2012 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

A 22 years old daredevil found an end to his fantasy. He was sitting on a couch while beeing towed by a pick up truck. Late at night on a saturday, in Saint Benjamin, Québec he and his friends decided that it would be a great idea to surf on a snow covered road while sitting on a couch. They managed to attached the set at the back of a pick up truck. And they hit the snowy road. The couch being pulled went from one side of the road to the other, zigzaguing endlessly. Usually those country road are two ways road. Eventually, another vehicule came on the other way. The car hit the couch and killed instantly the not so potato that was on it. The emergency crew called on site transported him to the nearest hospital just to confirmed his death.
