I love this video, I really do. In case you missed it on the news, it is a video of a highway in Turkey with a pretty amazing crash and escape all rolled into one!

At first glance, you obviously notice that truck seems to have its dumper raised up at almost 90 degrees – an unusual position for something hurtling down the highway. Then you notice the inevitable crash into the bridge, the absolute decimation it causes and so on.

But look more closely and you’ll see that there was a man on that bridge, who for whatever reason did not decide to run like hell the minute he saw the truck coming. No, this man decided to stand his ground as if he was some kind of titanium-bodied Terminator and let the truck decimate the bridge around him. Amazing thing? That guy survived with minor injuries.

Now, imagine yourself in his position. Need a fresh pair of trousers?
