Tanning bed overcooks naked guy
After reading all the "Mommy don't" thread materials, I'm in need of something more light-hearted.
This poor sucker nearly got toaster-ovened by a malfunctioning tanning bed but managed to escape. Bare-ly.
There's got to be some comedic fodder in the fact the Running Room was next door to the tanning salon, but I can't quite put the pieces together.

He'll still fit right in in New Jersey. He just has to get some bling and slick his hair back.

The cause of the fire isn't yet known, but one staff member at the salon said they had problems with the bed malfunctioning in the past.

I couldn't get past this line. So, there had been problems, but you didn't fix them/replace it? "It's shorted out before, but you'll be fine..." Horrible.
And it doesn't sound like he was "overcooked", more in a ball of fire for a second or so. He's still pretty pale, and the article suggests that it was an isolated area of his body that was burnt.

I am terrified that several people in this thread have seen multiple Final Destination movies.

My mom was at that tanning salon a mere 1 hour before this happened. When she's back from her trip I'll have to ask her if she knew whether she was in the same bed or not.
Pretty scary stuff!
Check out this picture.

Not nearly as disturbing/hilarious as Sal Governale on the Howard Stern show yesterday explaining how he used to go to tanning salons and "pull the goalie"!

I've never used a tanning bed before, buty why does it say he was "locked" in? Do tanning beds normally lock you in?

Nor have I, but does one typically go into a tanning bed naked?

Oh, and Locke... if you're thinking about tanning after this thread, or MMF's post... It's traditional to bring atleast a sock. I've never tanned, but I knew a guy who forgot his sock at home. He'll never make that mistake again.

Okay, I'll admit that I have actually gone tanning before.
In fact it was about 6 weeks ago in preperation for going to Mexico for a wedding.
Normally I would have done the manly thing and just let myself burn, but I promised a very potentially angry bride (not mine of course) that I wouldn't be all red faced for the pictures.
Now that that background is out of the way I'll add this.
How the hell do you get locked in a tanning bed?
None of the ones in the place I went to had a lock, and it makes ZERO sense that anyone would manufacture a bed with a lock.
That's just silly.

"As far as my tanning career ... I don't think it's over," he said.
I guess in tough economic times you have to be resourceful to make a career for yourself and put up with anything.

What the hell kind of tanning bed has a lock on it? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard...
I thought they just created that stupid scenario in Final Destination...
