Those Slapstick Germans!

There is a town in Germany named Langenselbold near Frankfurt where I used to visit my daughter.

A beautiful place, not unlike parts of the upper midwest.

I decided to follow “Stadt Langenselbold” on Facebook a few weeks ago, and this picture was on it.

I don’t read German, so I have no idea what the captions said.

I do understand the helmet however.
