Three Empty Bottles of Smirnoff Vodka and a Titanic Mistake
Today, around 4 p.m. a two-wheel drive Ford Ranger met an ugly fate on the Samoa Beach. According to Steve Young who took these photos and video, when he arrived at the beach around 3:50 p.m., he could see the truck stuck in the sand with waves slapping the tires. He and several others who were in the area went over to it and discovered that there were three empty bottles of Smirnoff Vodka in the back which may or may not have contributed to the vehicle being in that predicament.
Later, someone else noted that the battery had been removed.He and others attempted to call the Coast Guard, the Arcata Police Department, and the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office for assistance. However, the incoming tide soon swallowed up the truck, rolled it over, and chewed on it for a bit. Young said that he talked to a marine biologist at the beach who told him the truck had been stuck in the sand since the day before.

It has plates,the owner cant be hard to find.
Mistake?
Or completely understandable decision after the driver took one too many good, hard looks at the top of the ballot?
LOL – indeed. Those bottles of vodka and a shortcut under the ocean to China must have looked pretty good
Aww… those cute little Ford trucks are sweet. That is a real shame…
Leave the sand for the professionals….
At least the battery got pulled out. af
Probably stolen. If the owner was trying to be able to recover it later, he forgot about all the water that will be in the fluids…oil, tranny, etc..
Hahaha the titanic weighs like 50,000 tons lil more than 900 c’mon now!
Who knew the former 49ers quarterback was such a photo journalist?
Is that a dog in the last picture in drivers seat?
I thought it looked like a person with a camera! I think it is misc. stuff inside the cab that stacked up when the truck was on it’s side.
Liberals trying to take a short cut to British Columbia?
They always threaten the move to Canada, maybe it’s time to build a ferry landing and make America great again….
We should dump our trash in Canada, why not?
Excellent job of polluting the ocean![edit]
Not sure a few quarts of oil and a couple of gallons of gas really “pollute” the ocean. The battery was removed, probably by tweeker thieves, so if that was the case, there was no gas to pollute. How do you get around town ?
Ship of fools? Truck load of Idiots!
Nice shot of the license plate.no respect for the ocean,and lucky enough to have a vehicle,ahhh,had.i would love to have it,I don’t have one anymore.so many jokes about this.lol
