We had gone to pick his mom up from his Sisters and on the way home the tire was low, due to all the stuff his mom loaded in the car to bring home. We stopped at a station to get air.  He was pumping the air and all of a sudden we heard a huge explosion and looked out the window. He was standing there stunned with white powder all over him. His hair had been blown back and looked gray. He started hitting his ear trying to get past the ringing in them. He had put so much air in the tire that it blew up. Needless to say he had to buy another tire and we headed home. Laughing all the way home.
