Czech man dies in work-related accident; investigation under way

PRAGUE, Czech Republic - A Czech tractor driver died under eight tons of manure in a bizarre accident that has baffled his employers, local media reported.

The 34-year old man, identified only as Martin T., suffocated after the load fell on him while he was dumping it in a field near the western Czech city of Karlovy Vary, news Web Site www.novinky.cz reported on Sunday. “It absolutely beats me how this could happen,” said Vladimir Erps, chief of the company employing the victim.

Oh, well, no matter. It's still a crappy way to die.

One of the constants of life, along with death and taxes, is that there's always going to be more s**t to deal with.

That was pile of Bar-bra Streisand reaching all the way to Czechia. It would have done much better if it happened in Hollywierd. Oh well! Maybe Bush's fault, hope MSM picks it up.

I do recall a story about some guy in India or somewhere who had a very badly constipated elephant and he used a concoction of castor oil and an bunch of other stuff to unplug the elephant. When the elephat releived the problem, it landed on the guy who was knocked down and out and autopsy revealed he had died of suffocation.I think it was one of those Darwin canidates for the Darwin awards.
