I'm probably on my way to hell, but this is funny!

A family crashed while carrying a pot of paint - covering everyone in the car. They're all okay and there's not much damage (that's why I'm laughing!)

Must have been emulsional...

Luckily, none of the occupants – two adults and two children – were injured after the smash in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. In fact, they were all-white.

That happened to someone trying to race a mate of mine. Back in the mid-80's my mate was driving a GTV6. Local ned was driving a MK 2 Escort with the usual sad go-faster bits and the back seat full of shopping. And a tin of paint.

The Escort started to chase the GTV6. My mate was enjoying the game; driving the Alfa at 5/10ths the Escort was OK. At 6/10ths the body control was starting to go. At 7/10ths it was looking wildly out of control. Johnny never got to 8/10ths at the the Escort veered off the road, went through a hedge and rolled.

Johnny stopped, went back, made his way into the field and saw the driver hanging from his seatbelt upside down coated in paint.

He said it was one of the funniest things he'd ever seen.

The Escort driver wasn't so happy. But then again the town I grew up in in Fife was full of people with Escorts, Crapris and Cortinas that would do "130mph in 3rd". Being presented with the truth by someone driving a ghey Alfa was never fun for them. Especially when it involved writing off a car and a week's grocery shopping AND getting covered in paint in the process.....

At least there were only a couple of kids in the car, I can't imagine what it would be like with more than two-packed in

It's actually quite a serious story and shouldn't be glossed over.

Similar thing happened to a bloke who worked for me a couple of years ago.

He was in the works van, stopped at a queue for some traffic lights when a large van ran in to the back of him at speed.

He was knocked about a bit and shaken up, started to check himself over and noticed a liquid oozing from his head, from what he thought was a head wound.

It wasn't blood as it was the wrong colour, so he thought it was brain tissue! :0


Turned out it was a tin of Swarfega that burst all over the inside of the van smile

Looks very messy, but it'll polish out.

Heavy items catapulted in a car crash? Sounds a recipe for disaster.

I don't know, I think for this sort of story it's the white spirit

Painter and decorater had quite a nasty head on crash a few years ago outside our house. The boot had popped open and there was paint spread down the fence, gates drive, and neighbours....
