Skyscraper's natural death ray melts Jaguar
A man parks his car outside a London skyscraper -- known as the Walkie-Talkie -- under construction. He returns to find elements of his car have been melted by light reflected from the building.
Coming back to your car and discovering it's been damaged can harden the soul.
What kind of human being thinks it's acceptable or amusing to walk up to someone's Bentley and smash a couple of windows?
At least those people can be caught. It's harder to indict a building.
That was the prospect Martin Lindsay faced when he returned to his parked Jaguar and discovered parts of it had been damaged.
In fact, they'd melted.
What made it even more frustrating was that this was London, where the only things that usually melt are people's legs after eight pints of lager.
However, as the BBC reports, he'd been given a clue when, as he approached, he was someone photographing his Jaguar.
He told the BBC: "The photographer asked me 'have you seen that car? The owner won't be happy.'"
Studying his side mirror, side panels and his lovely Jaguar badge, all suddenly warped, he saw a note tucked to his windshield.
