Watch out for falling trailers
A man and his friend were tearing down an old trailer. They first removed all of the interior walls, apparently including the load bearing walls. They neglected to consider that this alone might cause the roof to collapse. They also neglected to clear the roof of the roughly 18 inches of snow and ice that had just fallen. I know I'm not a rocket surgeon or anything, but I can just hear, "Trust me, hold my beer," being uttered by a very stupid man moments before disaster strikes. Which it did. The roof collapsed, shifting the whole structure backwards, and killing one of the guys who were demolishing it. Thanks for removing yourself from the gene pill, me. Fine.
