  • Wine store collapse...

    Shelf collapses, sending 6,810 bottles of wine to the floor.

    Video at the end (great music choice! At least they have a sense of humor about it!).

    That guy's got pretty good reflexes, there, too...

      1. That's not "a shelf" collapsing; that's the whole gondola.

      2. I should be surprised this is from Wisconsin, and Sheboygan in particular, but I'm not. That town's all kinds of weird right now

        Damn, that employee booked it out of there!

            Can't say I blame him. A couple metric tons of liquid and sharp glass coming at you is a hell of an incentive to move.

              The company has a good sense of humour.
              If I were the owner, I might be having a bit of a sour grape over this, but at least they are not whining about it.

              The self falls down.
              They smash on the ground.

                      I think there's only one verse....given that all the bottles went down at once

                        When I'm conscious again
                        I'll cry the whole night long
                        But I'll never miss you
