There’s a story behind that picture and it’s pretty much what you would think it is.
Dave Anthony toasts his achievement after driving his truck on top of a Kent house he was demolishing. Anthony said “it was a hell of a way to kick off the Memorial Day weekend.”
Somehow, it’s not too surprising that alcohol was involved. The full story can be read here. I wonder how close he came to being a candidate for a Darwin Award? At the very least, he should get an “Honorable Mention” for this stunt.
It gets better with the followup story: Driving your pickup truck onto the roof of a house and getting your picture in the newspaper doesn’t make a whole lot of sense when police want to talk to you about a $2,800 set of tires purchased with a stolen credit card.
