While I am not a hillbilly, my redneck ancestry dates back to some of the finest hillbillies and moonshiners. My cousin went to school one day and other boys were showing off pennies that had been flattened by a train. So, he decided he too wanted to have one as a keepsake. So that afternoon he stood on the tracks holding his penny waiting all day for the train….. finally, it came. He was flattened but the penny was found in PERFECT condition 100 yards away. My uncle did figure out how to do it and he was able to get one flattened real nice, but lost a hand doing it.
