Video: Garbageman Gets a Big-Time Scare

Poor garbagemen. Not only do they have to deal with our nasty, smelly trash — and often put their life and limb at risk while doing so — but sometimes they have to put up with snot-nosed punks who want to play tricks on them. Or at least the garbageman below had to put up with one such snot-nosed punk.

Actually, I use the phrase "snot-nosed punk" facetiously. The prank below is pretty damn funny, and I easily can imagine my friends and I pulling off such a trick when I was that age.

Still, you can't help but feel sorry for the garbageman. Poor guy.
