I’m struggling to think of something flippant and cutting enough to capture the irony while also doing justice to and being respectful of the dead and wounded.
“Supplies, motherfucker!”
Clonk.
(I am certain this does not in fact meet your second criteria.)
Aren’t airdrops parachuted in? I’m not trying to be a dick, but people didn’t have time to move out of the way?
The chutes didn’t open. There’s video. Having a heavy pallet crash through your roof can cause death. We’re talking maybe half the weight of a car, traveling at faster than freeway speed.
And I still struggle to belive that drop found it’s “target”. It’s so stupid.
It’s why I have trouble believing this even happened. It’s absurd.
If it’s what I imagine to be massive pallets of equipment, people could wrongly be under the impression that these drops will float down like feathers when in reality they’re like a low-speed automobile collision. So as they approach the ground their speed and drift may catch some off-guard.
Additionally as the article points out, some drops have broken apart or their parachutes do not deploy.
The very idea of this happening is so ridiculous that I almost don’t believe it. It’s like some Looney Toons shit.
