Honorable mention -- evil eyes

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

In Idaho Falls, ID, in 1998 or 1999 a girl named Amy (I can provide a last name if the story is accepted and there are no legal problems) was getting in her car, which was at the top of her steep driveway. She suddenly realized that she needed something, so she jumped out of the car, but did not put it in park or apply the emergency brake. Upon realizing her mistake, Amy ran around to the rear of the car to stop it from rolling into the street. Of course, the car weighed a considerable amount more than Amy, and so ran her over and dragged her into the street. A doctor and his son who lived nearby lifted the car off her and she was taken to the hospital. Amy recovered, but the pressure of the car squashing her combined with the gravity of her head being downhill caused several blood vessels in her eyes to burst. This turned the whites of her eyes red for a few days, forcing her to relate her unfortunate story to anyone who was taken aback by her demonic appearance.

Definitely Toss: Too Common
other than the eye injury, nothing to distinguish it from other "supermen" who try to stop moving cars.


John said:
Neutral: Not Amusing
hard to offer constructive...

I think this qualifies at least for an honorable mention... why not hop back into the drivers' seat and set the brake instead?
