SHOCKING German Man Forgets Where He Parks His Car –then Finds It 20 Years Later by Naijabash(m): 12:42pm On Nov 17, 2017 |
Wonder shall never end ....News reaching us from The Independent has it that Back in 1997 in the German city of Frankfurt, a man reported his car as stolen to the police. Twenty years later, the authorities in the city have tracked down the missing vehicle, only to discover that the man who owned it had in fact, just forgotten where he’d parked the car and had assumed it had been stolen.The vehicle was found in a garage in an old industrial building that is due to be demolished. The car was in the way of the demolition so it was reported to the police who then investigated who the owner was. According to German regional paper Augsberger Allgemein, the man, now 76-years-old, was driven by the police with his daughter to be reunited with the car. Unfortunately the car was no longer functional and had to be scrapped. “The car can no longer be driven and will be sent to the scrap heap,” Frankfurt authorities said. The incident is reminiscent of another German case, in which a man was reunited with his vehicle two years after parking up and going on a drinking binge in Munich, only to forget where he’d parked. He reported it missing and eventually police found the vehicle 4km away from where the man thought he’d parked it. It had 40,000 euros in cash in the boot, along with 50,000 euros worth of tools. Earlier this year a man from Scotland lost his car after attending a Stoneroses gig in Manchester. He reportedly searched for the vehicle for 5 days before giving up. He even contacted the council and various companies in a bid to trace the vehicle. He eventually reported the car stolen, but it was found six months later, exactly where he’d left it, though with parking fines estimated at over £5,000. And the Car remained where he parked it for 20year ... unbelievable!!!

That's a clear case of chronic amnesia or it could even be a dementia. |

Some time last year, I was going to host a group of people in my house at 12noon on the said day. Then at 10am, I received a business call that I also needed to attend to. So I calculated that I could attend to the business and still make it before the time, being that the road wasn't a straight one, I decided to park at a point and continued by joining public transport. On my way back, when I got to that same bustop where I parked my car, I totally forgot I had parked there so I quickly boarded a bike home. On getting home it was 12noon on the dot and a few people were already standing in front of my house and was worried I wasn't home. Immediately they saw me, one of them said we thought you won't be back soon since we didn't see your car and at that very moment, I realized i had forgotten my car where I had parked it. I told them though and we laughed over it. After the meeting, I then went back to pick my car. So this could happen to anyone due to pressure or some other things but pls not for '20yrs' |
