It’s not every day that a stolen truck plows into a playground. It also isn’t every day that a witness interview describing the incident is more memorable than the crash itself.
Watch:
@nbcsouthflorida A crossing guard said he feared for his life when a stolen utility truck careened into another car before slamming into the playground of a Philadelphia elementary school — and went viral for eating an ice cream cone post-crash. “I’m bobbing and weaving. I’m just thankful,” he continued while eating an ice cream cone in a clip that has since made waves online. “Thankful to be alive right now. Thank you, Jesus.” crash kids playground viral icecream

The sunglasses. The ice cream. The hat and vest. Ladies and gentlemen, we are looking at an icon.
The crossing guard’s name is Jamele Ransom, and honestly, I hope this guy gets a raise for being hilarious.
The reporter laughing at his reaction is the cherry on top of this entire interview. Thankfully no children were hurt during the accident, and I can think of no better way to celebrate than by eating an ice cream cone.
