Thrown from roof of moving minivan, and runs naked along bypass

This story unfolds this week in Reading, PA and is one of the most unbelievable and ridiculous stories I have ever heard. To summarize, a man was driving route 422 in Reading doing 55 mph. He proceeded to climb out his window onto the roof of his minivan, where I assume he was “surfing”. The van lost control and he was thrown over an embankment, which motorists witnessed and assumed he was dead. Suddenly, the man appeared with a huge gash in his side that exposed his organs. He proceeded to take off his clothes, and run naked down the side of route 422. Police arrived, and couldn’t subdue him with 3 taser hits and pepper spray. Instead, the police had to tackle him to control him and get him to the hospital, where he is now in critical condition. Similar to beer muscles, this man had “drug muscles” which can be even scarier.This article was a good read, at some points I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes. At other points, you feel terrible for this guy and hope he ends up being alright. Regardless, it is a highly interesting story that you find almost unbelievable when first reading through. I would have thought it was a joke if not for the credible source of the article. The story is insane leading up to the crash, but the real shocker is what happened afterwards when the gentleman should have been dead.
“Witnesses told police that the man then climbed up an embankment, stripped naked and ran several hundred yards down the busy highway bleeding from a foot-long gash in his side”.
He should have been dead, and with organs exposed he had the ability to pull off streaking down the highway! I wonder what drugs he was on, whether it be Cocaine or Speed… or maybe a combination. He probably didn’t feel anything from the crash, and didn’t know what was really happening. During my bout with Bipolar, I went through a 2 year period I call the dark ages. Basically, I was usually high and my behavior was leading me to the gates of hell. I can’t imagine being so high that I would climb onto the roof of my vehicle speeding down the highway. We assume the worse of this man with drug use, but mental illness could play into the story. Most likely high and in a hallucinogenic state, he probably felt outside of his own body. This gentleman has a long road ahead of him, and will probably be sentenced to a state hospital. Dealing with the rock bottom of a mental disease or drug abuse is difficult, but sometimes an incident like this will help an individual turn their life around. It is quite a story to tell your grandchildren, of surfing on the roof of a moving car and running around naked on a bypass!
