This is extremely amusing. How factually based it is remains a mystery.

CINCINNATI (EAP) - A Cincinnati teenager was killed yesterday when her plastic Jesus dashboard figure was driven into her chest by her car's airbag which inflated during an accident involving two other vehicles.

17-year-old Darlene Fulps of Cincinnati was apparently holding her Jesus figure close to her chest when she ran through a red light and collided with two other vehicles in a busy intersection.

"The air bag inflated and pushed the head of Jesus straight through her heart," said Tom Young, medical examiner at the scene of the accident. "If it wasn't for the plastic Jesus, Ms. Fulps would still be alive today."

"Air bags have saved thousands of lives, but in this case it actually took a life, thanks to Jesus," said police officer Graham Pryor, first officer at the scene.

Robert Fulps, Darlene's father and devout Christian man said "It was just our daughter's time to go, and we can't question the actions of God. My daughter loved Jesus and worshipped Him, and I think she's probably talking to Him in heaven right now."

"We gave our daughter the dashboard Jesus for her birthday last year, and she really liked it," said Mrs. Gladys Fulps. "It's too bad that Jesus ended up killing her, but we believe she's in heaven now, and we're happy for her, and hope to re-unite with her when we get to heaven."

"We're just glad our daughter had Jesus in her heart when she died," said Mr. and Mrs. Fulps

Amusing, yes. Factual, perhaps. Sad, definitely.

That last quote was absolutely horrible. I find this to have a dubious basis in fact.

ROTFL!! Oh man. I get the picture of the police officer pulling her off the steering wheel and seeing Jesus' round felt feet sticking out of her chest...

Terrible if it's real, but there are too many puns in there for me to believe it out of hand.

I dunno, it could happen, but if it did I don't think her parents would be ignorant enough to say that about their daughter. So I'm with Seneca on that one.

However that was pretty funny .

Most likely comes from: http://web2.airmail.net/~elo/news/index.html where the following is found:

Well...in this case, Jesus doesn't save...

I kinda doubt the story is true, though...

Definitely smacks of urban legend...

BeeKay: thanks for that link. I am now going to have nightmares for the next week or so.

Well, seeing as the guy wrote the story himself (and credited it to "EAP," which I'm assuming means "Elroy Associated Press"), I would say that this pretty much confirms it's an urban legend (or at least a wannabe urban legend).

I couldn't find it on Slopes.net, which is the internets main source (for me, at least) for Urban Legends, but I still go with the general consencus around here: It's fake. And, going with the general consencus around here again, I'd have to agree wit hthe fact that it's too funny and unreal to be true. (Especially the parents remarks, which I personally found to be funny as hell)...
