I doubt that photo was really taken at the north pole.

Not sure if it's the lack of ice or the presence of land but I too have just a tiny bit of skepticism.

Thank climate change, guys.

I'm just wondering how a car crashed into a pole sideways.

Understeer at high speed on dirt.

[–] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

Given that Crown Vic is bent like it is, definitely high speed to impact hard enough after sliding sideways across road/soil.

Right next to a huge pole*.

Probably a high voltage power line, usually well off the road. So this guy had to try extra hard to reach it, my guess running from the cops.

Haha, dammit, you made me snort out loud... Now people are looking at me.

Take my upvote

This being the first thing I see this morning is great. I've never laughed so hard so early in the morning.

I did some quick maths and assuming a desk-top globe of 12 inches, and guessing that the spokes are a quarter of an inch (which is probably too small), then the diameter of a life-sized spoke would be at least 82 miles (132.5 km) wide.

Ah yes, the old tesla "self driving" park job.
