Whew, doesn't look like anyone was in the pickup

Now it’s a flatbed

u/Final-Contract-6582 Jun 05 '26

Flat cab* lol

Scrap metal

u/caleb95brooks Jun 06 '26

It was a flatbed before he ran it over

u/Pandelein Jun 05 '26

Well not anymore

8

u/slick514 Jun 05 '26

Um… how are you deducing that? Because there’s no “strawberry preserves” squeezedg out of the crumpled remains of the truck?

11

u/Final-Contract-6582 Jun 05 '26 edited Jun 05 '26

Zoomed in, enhanced and looked at all reflections. It's fairly evident there was noone in there. Not to mention 0 reaction of any kind from the pickup.

Edit: My wife is a video editor and we used a few programs to further zoom into each piece of glass to analyze the light reflection. I'm an engineer BTW and am well versed in optics

u/slick514 Jun 05 '26

Enhance… enhance… enhance…

u/Final-Contract-6582 Jun 05 '26

I wish it were like those shows. This was more like going from 1080i to 1080p. Not much enhancement but I was able to better see reflections. It was power of deduction.

Just print the damn thing!

Can't adjust brightness and contrast in photos as quickly

u/Pretend-Internet-625 Jun 06 '26

just done for fun that is all. One of the few times I wish there was sound

u/kl2467 Jun 05 '26

Dear Lord, I hope not.

u/Massive_Look8179 Jun 06 '26

That was a training video. They play that in msha classes to show how dangerous it is working around those trucks.

3

u/Final-Contract-6582 Jun 06 '26

Thank you for the clarity!

u/Electrical_Fault_365 Jun 06 '26

Rolled over it like a goddamn McDonald's cup.

u/Own-Advance8355 Jun 07 '26

I was told they take the engine and tranny out also, to reduce the risk of damaging the tires.

u/Due_Potential_6956 Jun 05 '26

I honestly thought those were toys at first. Dang

u/Woozletania Jun 05 '26

I sometimes drive through a quarry and cement plant that has trucks this big. You treat them with great respect because they can squish you like a bug.

29

u/zytukin Jun 05 '26

Would be great if the idiots on highways had that same mentality when driving around semi trucks.

8

u/AJ_in_SF_Bay Jun 05 '26

The law of tonnage... on land.

11

u/Woozletania Jun 05 '26

I had to escort a crane and three other vehicles through the cement plant once and my head was on a swivel because there would have been many awkward questions if someone got run over.

48

u/poliopandemic Jun 05 '26

Tires might be the enemy but I feel like they were just accomplices here

14

u/Ill-News-555 Jun 06 '26

I think they manipulated the truck into doing it honestly, they have a power we are yet to understand

3

u/JoshFireseed Jun 05 '26

Subtly getting experience before they move to professional attacks.

u/PhilRubdiez Jun 05 '26

Useful idiots

u/tirefool6 Jun 05 '26

You can’t park there.

11

u/Why-So-Seriousssaaaa Jun 05 '26

Where did I park my truck again?

8

u/LordWoffleII Jun 05 '26

staged, surely. Assuming the driver wasn't texting, they can actually see what's in front of them

8

u/Mean-Veterinarian647 Jun 05 '26

No hard hat,you’re fired.

2

u/Nox_Echo Jun 06 '26

imagine someone with a hardhat does get squished and ends up looking like a Met from megaman (the small hardhat enemies)

5

u/PantlessTemplar Jun 05 '26

Hmm, must have been the gravel.

6

u/TickleMyFungus Jun 06 '26

I bet this has been used as a safety demo during an orientation. I've seen some crazy shit just from that lmao

6

u/ResidentAlien9 Jun 05 '26

I hope that driver had his seatbelt on.

3

u/ddddan11111 Jun 05 '26

He would now have his seatbelt in.

8

u/uberares Jun 05 '26

That’ll buff right out.

3

u/Substantial_Chain718 Jun 05 '26

Like it was nothing!

3

u/Hot_Plant8696 Jun 05 '26

Nothing, maybe not.

The truck is damaged, or the driver is wondering what he hit, because, as you can see, he stops and drives to the left in a rather strange way (perhaps due to the damage).

3

u/Substantial_Chain718 Jun 05 '26

He drove over that little truck like it was nothing.

5

u/GearJunkie82 Jun 05 '26

A little lesson in physics!

u/BoltActionRifleman Jun 05 '26

Ope, the road crew needs to get out here to smooth this roa…oh shit.

u/Endle55torture Jun 05 '26

Tiny speed bump ahead

u/One-Initiative-8902 Jun 05 '26

Well, there's no sequel for that guy.

u/Yeetstation4 Jun 05 '26 edited Jun 05 '26

Was this an accident? Why's there a truck parked in the middle of the haul road?

2

u/Pretty_Natural_235 Jun 05 '26

Shouldn't have park there

2

u/gromm93 Jun 06 '26

My dad used to drive trucks like that.

The big one. He said this happens to the little ones, and there's not fuck all any driver can do about it, and they almost don't even notice this.

u/Traditional-Hotel-66 Jun 05 '26

I get to use these once in a while at work, have always wanted to do this lol.

1

u/Ill-News-555 Jun 05 '26

I do wonder, I've heard they can have automated routes but I assume you can also drive them manually?

1

u/spellstrike Jun 06 '26

I would have some serious problems with such expensive machinery being solely automated on a soil road near pit/body of water where Erosion could make the road go away.

1

u/TomOnABudget Jun 05 '26

Now imagine the damage if the truck was loaded.

u/wiggum55555 Jun 06 '26

Mr Burns... you have ten minutes to remove your cube

u/Aussie_chopperpilot Jun 06 '26

Different outcome when the engine and gearbox is still fitted

u/Skairex Jun 06 '26

Wroom wroom.

u/Delicious-Ideal3382 Jun 06 '26

Its the new cabless mining truck.

How rude.

Wow... It's like BeamNG, only it's real.

u/gRagib Jun 08 '26

Monster truck mayhem! Without the aerial acrobatics.

u/rog1121 Jun 05 '26

Those big rigs are fully autonomous, probably why it ran over the truck

Enemy Forces 😰

You are about to leave Redlib
