Wow... what can I really say... that's really shocking. It was really brave of him to go out in that just to take a dump. Then again, if he really was that desperate, the desperation makes you do things you woudln't otherwise, like stopping your car and walking through a dark and freezing night.

As a Brit I'm not surprised. The area is literally a shithole.

Wow.... All I can say is, this is a really shitty way to day. (No pun intended.) I hate being cold and wet at the same time. To die this way would make me into one angry ghost.

Cream rises to the top. So do dead fish.

Cold, wet, have to poop really badly, and dead. A small taste of hell, perhaps? Once again, our condolances to this man.

That's one of the saddest things I've ever read! That poor man! I keep thinking about the moment he realized that this was his last act on earth. So, so sad.

Sad, too, for his loved ones in the car, when it dawned on them what had happened to him.

I'm going to go give my hubby a kiss, now.

That just sucks.

But it does bring up a question I've had for a while. If you are crapping or pissing, and you die while in the middle of doing said activity, do you keep on crappin or stop?

The bowels and bladder release upon death, KOC, so, even if you're finished, you finish your business.

That's right. I forgot that people who are hanged crap themselves. Thanks TD. BUt what if its instantaneus(sp) death, like flying a plane into the ground and exploding?

You still lose all muscular (i.e. sphincteral) control. Thus, when you are dead, it just sl-i-i-i-i-eds on out!

Have I grossed everybody out, yet?

Oh, please. :) You'll have to do better than that to gross out THIS crowd!

Has anyone seen the movie "Clerks"? Dead guy? Uhm...yeah...Ewwwwwww.

Santa Caca!

Dumpster, there is no way you can gross out anyone who has seen the South Park episode "The Return of Chef" with that kind of talk.

(For folks who haven't seen it, basically, Chef dies at the end and craps himself. The turd that comes out is simply hilarious. I rewound that several times. It's all cartoons so it's not real or gory.)

I must say I loved that episode. It's sad that Chef had to die to avoid the Super Adventure Club, but the dying and crapping himself scene was damn funny.

Ok. So even if you get shot and die? Like, Michael Kennedy, the guy who came and ambushed a local police station? He crapped himself as he died?

Just need clarification.

Yep.

OK I got it. Thanks Dumptser.

Upon death, all of the muscles that the live brain holds tight will all relax, thus releasing everything from the body that the muscles keep inside.

Poor guy.
Poop on!

This is a classic freak accident. What are the chances that someone would have stopped to poo there, let alone fell into the ditch? I would say a person has a better chance of freezing to death in Texas, in the middle of July.

My condolances to the family. Just a tragic tragic situation.

A footnote, not everyone soils themselves upon death. It just depends on the situation.

I would assume this guy did, as he obviously needed to go. On the other hand, when Commodore Vanderbilt died, his autopsy revealed an entire colon impacted with hardened feces. In other words, the Commodore hadn't shit in a long, long time before he died, so Healthy is right.

Rotten way to die. Standing at the Pearly gates, I can't imagine the exchange between him and St Peter.

May the poor man rest in peace. Condolences to the family.
