Sux being him, how do you not know something doesn't feel right before that happens....I mean all 4 wheels at once??

You got to think the people walking around the car just wanted to explode laughing at the guy....

How the heck was everyone so serious sounding when they crowded around the car? I didn't hear a single bit of laughter... I'm sorry, but I would have been cracking up. I can MAYBE understand forgetting to torque one wheel... but all four? It didn't even look like those things were hand tightened with how quickly they fell right off.

How embarrassing.

You would be surprised what people can forget when they are in a hurry or easily distracted by something else.

If that were me,as soon as the wheels came off I would run and hide behind the nearest bush or tree possible cause that is embarrassing.
