Wow that is Farked up. This is the kind of thing that does not happen that often but when it does makes everyone afraid of everyone else. This is also why I would never take a bus.

 
fatal_exception 2008-07-31 10:01:00 AM  
I'd like a seat in the non-decapitation section please. Jesus.

 
echinuts 2008-07-31 10:02:13 AM  
Guess that's the last time that guy keeps the light on for the whole ride.

Your head is now free to move about the country.

 
Retarded Rabid Elk 2008-07-31 10:03:23 AM  
Don't worry. If this man is convicted, he will be facing 3 long hard years in a Canadian prison!

 
Trapdoor 2008-07-31 10:04:22 AM  
That's what you get for snoring the entire time. ...or for trying to be interested in the scenery from Medicine Hat through to Winnipeg... either will drive you mad.

 
PirateKing 2008-07-31 10:04:44 AM  
Yikes. I have definitely sat next to some crazy people on the Greyhound, but this guy takes the head-shaped cake.

"While we were waiting on the side of the road, he was taunting the police with the head in his hand," said Caton.

Okay, that's a little weird, even for Manitoba.

 
degreeless 2008-07-31 10:05:37 AM  
Perhaps his view was being obstructed.

 
El Farquistador 2008-07-31 10:06:34 AM  
Taunting the police with the cut-off head of the victim? That's one of the most farked up things I've ever read.

 
Basking_lizard 2008-07-31 10:07:26 AM  
I was only kind of disturbed until I remembered that my cousin is in the middle of a bus trip across the country. I hope he's already in BC. :/

...oh good I just reread the article and the bus was eastbound, not westbound.

Poor kid. That's so terrible. :(

 
ukmhz 2008-07-31 10:08:14 AM

JETSOLVER 2008-07-31 10:08:24 AM  
Umm, a question for the pro's in the audience...

What the hell kind of chemical makes a person like THAT?

 
Dorf11 2008-07-31 10:08:46 AM  
I drove by the bus this morning on my way to work. The cops had blocked off the highway and I had to detour around. There were tarps laid down by the cargo doors and I thought it must've been a drug bust.

Because decapitation is always the last thing that goes through your head.

*snarehit*

 
SwallowTheKnife 2008-07-31 10:08:59 AM  
"While we were watching the door, he calmly walks up to the front with the head in his hand and the knife and just calmly stares at us and drops the head right in front of us," said Caton.

Caton described the attacker as surprisingly calm. "It was like he was at the beach or something. There was no rage in him. He wasn't swearing or cursing or anything. It was just like he was a robot or something."


He must have been high on marijuana.

 
San-LC 2008-07-31 10:09:07 AM  
fatal_exception: I'd like a seat in the non-decapitation section please. Jesus.

I believe the bus driver's name is pronounced "Hey-soos."

 
fatal_exception 2008-07-31 10:09:10 AM  
From another article: "When we saw the head, we knew he was dead,"

and

One small boy, who was with an adult man and woman, was given a plush teddy bear by a crisis health worker.

As a crisis worker I know you have to do something but that seems somehow woefully inadequate under the circumstances.

 
KinetiKiteniK 2008-07-31 10:10:04 AM  
Wow, I know both of these guys and they do this sort of thing every week. Next month its in Prince George!

 
p the boiler 2008-07-31 10:10:25 AM  
I sat next to a dirty hippy on a greyhound from Lafayette, IN to Cincinnati, OH when I was in college. The dude reeked of tomato soup, patchuli and sweat stink. It was awful, he would not shut up either... but I never thought about pulling out a knife and gutting the guy and using his head as bowling ball.

 
Scubachisteve 2008-07-31 10:11:00 AM  
No one tried to stop the guy, instead they counted the stabs? And it surprises me that no one was carrying a gun....and that the article never said if they had someone in custody, wtf? Shennanigans, possibly?

 
Vincent Price Superstar 2008-07-31 10:11:06 AM  
This is awful, yes, but the sheer bizarritude and surreality of the whole story had me grinning, almost laughing the whole time - it's just that unbelievable. There probably won't be any follow up - the perp is obviously as crazy as a shiat-house rat, but the thing that I can't stop wondering is: what was the motivation?

I have a semi-regular customer at my shop who reeks of body odor everytime he comes in here. I've told him to stop coming in when he stinks. I've had other customers complain viciously about it. I can think of at least one guy who would probably want to cut off Stinky's head for smelling so bad.

Maybe Sir Stabbedalot had poor hygiene.

 
AlwaysRightBoy [TotalFark] 2008-07-31 10:11:32 AM  
Do not snore on a bus, simple.

 
Strangerarranger 2008-07-31 10:11:50 AM  
Was the head able to give a statement to police?

 
bburgi 2008-07-31 10:11:54 AM  
LaZBoy82: Wow that is Farked up.

THIS

 
daffy 2008-07-31 10:13:00 AM  
The guys head kept rolling onto his shoulder, so he got rid of the problem. It didn't help that his head phones were too loud, playing crappy music. You can only take so much of that before you snap.

 
swahnhennessy 2008-07-31 10:13:06 AM  
Holy hell, that is crazy.

I once wore a little girl's head as a hat through three states.

That is so much fail.

Retarded Rabid Elk: Don't worry. If this man is convicted, he will be facing 3 long hard years in a Canadian prison!

Actually... an unprovoked attack like this will probably get him dangerous offender status, which means we lock him up for as long as we feel like (forever). Takes quite a bit to GET that status, but if you can't get it for decapitating a sleeping stranger on a bus, I'm not sure what you COULD get it for.

If you imagine Benny Hill music playing while the event unfolded it has a genuine comic charm to it.

Jesus, that was seriously scary. Never has that tag been so appropriate.

And Vincent Price Superstar, how do you tell someone they stink? I've never been able to do that. Sorry for the threadjack.

 
Ninja Wicked 2008-07-31 10:15:36 AM  
Retarded Rabid Elk: Don't worry. If this man is convicted, he will be facing 3 long hard years in a Canadian prison!

I have a feeling that in this case he might be serving much much longer in an asylum for the criminally insane.

 
The Black Spy 2008-07-31 10:15:36 AM  
Being a guy who likes to decapitate people on the bus, I find this thread amusing.

You just don't have an imagination. That's your problem.

Maybe the victim wouldn't stop yammering on his cellphone.

It's always too late when you think of the perfect comeback

Proteejay 2008-07-31 10:17:20 AM  
There are other ways to get head.

On another note:

We hates when other peoples headphones are too effin loud.

We hates when people will try to figure out what was wrong with the perp. He's crazy. Suicide by cop would save the court system and tax payers a lot of time and money.

dennysgod 2008-07-31 10:17:40 AM  
Has to be a white guy, not just because they are in Canada, but because on average the really creepy, weird murders are done by whites.

WTF is up with that anyway, when the last time you heard of some minority being arrested for killing 14 people, cutting them up and putting their parts in the fridge for safe keeping.

Maybe he lost one head, and was afraid the consigliere would off him if he didn't have the right number of heads.

OR

Was it one of these guys?
