Mr Burns: "You know, Smithers, I think I'll donate a million dollars to the local orphanage...when bears fly"



Smithers: "... Will you be donating that million dollars now, Sir?"
Mr Burns: "No, I'd still prefer not."

Summary: "A driver hit a bear and sent it flying through the windshield of another car, killing two Canadians".

Flying bear kills two Canadians in freak accident | Top News | Reuters

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Two Canadians died instantly in a freak accident when a car hit a 440-pound (200-kg) black bear and sent the animal flying straight through the windshield of an oncoming vehicle, local media said Wednesday.

The bear's body hit the 25-year-old driver and a 40-year-old man sitting behind her and then shot out of the back window. The bear also died.

The accident happened Monday night in a rural area about 25 miles north of the federal capital Ottawa.

"We don't see (this) often, even if we live in the country. Lots of deer, but collisions with a bear and two people died? That's really rare," local police spokesman Martin Fournel told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.

Collisions between vehicles and animals are common in Canada, which has a healthy population of large wild animals such as moose and deer.

I had an idea for an awesome invention once: a device that straps to the front of your car and, when you hit a deer, automatically butchers it and drops the meat into your trunk.
