The man was racing the engine on the >> motorcycle and somehow, the motorcycle slipped into gear. The man, >> still holding the handlebars, was dragged through a glass patio door >> and the motorcycle dumped onto the floor inside the house. >> >> The wife, hearing the crash, ran into the dining room, and found her >> husband laying on the floor, cut and bleeding, the motorcycle laying >> next to him and the patio door shattered. The wife ran to the phone >> and summoned an ambulance. >> >> Because they lived on a fairly large hill, the wife went down the >> several flights of long steps to the street to direct the paramedics >> to her husband. >> >> After the ambulance arrived and transported the husband to the >> hospital, the wife up righted the motorcycle and pushed it outside. >> Seeing that gas had spilled on the floor, the wife obtained some papers >> towels, blotted up the gasoline, and threw the towels in the toilet. >> >> The husband was treated at the hospital and was released to come >> home. After arriving home, he looked at the shattered patio door and the >> damage done to his motorcycle. He became despondent, went into the >> bathroom, sat on the toilet and smoked a cigarette. After finishing >> the cigarette, he flipped it between his legs into the toilet bowl while >> still seated. >> >> The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard a loud explosion and her >> husband screaming. She ran into the bathroom and found her husband >> laying on the floor. His trousers had been blown away and he was >> suffering burns on the buttocks, the back of his legs and his groin. >> The wife again ran to the phone and called for an ambulance. >> >> The same ambulance crew was dispatched and the wife met them at the >> street. The paramedics loaded the husband on the stretcher and began >> carrying him to the street. While they were going down the stairs to >> the street accompanied by the wife, one of the paramedics asked the >> wife how the husband had burned himself. She told them and the >> paramedics started laughing so hard, one of them tipped the stretcher >> and dumped the husband out. He fell down the remaining steps and broke >> his ankle. >> >> >
