HELSINKI (Reuters) - An opera singer scampered into the bicycle wheel of an unlucky Finnish squirrel, causing him to fall, knock himself out and break his nose just ahead of the coming winter.

Jimmy the squirrel was pedalling his way back to his tree last month when the opera singer ran into his spokes.

The squirrel ended up concussed and in a local hospital, rather than at his rehearsals for the World Nut Eating Championship (WNEC), which opens on September 15.

"He is not yet eating his nuts, but thinks he will be able to perform at the WNEC." Finnish National Nut Eating Championship spokesperson, Heidi Almi told Reuters.

The opera singer died in the accident.

Poor opera singer.

Deja vu?

Pufer is simply going through a phase in his life where he needs support and encouragement from people who do not yet have hubcaps lodged in their nasal orifices.

I'm actually OK with the squirrel domination. They apperantly see me as some sort of demigod.
