How do you pack a 140 pound deer into a BMW convertible?
This was making its way around work a couple weeks back. Damn gruesome, but I couldn't help but study it for awhile trying to figure out how exactly the deer worked its way in like that.

I wondered that too. Do BMWs use serpentine belts?
Partly the speed and angle of the impact, partly sucked in by the serpentine belt?
I have not been able to find the original story on the web.
A friend of mine once it a bird with his car... But just as luck would have it: right at the air intake of his turbo: it sucked many feathers into the engine, which turned out to be a costly repair.
But that deer thing is odd.
And it reminds me of a Simpson dialog (the family is in the car when they hit a deer):
Homer: D'Oh
Marge: A deer!
Lisa: A female deer!

No air filter? Sucking dust into the engine will hone the cylinders a nice oval shape in a few thousand km!!!
