I was there when it happened. Me and my girlfriend were doing the urban race and if we would have been 5 second ahead of where we were the car that ran over the fire hydrant would have hit us. It was such a strange feeling to know we came that close to death.

We ran through the water to check on the guy that hit the hydrant and we were amazed that he didnt have a mark on him aside from a small scratch on his face. He also hit a street sign that went flying through the air.

The other amazing thing is that street was packed with people walking down the sidewalk and where he wreck was the only place where their were no people walking. A lucky day indeed.

I will bet that Charlie Chaplin was looking down laughing at the chaos thinking, Hey, that would be a good Model T scene.
