city of Sosnowiec.
The 50-kg (110-pound) dog was pushed out of the window by its drunken owner on Monday, police said.
"The dog had a soft landing because it fell on a man," said police spokesman Grzegorz Wierzbicki. "The dog escaped with just a few scratches."
"The man was also more in a psychological state of shock than physically hurt," Wierzbicki added.
The one-year-old dog, named Oskar, was placed in an animal shelter while police investigate its owners for animal abuse.
Oh sure, blame the drunk guy. We here at Blue Crab Boulevard know the Real Truth™ – it's another manifestation of the animal uprising! The dastardly demon dog wasn't pushed, Oskar jumped!
Well, technically, this is an “animal downfalling.”
Excellent point. That got me laughing!
Now if we can get it to rain cats too maybe we can take the edge off of this heatwave!
I dunno. If the cat matches the dog in scale it would be a puma. This would not be a fun rain to take a walk in!
Wasn’t this how Steven King got hurt a few years back – a dog took control of a vehicle & ran him down because of “Cujo”?
Maybe Oskar’s owner was just trying to make room for the python he’d just bought online from some dingbat in Germany.
Could be! I hadn’t made that connection! I think you’re right about King, Tom. The dog was after him!
