FAVE: Burglar's Prothetic Leg Falls Off During Robbery

I haven't posted anything in a while, mainly because I wasn't seeing anything very inspiring. But this story was on cnn today "Police: ATM thief's fake leg falls off in escape bid"
Apparently the guy was trying to steal an ATM machine by yanking it from a store (yeup, it wasn't even outside) with a chain tied to his pickup. So right away we know he's smart (cause who's gonna notice that?). But unfortunately there was one unforseen occurance- his prothetic leg fell off as he tried to run away from the cops. Ooops.

My grandparents both had fake prothetic legs (one each, thankyouverymuch) and I can't imagine either of them running with them, much less from the cops. I wonder if the cops laughed when they saw the guy's leg fall off, or if they were mortified. Ha, funny to think about.

Hmm, could this one day be a potential entry into the Darwin Awards? Or America's Funniest Home Videos?
