Is this true

ARKANSAS – USA

A Little Rock woman was killed yesterday after leaping through her moving car's sunroof during an incident best described as a "mistaken rapture" by dozens of eye-witnesses.

Thirteen other people were injured after a twenty-car pile-up resulted from people trying to avoid hitting the woman, who was apparently convinced that the rapture was occurring when she saw twelve people floating up into the air, and then passed a man on the side of the road who she believed was Jesus.

"She started screaming `He's back! He's back!' and climbed out through the sunroof and jumped off the roof of the car," said Everett Williams, husband of 28-year-old Georgann Williams who was pronounced dead at the scene. "I was slowing down but she wouldn't wait till I stopped," Williams said. "She thought the rapture was happening and was convinced that Jesus was gonna lift her up into the sky," he went on to say.

"This is the strangest thing I've seen since I've been on the force," said Paul Madison, first officer on the scene. Madison questioned the man who looked like Jesus and discovered that he was on his way to a toga costume party, when the tarp covering the bed of his pickup truck came loose and released twelve blow-up sex dolls filled with helium, which then floated up into the sky.

Ernie Jenkins, 32, of Fort Smith, who's been told by several of his friends that he looks like Jesus, pulled over and lifted his arms into the air in frustration and said "Come back," just as the Williams' car passed him, and Mrs. Williams was sure that it was Jesus lifting people up into heaven as they drove by him.

"I think my wife loved Jesus more than she loved me," the widower said when asked why his wife would do such a thing.



When asked for comments about the twelve sex dolls, Jenkins replied "This is all just too weird for me. I never expected anything like this to happen."

There are so many WTFs in that, it's hard to respond.

Edit: Thanks Ryoder.

Yeah i figured that too. but i "I" checked it out on snopes i would not have bothered posting it


as to the 'what ifs', truth is often stranger than fiction and the chain of improbable events that have lead to some true situations can sometimes be staggering

Let's be fair, hasn't this happened to all of us at one point ?

You are driving to a party, dressed up as Jesus (and Jesus would go to a party with 12 helium-filled inflatable sex dolls)... it happens.

I can't be judgmental.

Something good did come out of this, the woman was saved from having to return to '75 Fleetwood single-wide trailer hell.

I could see where it would happen. There is a HUGE church a little west of Little Rock (on I-40) that has massive crosses on the road before you get to it.

At night, its the only thing around lit up. Kinda weird.
