Russian potholes...

I drove Bubba the Truck through a Russian pothole in Raleigh NC one morning before daylight. Driving around the motel to pick up my sidekick for a seminar at NC State.
The street guys had installed a hole in the street, good thing it wasn't quite 5 feet deep, I mean a backhoe hole, and hadn't coned it or roped if off or anything. So I'm spying the turn-into-the-lot drive and totally to my shock, WHAM! WHAM! It had to look worse than that Russian pothole video.
Day-um! I told Charlie about it when he got in. "Man, there's a hole over there as deep as Einstein and I drove right through it!" At the end of the day, I wanted to show Charlie the hole so he would know I wasn't lying. By then they had filled in the abyss with gravel and it looked real nice. He never believed me, what happened.
Next time to the the truck serviced the tire guy said, "Your right side tires were messed up something awful, but the left ones were just fine. Did you hit a curb or something?"
I just said, "I dunno." But right then, I knew for sure.Charter member of the Turd Nuggets
