Two pilots aboard a prop plane crash-landed on a busy road in Fort Myers, Florida, on Saturday, rear-ending a pickup truck, according to police.
The Lee County Sheriff's Office said no injuries were reported and the FAA is leading the investigation.

Hi everyone. I am pleased to announce that my Extreme Weather Vault is now active on Vimeo. Some of my best work is now available as restored 4k clips, including tornadoes, hurricanes, dust storms and lightning, captured over the last 40 years. I am currently adding new short films at a rate of about one per week. #azwx #stormchasing #weather #footage

A B-1 bomber suffered landing gear failure at Edwards AFB. As aircraft was skidding down dry lake bed,tower controller asked if they needed assistance.
Through the shower of smoke, dust, and sparks came the response from B-1 bomber crew...
"Dunno - we ain't done crashing' yet."

My favorite Bill Murray story isn't a behind the scenes one, it's a crank call he'd constantly pull on his buddy Mitch Glazer, co-writer of Scrooged. Mitch is married to actress Kelly Lynch, and Bill said whenever he'd catch the movie ROAD HOUSE on tv, which Lynch starred in as Patrick Swayze's love interest, he'd call Mitch from a random line so Mitch wouldn't know who was calling, and when Mitch would pick up, Bill would whisper:
"Mitch, quick, turn on TBS. Kelly's having sex with Patrick Swayze against a rock wall right now." and hang up.
Another time when the movie aired, Bill called and said, "They're doing it again. I don't know how you can handle this." and hang up. This would go on for years everytime Road House played on tv.
Finally when Mitch realized it was Bill Murray, Bill got his brother Brian Doyle Murray in on it, and when Mitch picked up, Brian would say, "TBS. Road House. Stop it before it's too late." 😂
