I think I'm going to go with the alien abduction as there were no cars around anywhere. The guy even made the snowplow stop.

Gee, I would have been inclined to get some help for this guy. All kidding aside, he was in a dangerous position being naked in a snowstorm :neutral:

I agree.

Wondering now, did you keep driving or stop to see if maybe he needed help? Seeing it was a quiet road...

It's seems obvious something was wrong.

Poor guy... Must have been a rough weekend for him.

We got into an accident this weekend, and I was stuck in the ditch. I had my (almost) two year old in the back seat balling his eyes out. I watched 12 people drive by, looking at me struggling to get out and you know what? NOT ONE OF THEM STOPPED. One guy slowed down and yelled if I was okay out of the window of his monster truck, when I replied "sort of, just a bit stuck", he drove off in a hurry and didn't offer to help. It took me 30 minutes to dig myself out of the ditch. Stupid thing is I have the tow rope in my backseat if anyone would have offered to help it would have been an easy pull and I would have paid them. But no, people couldn't be bothered.

I'll never forget it and will always stop now each and every time I see someone in need. Naked or not, lol. In this guy's case it sounds like a bad breakup or mean friends. I hope everything worked out for him and he was able to locate some clothes.

I'm not 100% confident about putting a naked guy in my back seat where;

A) He's probably sweaty and disgusting and smelly and;

B) Probably mentally ill .... and sitting behind me ready to strangle me.

I would definitely think twice before picking someone like that up!!:twised:

BUT if he was the ass end (no pun intended) of a mean practical joke... I feel for the guy.

LOL! No you're right, in this case it might be safer just to ask if you can call someone for him.

A call is your definetly your best bet. Or in the States the nearest Police station. :wink:

Stag weekend. AKA, The Hangover: Part 3.

This thread reminds me of something I read recently. Yesterday I read a news article where a good samaritan heard a woman screaming from her car, ran over to help as she was being car jacked, only to be shot dead in front of his two kids :( Yes, he was a hero and saved a life. Very sad though.

on survival courses they'll usually say people suffering from hypothermia may start removing their clothes. Hope the guy wasn't wandering around lost
