Three People Sucked Into Cesspool
 
Oh it just keeps getting creepier and creepier..

Man, Son, Neighbor Sucked Into N.Y. Cesspool
Monday, April 24, 2006

HUNTINGTON, N.Y. — A 71-year-old man who went outside in the rain to pick up the Sunday newspaper plunged into a cesspool in his front yard, and his son and neighbor were sucked in when they tried to rescue him.

Firefighters said they helped pull out the victims — covered in raw sewage but not badly hurt.

Andrew Palladino said the soggy ground, which had been soaked by two days of rain, gave way outside his Long Island home.

"I walked across the lawn, and all of a sudden I disappeared," he told cable television station News 12 Long Island.

He yelled for his wife, Louise, to help him, and she threw a rope and called their son, Dan, who lives with them.

"Oh, my God," the wife said. "A little more, he's sinking. He's a goner!"

The son said the scene "was like a horror picture."

A neighbor who heard the commotion ran over to help — but the ground gave way again, swallowing him and the son. The neighbor crawled out while passers-by tried to hold onto the others until the Huntington Fire Department showed up.

Firefighters secured the ground, lassoed Palladino and his son and dragged them out.

It's not the first time a cesspool — a pit that collects waste from toilets and sinks — has swallowed someone in the area.

In 2001, a Huntington man practicing archery in the backyard with his two children died when his cesspool caved in and consumed him.

And in 1998, a Huntington Station man was rescued after he fell 65 feet into one.

WHAT THE FUCK????

This kind of shit makes me leery of ever living in a house. I'll never know when the fuck my front lawn is gonna get me!

If it wasn't so sad it would make a great B-movie. Along the lines of 'Attack of The Killer Tomatoes'.

'Revenge of The Killer Shit', coming to a front lawn near you!!!


Wheeee = not so much

Holy friggin' feces...yuck! I'm so glad we don't do the cesspool thing out here *shudders and is happy for her sewage system*

I saw the headline on the homepage and I just burst out laughing...

Obviously, after reading the distressing details, I am feeling in a suitably sombre mood. And very sad for the folks killed in the Huntington incident in 2001.

Thoroughly glad that these latest peeps weren't badly hurt.

But...

Come on...

Sewage...

:D

Eh?
