I live for great stories—finding them, telling them, living them. This is a running log of all that. It's a great life. (Read this, my short take on why stories are all that matter.)

How to Drive a Golf Cart Into a Tree in Five Easy Steps

One thing that always amazes me about being human is my endless capacity to do stupid things. This is awesome, because my fellow humans also possess this same potential. Here's one of us awesome humans stupidly driving a golf cart into a tree, and a step-by-step guide to how to do it yourself.

Our show-you-how driver: An official for the Ladies European Tour, during said tour. (It's funny because he wasn't hurt.)

 

How to Drive a Golf Cart into a Tree

1. Release the brake by jamming onto the accelerator as hard as you can.

2. Promptly yank the steering wheel hard in the direction of the nearest people.

3. Try to hit them. Make THEM get out of YOUR way.

4. Having cleared all human obstacles from your path, straighten out the wheel, aim for timber.

5. Square your cart. A graze doesn't count. Only a chest-bruising, fender-denting impact will suffice.

NOTE: And of course, always ignore the brake pedal.
