    I know I’m not heartless yet because I am still traumatized by the brick in the window video…

      I’ll probably regret asking, but I’m out of the loop and insatiably curious.

      Brick in the window video?

        If it’s what I’m thinking of, camera footage of a vehicle interior.

        Driving down the highway, going under an overpass when a brick gets tossed by some kids and goes through the window.

        Passenger hit, husband is driving and screams.

        You know that scream they mention in The Princess Bride? That “only someone experiencing ultimate suffering” can make?

        If you know, you know.

          It’s not an overpass. A loose brick falls off a truck going in the opposite direction, bounces off the pavement once, then goes through the windshield.

          Edit: oh hurray, there’s two different brick videos.

            Well, I know what other video I’m never watching.

            And people wonder why I don’t like being around any vehicle that carries things…

          I’ve never seen that video but I can hear that scream from the husband. That’s some fucked up shit.

          Oh no. I remember that video now. I didn’t need to remember that video. Why did I have to ask?!

        They’re probably referencing the video where a woman was killed after a brick flew through the windshield. I haven’t watched it, but it is on YouTube and I’ve heard that the husband’s cries are not so nice.

        I don’t remember if it was kids throwing bricks off of a bridge or if it was something else.

        To sanitize the traumatic video as much as possible: A man is driving under an overpass and a brick is dropped through the passenger side window instantly killing his wife. He reacts in horror.
