Nothing to Fear but Sphere Itself



Authorities in Seattle temporarily closed a street after motorists were stunned by dozens of large metal balls that spilled out of a truck and cascaded down the street, damaging several cars.



A video taken by a person at the scene Wednesday afternoon shows the balls loudly bouncing and rolling down the street as a driver slowly backs up, apparently attempting to escape the onslaught.



The Seattle Times reports that police spokesman Patrick Michaud said the balls appeared to be "really big ball bearings" and that it was unclear what caused the load of them to fall out of the truck.



Several cars were damaged but no injuries were reported.

Large iron balls like that are used to crush the rocks into powdwer for cement and in mineral extraction for mining.

What an unusual event to make the news. Must have been a slow news day in Seattle. If the owner of the balls wanted to wreak havoc, he should have dropped them out an airplane instead of a truck.

They had about 3 seconds in the video of the driver and I could not grab his picture. He did not look like the brightest bulb on the tree. Our Civil War enthusiasts would have gone BONKERS over the FREE cannonballs!
