I remember reading about a balloonist in the 80’s who was trying to circumnavigate the world.
He crossed into soviet airspace over Romania accidentally and was shot down.
But that wasn’t the best part lol… the pilots who shot him down recieved medals for “bravery in the face of extreme danger”
L O L !
Another case where a balloon was mistaken as an “UFO”. Lol
Well Garg, those pilots WERE flying Soviet aircraft. Pretty brave if you ask me.
500-Pound Man Accused Of Fast-Food Scam
-
A 500-pound man in Seminole County, Fla., was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of scamming fast-food restaurants out of large amounts of milk shakes and tacos, according to a Local 6 News report.Investigators said George Jolicoeur, 33, would visit fast-food businesses and order food. Jolicoeur would then call or visit the restaurants posing as a police officer or a firefighter and ask for a refund because there was a hair in his food, according to the report.
“He would come back and say, ‘Oh, there is something wrong with it,’” Seminole County Sheriff’s spokesman Steve Olson said. “There was a hair in my shake or there was a hair in my tacos. And, then he wants his money back.”
How stupid can these fast food employees be? I mean a 500 pound man wearing a “police uniform”…. How the hell does he get thru the door? As a firefighter i think he would break the ladder pump.

That could only happen in the states try that in the UK and they would probably charge you for the hair. ( We don’t call it rip of Briton for nothing )
Well it amused me anyway.Cheers

Would never happen in France, there are no overweight people there. All French people are very healthy, with good eating habits and regular excercise as the norm.

Probably paid him 'cause they were afraid he’d sit on them… :P

i would have given him the money. with my experance in retail i have learned to never piss off fat people, there is nothing scarier that a angry fat man.
