This Week in Weird: Man Uses Toe to Dial 911
Monday May 5, 2008
Here's a good reason to clip your toenails:
A man in Mary Esther, Fla., at the DRS Technologies building, got his arms stuck in machinery that resembled an elevator and he saved himself by dialing 911 with his big toe.
Police pried him free and he was airlifted to a Pensacola hospital.
With minor miracles like this in mind, let's look at the past week's best weird news stories.
