    What is the funniest accident you have seen?
    On the beach in Gaeta (Italy) in the 1970s, in the middle of a hot august day, heard a screech of brakes and looked up in time to see a mutt narrowly avoid being run over by a car which had braked sharply when it ran into the road.

    But then the car behind rear ended the first, and was rear ended by the one behind, and so on until about dozen cars were involved.

    A moment later, a dozen flustered drivers all jumped out, slammed their doors almost in unison, and started yelling and gesticulating at each other like something out of the Italian Job.

    Must say it was the funniest thing you ever saw.
