I dunno about that, I reckon there was a couple toe tags issued for that one.

May have been, but IF he was still alive that truck missed landing on him by a gnats eyelash.

The truck is obviously defective and should have been recalled.  ;)

What is really stupid is that is legal in Arizona, but if the driver or passenger isn't wearing a seat belt that isn't! I see dozens of pickups on the freeway every day with people riding in the back. This guy was screwing around, but in many cases just having to slam on the brakes can cause what was in the video to take place. Mexican landscapers are famous for this, along with the stucco mixing machine coupled to the back with 4 inches of hardened concrete that breaks off in chunks after hitting every bump, and the wobbling, out of balance wheel to go along with it.   Bill T.

Years back, an old Chevy pick-up with a camper shell on the bed did a number like that going down I-75. Twenty-seven (yes, 27) occupants (all Hispanic) were on board. I think it was something like 9 killed and most of the rest very seriously injured.

Nice pick up (no not the vehicle  ;D ) looked at it again and hit pause a few times the impact he hit the ground I recon he was cactus, also the driver didnt look too healthy either
