They can if they die in flight at height and fall to the ground.

The pigeon wasn't moving, heavens no.

It had been brought up in a prosperous area and received a good pigeon education, but when it went to pigeon university, it became disillusioned and joined an extremist pigeon religious group advocating holy war against all cars. To be fair, it was probably brainwashed by the racing pigeons, with their "devil may care" attitude and fast wings.

I was unlucky in the fact that this particular extremist pigeon was colour blind, short sighted and very dislexic. He wanted to prove a point and decided to become a martyr to the cause by blowing up a symbol of capitalism, a Ferrari Enzo.

Understandably, He mistook my 51 plate black Octavia VRS for an Enzo, strapped himself into what he considerred to be a ****load of C4, and secreted himself behind the rather handsome grille of my car, attaching the detonator to the VRS badge.

The rest is history. I was late for work. No rozzers about, firm pressure to the right pedal maintaining position in the 3rd lane of the M18, and

BANG! The somewhat misguided extremist pigeon etched his place in history...

Sorry to hear about the resulting damage though!

I hope there are no fundamentalist extremists who frequent this forum! Can you imagine if they took to training pidgeons to home in suicide bomber style into targets...

The extremist pigeons have now disbanded after this incident,

One of the suicide pigeons was recognised by his ankle tag and they've been landed with a massive insurance bill. they've now gone back to 5hitting on cars after they've just been washed....
