I missed, at first, the part about the cannonball being fired by the Mythbusters, and I was thinking "Now who in the hell has a live cannon, let alone a cannonball to fire? And why did they?"

If someone had let loose a real live cannon ball in Dublin, Ireland, it could have caused some very serious damage, costing up to 20 or even 30 euros.

|  | is, against all odds, still a scuba viking. | | Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Alta Loma, California | | there's no way that a single cannonball could have traveled so far and caused so much damage. What are the odds? Obviously, the ancient aliens telepathically controlled the ball to wreak as much (non-lethal) havoc as they could to demonstrate our inferior building materials relative to theirs. Don't even think about trying to refute me, you don't have any evidence that they didn't do it!

This is bad news, I hope the insurance can cover everything, and the Mythbusters isn't cancelled.

Just something about this, especially since no one got hurt, that is totally amazing. Seems like something you would write into a comedy movie.
Also, the picture of the family who's minivan was hit looked like they were laughing at the irony of the situation.
And I'm wondering what myth they were testing with a cannon this time.

I know, I know. Sounds so insensitive of me, but the whole news sounds like a scene from a comedy movie. I'm glad no one got hurt, or I would feel too guilty I found this funny.
