Man killed while dancing on top of 18-wheeler may have been filming himself


What a dumbazz " ! I guess he didn't realize that the signs on every bridge giving the clearance height, did not include a man standing on it.

I hope he was a dumbocrat

Some things have no reasonable explanation. We seem to be winning the war against idiots, not because we've done enough but, due to their own stupid actions.
With just a few more truckloads of illegal aliens carrying drugs, we may lose a lot more of these idiots. Yeah, open borders are such a good idea.

13'6" trailer and 15'0" bridge - and he (she,it?) was wearing a backpack.

I'll bet his school taught him all about 1619 but nothing about arithmetic.

I stopped under this bridge many years ago because I had a load of plywood and it looked like rain ahead. My load was only about 12' high but I had to crawl along the top to spread my tarps. An AZDPS officer pulled along side, I looked at him, he looked at me, shook his head and drove away.

That dna combination had very little probability of survival, destined for, uh... termination.
The problem, apparently, is an iq deficit.
Not evolved enough to have a self preservation motivator gland, barely able to tie shoelaces.
Stumbling around the shop floor thinking about scratching his gonads, not about the molten iron crucible, incandescent, a few feet away.
' Gee, he was the first one to fall in ! '
' We never thought about a guardrail there, because the danger was brilliantly lit up by molten iron. '
Phhiittt !
200 lbs of fat instantly vaporized by 800 tons of iron.
' The sign clearly stated, DANGER ! '
Illiterates have problems in life, like, stupid is as stupid does.
Like, surfing transport trailers.
Doh !

Velcro shoes, the only reference I can remember.
Saw the flick live on the big screen back then, awestruck.

Less Than 2500 feet to the Tuam St bridge, as we pass beneath Gray St., southbound.
36 mph = 52.8 ft / sec
2500 feet / ( 52.8 ft / sec ) = 48 seconds to eternity.


A video of the What, for posterity, the Where

That moment you realize, that it's not like in the movies.
40+ mph + 14 ft high off the pavement + guardrail = no-brainer
~ doh !
