Honestly, how stupid can people be? First, that car could have been easily
pushed out of the snow bank, why would you try to pull it backwards?
Second, did they actually hook it up to the BUMPER?

beats me... all I know is its DAMN funny to laugh at other people's lack
of forethought. (And remember, we've all done stupid stuff in our day.
Just not as spectacular or with a video camera nearby.)
