I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it for myself.
This tale takes place in the Coyote Canyon in Southern California.
During a rest stop, at an outhouse, the grim discovery of the Exploding Jogger was made.
In a site eerily reminiscent to the strange tale of the Exploding Camper (Part 1), evidence of a massive build up of explosive gas within an innocent jogger was discovered.
There it was for all the world to see, in the bottom of the outhouse the bottom half of a red jogging suit, shoes and socks. The chilling reality of what happened was apparent. An innocent jogger stopping to use the facilities inadvertently ignited the explosive gasses contained in the outhouse or himself, most likely himself as he left at least some of his clothing behind.
As this outhouse was constructed of only four wooden walls without a roof it is painfully clear the Jogger launched himself into near earth orbit, as again no body was found in the vicinity.
Due to the remote location of the outhouse no officials were on hand to comment on the incident.
Again this event was written off as an isolated incident.
The evidence of global warming starting pouring in soon after this incident. Proving the theory that a large amount of methane gas high in the atmosphere is a major cause of global warming
This update to this story just in.
April 4, 1998
Sources close to the writer confirm an additional sighting of the telltale remains of an exploding jogger found in the mountains of Colorado.
My source speaking on the conditions of anonymity, as he is a salesman who's credibility could be damaged by revealing what he saw, stated that he could hardly believe his eyes.
"There in the bottom of the outhouse was a pair of jogging pants and shoes"
This writer must insist that the Federal government become involved in determining the cause of these massive buildups of methane gas in innocent campers and joggers and put and end to it before global warming caused by the methane emisions turns the planet into a smelly if not fiery hell.
Perhaps a world wide tax on chilidogs to finance further research should be considered.
