NTSB Covertly Funded Black Box Installations.

The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had covertly funded a project with U. S. automakers for the past five years. Automakers installed black box voice recorders in four-wheel drive pickup trucks in an effort to determine the circumstances in the last moments before a fatal crash.

They found that in 44 of the 50 states the recorded last words of 61.2 percent of male drivers in fatal crashes were "Oh shit!".

However, in Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Arkansas, Alabama, and Kentucky the last words spoken by 89.3 percent of male drivers were "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try something".
