In the late 50's, I remember my dad telling me this story. My dad was one of those guys who would take his car into a repair shop and then hang around watching what the mechanic was doing. He really wasn't a busy body, it's just that he liked to "watch" (usually at close range). He knew everyone well at this one particular place and was friends with the owner and the staff etc. but one day he became a bit too annoying and got a bit to close during a tune up on his car. The mechanic rapped the old man's knuckles with a wrench and told him to step back and let him work, sort of a scary situation apparently. That night, the mechanic and his wife had a bit of a set-to during a drinking session at home and the guy put her out of her misery with a whisky bottle over the head, went to jail for a few years on a manslaughter charge. My dad probably avoided getting too close to mechanics after that little incident.
