I wonder how often this happens????

Didn't we hear about a guy who got trapped in a trash truck looking for cans about a year ago. I wanna say it was in Hartsdale. But then again, I've never been down there, so what do I know?

The answer is not alot.

-Now if you ask me about firefighting, THAT's DIFFERENT!

Did he think it was a bench or a mattress?
