In May 2021, police were called to investigate a report of something strange seen within this giant dinosaur sculpture in a town near Barcelona in Spain [Image from Getty].

Stegosaurus.webp


It’s a painted plastic and papier-mâché stegosaurus that had been erected as publicity for a local cinema which had since closed down, and some passers-by observed something suspicious through a bare patch in one of the dinosaur's legs.

From inside the statue, firefighters recovered the lifeless body of a 39-year-old man who had apparently been trapped there for several days. His family had reported him missing just hours before the body was found. Although there are still some unanswered questions, it’s believed that the unfortunate man somehow dropped his mobile phone into the statue and climbed in headfirst in an attempt to retrieve it, before falling down into one of the hollow legs and being unable to get out. It’s not known if any cries for help went unheard, or if he was knocked out by a headlong fall.
 
Wow...upside down inside a hollow dino leg.....what a way to go out.

Wow...reminds me of stories of burglars getting stuck in chimneys only to be found much later....
 
Gee, some people exit the gene pool in style. I sometimes wonder if Mr Grim Reaper has humor.

Stephen Woytack 30 March 2015 in he 74-year-old was decorating his family's grave plot at St. Joseph's Cemetery in Throop, Pennsylvania, for Easter with his wife when the tombstone of his mother-in-law toppled over, pinning him underneath and crushing him to death. The stone had supposedly been dislodged when the previously frozen ground was thawed by the early spring temperatures. Woytack was buried in a plot directly in front of the tombstone that killed him.

He always knew she had it in for him...not sure which is worse, the dino or mother-in-law..
