Why argue with his trolling? The killfile would be a lot more useful.

Thomas!! You mean that you have never seen a small airplane crash during a
television show? g Humonguous ball of flame extending hundreds of feet
into the air. Scary, until you realize that the airplane being shown has a
max fuel capacity of maybe 50 gallons.

Yes, in fact I've seen (on TV) cars explode three and four times. Especially
when they drive off a cliff.

That's real, isn't it? ;-)

What is neat is when they explode just after going off a cliff, in
midair without hitting anything. It must be magic. Or a Ford
featured in the faked news footage of some time ago.
