From CBS Los Angeles:

A 35-year-old woman who tried to climb down the chimney of her estranged boyfriend's Woodcrest home early Saturday morning had to be rescued after getting stuck, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.

Homeowner Tony Hernandez said the woman, the mother of his three children, had tried around 5 a.m. to open the door of his home in the 15800 block of Rancho Viejo Drive. When she found it locked she climbed to the roof and attempted to get in through the chimney. That's when she became wedged inside the 12-by-12-inch chimney. She had apparently removed her clothes to aid her descent.

This vid is a little long but trust us, the laughter is contagious after a while.

WARNING: Obviously work-unsafe.

A wall of a Morton Salt storage facility in Chicago collapsed Tuesday, spilling mountains of salt onto cars in the nearby Acura dealership.

The roof bear of the building near where the accident occurred bears the Salt company's motto: "When it Rains it Pours."

The only thing that could have made this more perfect would have been if there was a pretzel factory next door instead of a car lot.

Never before has the phrase "hold the pickles" led to more near-bloodshed. Luckily, no one was hurt from this incident, except maybe our collective dignity as a nation/race of sentient beings.
