When a road grader and a transport truck collided, far from the nearest fire station on a remote stretch of the Trans-Labrador highway in Canada, a water bomber was sent to deal with the blaze consuming the cab of the truck.
Which it did.
Both drivers survived.

A new star-crammed Irish comedy sketch for charidee
Jennifer Magee writes:
Some of the best actors and film crew in Ireland have come together for a number of online comedy sketches in aid of St Francis Hospice, Raheny [Dublin]. Immatürity for Charity features Domhnall Gleeson, Brendan Gleeson, Amy Huberman, Robert Sheehan, Hugh O’Conor, Brian Gleeson, David Wilmot and many more.
Their mission: to embarrass themselves with pride and embrace their immature side in comedy sketches that aim to raise money and awareness for the hospice.
Immatürity for Charity is now available to view online – Donate and view MORE sketches here
