[The Helper]

A life-sized man and teddy bear perched atop a billboard on Interstate 95 are prompting alarmed drivers to dial 911.

Concerned motorists who spotted the pajama-clad male mannequin and the teddy bear on top of a Connecticut billboard worried that the odd pair was real and was in danger of toppling over.

The billboard is an ad for overnight test drive being hawked by BMW of Bridgeport, Conn. The figures were lifted to the top of the billboard about two months ago, the Associated Press reported.

Well...

Oh my god... and to think, just a few moments ago I was supporting such catastrophes!

And apparently no one picked up on what I meant... Russia doesn't use 911. They have 112 I think. I guess that was a little ambiguous though.
