This actually reminds me of something that happened up north where my dad works. Idk if anyone had read but recently a 17 year old kid crashed his convertible corvette doing 120 in a 35 and rolled, was ejected and killed himself.
So my dad is in retail kitchen sales at a high end place. One of the guys that he works with , lets say his name is john, had this big $100,000 + kitchen sale and the people where really involved in picking things out and checking up etc. So about 2 weeks goes by and theres no word from these people. John calls them up and says "Hey is everything alright we havent heard from you?". The women replies with "We had a family incident, our son passed away."
So taken back John is speechless and say the typical "I'm so sorry, what happened, do you want to call off your order blah blah." The women replies saying "No it will be a good thing to try to take our mind off of it." And she tells him about the accident and how her husband had bought their son the car for his 17th birthday.
The line goes quiet and her husband gets on the phone. Now he in no way knows John personally or anything like that. He gets on the line and says "Its my fault our son is dead. I never should have put him behind the wheel of that car" and he hangs up.
My mom was actually in tears at the whole parental what if that was me thing.
My point is the kid is lucky as **** hes alive and Hulk is a moron for giving that car to his son. **** hits really close to home some times.
