Some 2,000 metric tons of oil have spilled in the Singapore Strait.

Bill Clinton, who is no longer the President, still gets a big old motorcade, which is a good thing, because he needs several extra vehicles around him to fend off the multiple slack-jawed civilians sideswiping him at every turn.

This morning in LA, actor Jason Alexander drove into a 14-year-old boy riding a bike on his way to school. Don't worry, everyone is fine. But, seriously, what did Jerry do to these people to mess them up so bad?

A windmill is such a lovely backdrop for a wedding photo... until it gets mad and starts knocking over the groomsmen, anyway.

In our continued series of Olympic investigations, pure in-depth sports analysis, we wonder today: How does the thing happening in the above picture not kill you? You're traveling 70mph and landing on ice. Plus: pointy things!

A New York designer is suing Anderson Cooper and the architect rehabbing Cooper's new Greenwich Village firehouse, claiming she was injured on the job when she fell through a hole in the floor. Where a firepole was.

A six-car DC Metro train (Red Line for those keeping score at home) derailed near Farragut North. No injuries are reported, though Post reporter J. Freedom duLac is totally late for work. (Pic via DCist.)

A man tries to perform a flip off of a swing, and proves to us why only children are allowed on playgrounds: adults are too dumb to use them.

Showing off in front of frat guys is little more than a desperate need to prove one's hollow machismo. This guy tried to demonstrate by kicking down a fence. Too bad the fence knew exactly where to kick back.

Here's a tip: if you're going to launch a hot air balloon, make sure it's actually in the air. Especially if you're going to fly over (and not into) crowds of people.

You know when you're driving on a freeway, and they have those signs that say "Maximum Height: 16 Feet"? Yeah, that's not just an estimate... because you will crash into that overpass.

The FBI raided the Queens apartment of a suspected terrorist, and then the terrorist crashed his car on the Whitestone Expressway at 4 p.m.. Asshole.

Don't worry, it wasn't with a nuclear bomb! Last week, researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory accidentally blew up part of a building with "a gun which acts like a Civil War Cannon". Even crazier, in a way.

It's safe to say whoever did Nicole Kidman's makeup last night will never find work in this town again. [Us]

Thirty-three-year-old Solange Raulston, a.k.a. DJ Reverend Soul, was killed yesterday when she was sideswiped by a truck while she was riding her bike in Greenpoint, the New York Post reports. The decade's end has been tragic for North Brooklyn musicians.

Rivers and his family were in a bus going from one gig to another when their bus slid on some ice, CNN reports:

Goldman Sachs just can't catch a break. The embattled bank faced another round of construction trouble over the weekend when glass panes atop of Goldman's new 43-story HQ on Vesey Street—the one Mayor Bloomberg described as one of the safest buildings in the city—rained down on the street below. No one was injured in the incident, but the shattered glass did disrupt traffic for two hours, quite possibly adding several thousand motorists to the list of people who now despise Goldman Sachs.

If Joe Biden ever offers you a ride in his limo, politely decline and find another way to get where you're going. The vice president's motorcade was involved in a traffic accident late yesterday, his third in under a week. Biden was heading over to The Daily Show when one of the advance police cars in his motorcade crashed into a livery cab on 49th Street. Unlike his accident on Nov. 11, though, no one died this time around. While the unmarked cop car was a little worse for the wear, none of the cars' occupants were seriously injured. And the drama didn't prevent Biden from doing a smash-up job when he sat down with Jon Stewart either, so that's nice. [WCBS, NYDN]

There are some truths we hold to be self-evident. Certain basic human rights; forces of nature, like gravity; or the dangers of pyrotechnics, for instance.
