Lese das mal ich habe nachher gesehen das ist 2mal passiert!

After another car indicated the same thing, Elvis realised something was wrong. By that time, the whole rear of the car was ablaze. A bus stop by and all the passengers tired to help but there was nothing anyone could do. Elvis fought the fire until someone pulled him away just before the gas tank blew up. Hitchhiking to the next town Elvis hired a private plane to take him on to his show. That day Lady-Luck was on Elvis' side. As the plane landed a tornado hit the town and tore up most of the other planes at the airport. It was a heartbroken Elvis who returned to Memphis. All he could do for days was walk around repeating, "Man I loved that car." Elvis replacement car became the now famous pink Cadillac that he bought for his mother. When on his first television interview Wink Martindale asked why he had so many cars, Elvis got bashful and stammered, "You might say cars are my hobby."
