Dude Rents A Bull Dozer And Knocks Down His House Without Telling His Wife
NBC New York – A New York man who rented a bulldozer from a local construction company and demolished the house that he lived in with his wife, whose name is on the deed and who did not know about the razing, told NBC 4 New York he did it because it was dilapidated and needed to come down. The foundation of his Middletown home was crumbling from years of disrepair, 48-year-old James Rhein said Tuesday afternoon, and he tried to get a permit to demolish it himself Monday but couldn’t because the office he needed to visit was closed due to the federal holiday. “So I took it down, that’s it,” said Rhein, who was arrested Monday in the process of demolishing his home. Police said he was knocking the single-family house to the ground with an excavator and tossing the debris in Dumpsters when they arrived; they said he didn’t try to run and was cooperative. Rhein’s wife is the legal owner of the home. She was not there when it was razed and police said she had no idea it was happening. Rhein said he tried to call her before beginning the demolition but she didn’t pick up her phone; all items left in the home when it was destroyed were replaceable, he said. Neighbor Darryl Horn said Rhein’s wife drove up to find her home reduced to rubble. “She was very upset. She was in the middle of the road screaming, ‘her house, what happened to her house?'” said Horn. Rhein admitted to NBC 4 New York his wife was distraught initially. “But now she’s over it,” Rhein said. “We’re good. I’m a good husband, what can I tell you?”
This guy is an absolute legend. Like Hero Status. Just rented a bull dozer and knocked down his own house with all his wife’s shit inside of it while she was running errands. Ran out to grab bread and milk and came home to an empty lot where your house used to be. Fuck a permit, fuck warning, fuck all of my wife’s wordly belongings. The house needed to come down. End of story.
This one goes out to every dude with a girlfriend or wife who wouldnt listen to him. Every dude who’s ever dealt with a chick thinking shes always right. Every guy who’s ever waited for a chick who took forever to get ready or get something done. This is a metaphorical bull dozing. Every guy at one point or another has wanted to rent a bull doze and just raze his wife’s existence. Jimmy Rhein just did it in real life.
