An American must consider himself lucky to still be alive, after narrowly escaping a mad saw that crashed into the store he had just entered.
Shane Reimche came close to death on Thursday when, on his way to a liquor store in Eugene, Oregon, a giant circular saw crashed into the store’s window, requiring the strength of three men to remove it. withdraw.
“When I put my hand on the door, I heard a big noise and people shouting on the corner of the street,” the survivor told local channel Kezi 9, specifying that he had been time to take refuge behind the counter.
The blade, approximately 1 m in diameter, left a construction site, hurtling down a parking lot at full speed before landing in the front of the commercial establishment, which was severely shaken by the force of the impact.
“At the moment when a cloud of smoke appears, I see a man fall into the ditch and a blade of 4 feet (about 1.2 m) rush towards me,” continued Mr. Reimche, admitting that he was still trembling at the sight of what happened, according to local media.
