Plot
He was born with all his fingers and toes, he wasn't dropped on his head as a baby, but for reasons even his parents can't fathom, Benny grew up to be a total asshole. Benny was a man who is 26 going on 14 who loved to play pranks on his neighbors, whether it was putting sugar in the gas tank of someone's car or spreading a neighbor's front porch with oil. He wanted to cause a wreck by flashing a mirror at people who dare to drive down his street. He blasted one car with the mirror and the car hit the fire hydrant. Benny got his wish, but eventually got what was coming to him; the hydrant flies towards Benny and hits him in the head very hard, crushing his skull, causing death within seconds and sending this neighbourhood punk prankster to the hell where he belongs.

Trivia
- In 2007, Humberto Hernandez, who's a resident in Oakland, California, was killed after being struck in the face by an airborne fire hydrant while walking. A passing car had struck the fire hydrant and the water pressure shot the hydrant at Hernandez with enough force to kill him. Link: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fire-plugged/
