Someone Drove their Bugatti into a Lake [video] - 11.14.2009, 07:57 PM

Did you guys see it yet?

[some profanity]



Getting it out



News Story - http://galvestondailynews.com/story....a47b18e47df13e

"Andy Lee House, 34, owner of Performance Auto Sales, told The Daily News on Wednesday that a low-flying pelican distracted him, causing him to jerk the steering wheel a bit — and he then dropped his cell phone."

I'm speechless.

I read about it on yahoo and all they had was a picture of it in the water...

But that video is priceless. I think this should be the new definition of "dumbass."

I guess he was thinking that he could wash the interior the "green" way. No harsh chemicals, synthetic materials or weird odors, just pure natural lake water!
