'Final Destination': Could a car wash kill you?

carwash_murder

I recently used the outer-right 20% of my peripheral vision to watch a commercial for The Final Destination, and when this shot came up, I assumed the thing about to potentially decapitate Haley Webb must definitely be a chainsaw. But no, it’s just a giant revolving ShamWow. Time for an important PopWatch poll.

    Maybe to avoid asphyxiation (spelllling) she had to stick her head out of the sunroof…maybe?

    If I remember from the bits glimpsed in the trailer, the car she is in is filling up with water and the doors are locked, so she’s trying to get out of the car when the opened sunroof decides to close on her and hold her in place for the Shammy of Death.

    The pressure with which the SoD will hit her is obviously not enough to take paint off a car, but might be enough to flail skin off her face. The real danger I see in this scenario is smothering and/or having your neck broken by the object the spinning wheel that’s at the heart of the SoD. While it gives to allow objects to pass it undamaged, it also puts intense pressure on a neck apparently trapped in the sunroof. SNAP!

    She’ll be fine, that’s not her real head. Kind of looks like she’s turning into the American Werewolf in London.

    wow Jenny! (: this must have taken ahilwe to make, but it definitely paid off. THISS is DEFINITELY the best video out of them all, not just because I talk to you, but seriously. it doesn’t go over the 30 second limit and i have to say, it’s just plain KICK BUTT (to be appropriate. : D ) and i mean, the transition fairy dust like part between hyper crush and breathe carolina, well thought out my friend. (: i really hope you win because you definitely are just too creative! sorry this is so long.
