Crocodile Injured By Falling Circus Accountant in Freak Bus Accident

I was going to bury this in Footnotes but I can't. I JUST CAN'T. You will never read another headline like that again.

So, this happened today:

A dangerous reptile sustained injuries after being squashed by a portly circus accountant on a roadtrip in northern Russia on Tuesday.

The two-meter-long crocodile was peacefully snoozing on the floor when the tour bus hit a bump in the road, triggering an unfortunate chain of events that caused a 120-kilogram female passenger to be thrown into the crocodile and said crocodile to vomit for several hours afterward, RIA Novosti reported.

Both reportedly sustained shock and minor injuries. But the crocodile, named Fedya, apparently fared worse than the accountant. He vomited for three hours after the accidental full body slam, though a medical examination found he was clear of any internal injuries, Komsomolskaya Pravda reported.

No matter how bad your day was, at least you didn't have to ride to work with a crocodile in a bus.
