Welcome to the train-wrecks thread! This thread is meant to simplify the process of watching spectacular failures from the comfort of your chair. Feel free to post links to threads, movies, pictures, or even write a story about a train-wreck.

My best one was deleted. It was a couple years ago, and involved a girl, a boob job and another Pelicanite...

Wasn't there one that involved Motion, a 930, and a diamond ring? Or was it just the ring?

This is probably the most memorable one I've ever seen. The guy whom this thread centers around (Charlie Wenzel, a.k.a. "cdubzon40s") is probably THE single biggest knob I've ever seen or heard of on the Internet anywhere. This thread goes on, and on, and on, and on. . . but it's worth reading if you have the time. The guy gets pWn3D in the worst way and probably will never have any sort of a reputation again for the rest of his life. All over 25 bucks.

Many thought he would perish by an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, and he did, figuratively.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

This was a classic one. Me and my friend's bet on how long we could "hold out". Oh, it was funny.

It also, unfortunately, brought about 10,000 extra people to our forum, nearly breaking it, and many of them have hung around just so they could claim to have been part of the "Wenzel Event". It was bad for the overall health and wellbeing of that group...don't hope that this board ever gets a thread like that.
