This is from a radio program, a true report of an incident in Wisconsin:
A guy buys a brand new Lincoln Navigator truck for $42,500 and
has $560 monthly payments. He and a friend go duck hunting in
winter, and of course all the lakes are frozen. These two guys go
out on the lake with their guns, a dog, and of course the new vehicle.
They drive out onto the lake ice and get ready. Now, they want
to make some kind of a natural landing area for the ducks,
something for the decoys to float on. In order to make a hole
large enough to look like something a wandering duck would fly
down and land on, it's going to take a little more effort than an
ice hole drill.
So, out of the back of the new Navigator truck comes a stick of
dynamite with a short 40-second fuse. Now, these two Rocket
Scientists do take into consideration that they want to place the
stick of dynamite on the ice at a location far from where they,
(and the new Navigator truck), are standing.
They don't want to take the risk of slipping on the ice when they
run from the burning fuse and possibly go up in smoke with the
resulting blast.
They light the 40-second fuse and throw the dynamite.
Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the
vehicle, the guns, and the dog??
Let's talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used for
RETRIEVING. (Especially retrieving things thrown by the owner.)
You guessed it, the dog takes off at a high rate of doggy speed
on the ice and captures the stick of dynamite with the burning
40-second fuse about the time it hits the ice.
The two men yell, scream, wave their arms and wonder what to
do now. The dog, cheered on, keeps coming. One of the guys
grabs the shotgun and shoots the dog. The shotgun is loaded
with #8 buckshot, hardly big enough to stop a Black Lab. The
dog stops for a moment, slightly confused, but continues on.
Another shot and this time the dog, still standing, becomes really
confused and of course terrified, thinking these two geniuses
have gone insane.
The dog takes off to find cover, under the brand new Navigator
truck. The men continue to yell as they run. The exhaust pipe on
the truck is still hot, so the dog yelps and drops the dynamite
under the truck, and takes off after his master.
Then --BOOM-- the truck is blown to bits and sinks to the
bottom of the lake in a very large hole, leaving the two idiots
standing there with this "I can't believe this happened" look on
their faces.
The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by
illegal use of explosives is not COVERED. He still had yet to
make the first of those $ a month payments!!!
