Stunt ends fatally

In Zevenaar (the Netherlands) a young man died because the shopping card he was in dragged by a car, toppled over. He apparently cracked his skull on the pavement. What the pavement thought about that, is not known.

Date of article in link is 20-06-2020. It is in dutch.

I know we have stories about other types of idiocy involving shopping carts, but I don't think we have any of people being dumb enough to be pulled behind a car in one. Thanks, Sieger!

The link is broken. It brings up the site, but not the story. Thanks anyway.
