Did that little plastic gas flap pull the hose off the pump? I assume she left the nozzle in the car but the nozzle is laying on the ground.

Looks like she left the gas flap open and it got caught on the hose. That's amazing if that plastic is actually that strong.

It looks like that's what happened. How did she manage that?

I think I might have to call BS on this one. I find it very hard to believe that our little plastic gas cap can pull a pressurized fuel hose out of a pump at the station without first being ripped off or the hose itself just slipping off and around the door.

The hose is not hard to pull off from the pump to prevent damage to the pump. I just posted it because whoever this is made one of my favorite websites.

Oh I'm not saying it ain't funny cause it is, especially her facial expression. Just found it a bit hard to believe. But hey, I'm not about to run out and try it for myself lol.
