So... Last Saturday I was at Justin's house working on the front end of his car that he bought and brought from Nampa ID to replace the accident-damaged front end of the Buick that his grandpa wrecked and gave to him. This front end was on top of a trailer and it was in front of his garage that was built on a slight ramp. Justin was on top hammering some aluminum and I was on the side, then out of the blue the whole trailer started to slide down heading towards the side of my car which was parked exactly in front of the trailer. Like we see in the movies both he and I ran around the trailer to stop it before it hit my car. I had mixed emotions in a fraction of seconds... Emotions like... We need to stop this trailer, how can this be happening, and how funny is this? After we stopped the trailer inches way from the car we noticed that Justin who had a sledge hammer on his hand had thrown it on the ground as he ran to stop the trailer. I told him that it would have been hilarious if we had stopped the trailer from damaging the car and if the damage on the car would have been caused from the sledge hammer he threw. I'm glad I was not focused on what could have happened because it could have been bad... Well at least for the car and my pocket that is...
Here is a video of the trailer, the front end, my car and the markings that the trailer made on the pavement as it was sliding down the slope:
