If you've ever wondered what it would look like if an old lady plowed a Camry into a supermarket, you won't believe what YouTube has in store for you.


The video after the jump was taken at a Palm Coast Publix store last Saturday. In it, you'll see a bunch of people sitting around, doing whatever it is people who sit around at grocery stores do. And then 76-year-old Thelma Wagenhoffer makes a damned mess.


So you know what to expect, you'll be cringing for 33 seconds, then go "ughhh" when Wagenhoffer smashes through exit doors, nine grownups, and a baby.

Before you freak out, know that no one involved died -- three of the victims (all older than 80) were still hospitalized Tuesday, but everyone else is OK, and the baby in the stroller received only a bump on the head, according to Daytona Beach News-Journal, which has the whole story, including pending charges against Wagenhoffer for -- get this -- careless driving.
