Christmas Decoration Fail
A zealous Christmas decorator caused a storm of trouble with his decorations after police and passersby thought a dummy that was left clinging to his roof with a ladder on the ground below, was a real man struggling for help. Spoiler:
Source I thought it was funny

Yeah, it's funny until somebody hangs themselves outdoors around Halloween and the body is ignored for a few days while everybody assumes it is a decoration.
(Well, ok, that is still funny, but not the kind you laugh about on the evening news.) |

The word "TREK" looks photoshopped.
...and I think the dummy display is hilarious. Are people dumb enough not to realise that it's not moving, kicking or screaming for help ? "Oh, maybe he passed out and he's locked there by the amazing power of his finger-muscles".

That's just how you count using Roman numerals in Spanish.
One, two, three, four, five, trek. |

And there have been several prominent stories here in the last few years of bodies being ignored because people assumed they were dummies (in a recent one an old woman had a heart attack sitting out on her balcony. Died leaning against her railing. She was there a couple days.) |

I think the dummy hanging off the roof is hilarious. I would love to do that!
