NUT REACTION

This story might serve as a warning to all litter bugs out there. An Italian woman was scoffing hazelnuts on a bus, when she came across a rotten one and promptly threw it out of a window. The driver of the car behind, unsure what it was, swerved out of the way. This caused another car to swerve, which in turn forced a five-ton truck to smash into a petrol station. The petrol station went up in flames and exploded everywhere. In all, 105 people were injured, 30 cars were written off and five shops and the petrol station were destroyed. An official, commenting on the incident, said "Thank God it wasn't a Brazil nut or the whole city might have gone up in flames!"
