Paul vs. Stump

Great battles in history: King Kong vs. Godzilla, Batman vs. Superman, Dusty Rhodes vs. Ric Flair, Paul vs. Stump

By sheer virtue of the fact that we are posting a video below of a man in a Chevy Trailblazer trying to uproot a tree stump, and by sheer virtue of the fact that the aforesaid video of a man in a Chevy Trailblazer trying to uproot a tree stump is titled “Paul vs. Stump” to imply that there is indeed a battle taking place, you can pretty well bet that Paul’s endeavor to pull out a tree stump with his SUV is not altogether successful.

You would be absolutely correct in making this assumption. But if your assumption is that Paul winds up short a rear bumper, then think again.

Poor Paul. Out of all the logical endings to this particular scenario, having your ‘Blazer act like a makeshift slingshot and catapulting a freshly-yanked stump directly into your rear window like a baseball heaved by your neighbor’s clumsy kid was probably one of the least likely outcomes.

Surprisingly, the biggest mistake here may not have been Paul’s underestimation of force or Murphy’s Law. If there’s one lesson we can all take from this, it’s that you should never shoot video in portrait mode.

Paul vs. Stump

Stump wins. Flawless Victory. Fatality. Toasty.

Seriously. Stop it.
