      they were considering other possibilities. You know, giants picking up cars and ramming them into houses is a rising issue.

    Kudos to whoever built that overhang… they obviously did not skimp on nails. I’m pretty sure the one on my house wouldn’t hold up much more than a fat squirrel.

          I have to admit, it’s actually funnier this way. I think I prefer not to know, which allows me to imagine the car experiencing a video game glitch that put it there.

        He must have driven at a very high speed across several lawns is my best guess and achieved some height that way. Idk. It’s crazy.

    was he trying to kill himself? he may got lucky going airborne, as it made it lose momentum due to conservation of energy and stuff

    The article doesn’t mention alcohol being a factor, but I wonder if it was. Because otherwise, this seems like a poorly-thought out suicide attempt.
