  1. Smart College Person says:

    Hmmm… don’t they know the laws of physics? It looks like they came to a stop too fast which in turn caused the heavy cement block to slide forward. Yikes!

    http://stuffcollegepeoplelike.wordpress.com

  2. SCP – Does this really look like cement 2 u?
    Can’t you see it’s lime stone?

    You Dumb-Ass College Student, You…

  3. Sascha says:

    Shit happens!

  4. Arrica Lee says:

    WTH? Nice pic anyway. Who can survive in that?

  5. Asbduhas says:

    An object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an opposite and equal force.

    The driver obviously didn’t take physics in high school.

    • zawada says:

      Are you serious??? Trying to be all clever and show off your physics ’skills’. FAIL. Newtons laws of physics, you got two mixed up.

      An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force

      Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

      (These are simplified to the level that most people will have had in school-unlike our friend asbduhas)

      • IBkid says:

        Hey, smart one, in order for the object to be forced to a halt there has to be something stopping it, right? Well, that happens to be (only in the ‘perfect’ world where friction doesn’t exist) an OPPOSITE force. Think about it for a second, if the thing that’s supposed to stop this object is exerting force in the same direction then the object wouldn’t stop as it is unhindered. I think you’re just trying to sound smart yourself when, in reality, you don’t understand the concepts. Here, I’ll even toss in a cited quote for you: “an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.” (The Physics Classroom)

        I think there’s some punctuation errors, commas drive me nuts, but I suppose it is worlds better than what is usually seen.

        • anon says:

          Well, if you’re going to defend someone, it would help to read their quote, because if you did you would have noticed that they said “unless acted upon by an opposite and EQUAL force”, the equal being what zawada was refering to. He/she was saying that the object does not, in fact, need to be acted upon by an equal force to cease motion

        • boynamedsue says:

          also, and object in motion is not in itself a force.
          (ie. the back of my hand in motion is not a force, though it will exert one when it hits your face)

        • lol says:

          well, in MY physics class all we talked about was peeing in bottles and making them explode.. good times.

  6. grownANDsexy says:

    What is he looking for? Is he trying to figure out if he should still drive the truck?

  7. Jay says:

    Saw a truc like that in austria, the cabin was 1 foot thick only.

    Nasty !

  8. Raz0r says:

    That guys saying to himself
    “how hard would it be to steal this i wonder”

  9. “Well, at least we know the brakes work!”

  10. Alcari says:

    Why the heck would someone pack a huge piece of limestone in a shipping container anyway?

  11. conscious j says:

    what the hell are you going to ship it in, a xylophone?

  12. Ishii says:

    anyone notice that the doors on the container are on the wrong side?

    • Jim says:

      It is a shipping container, not a container truck. The container is taken from a train and placed onto the trailer, with no regard to the orientation, because it will be taken off when it reaches the destination.

      • zawada says:

        What your saying could well be true, i dont have any experience is this kinda thing, but I bet the truck driver wished they put it on the other way, the sheer weight may have caused it to bust through the container anyway, but it would put up much more of a fight then the locks on the doors.

  13. thankyou says:

    after reading through the comments, i was surprised nobody else but Ishii noticed that. double fail.

  14. Anonymous says:

    I have never seen a larger piece of feta cheese in my life.

  15. That is why it is important for everyone to wear seat belts. See what happens when you don’t buckle up everyone (and everything)?

    http://aphilosopher.wordpress.com

  16. LP says:

    What the fuck is that? A piece of cheese?

  17. wordsseldomsaid says:

    far out…

  18. ninjadoom says:

    Eep.
    x

  19. Sofar says:

    Shipping containers sometimes have doors on both sides, and if they don’t they aren’t always mounted with the doors facing rearward, it depends on whether the container is going to be dismounted before it’s unloaded.

  20. JustChris says:

    This would be a mega-fail in the eyes of ancient Egyptians.

  21. Lee says:

    this is the best demonstration of inertia evar.

  22. j00sh says:

    definitely an engineering/design fail.

  23. charly martel says:

    Failure to secure the load. Tsk, tsk, tsk….

  24. ORION MORRISON says:

    It obviously was a statue of David DIY Kit on the way to a guy named Mick-sumthin

  25. aghosh says:

    WOW, thats one hell of an accident, blog.thinkaloud.in, click on the google ads… please :)

  26. Angie says:

    I’ve had mornings like this after doing Sake bombs all night.

  27. Squally says:

    Wow…the Destructive power of Tofu

  28. Jay911 says:

    Is it even possible to secure something inside a seacan? Maybe a wooden framework I guess, but still, a few tons of rock aren’t gonna be held back by much…

    • FtEustisHousingMaintenance says:

      I can think of a way to do it…….but it is going to take a REALLY big can of Great Stuff to fillout that container… :-)

  29. sss says:

    just a heads up– that’s not limestone, feta cheese or cement– its the Fabric of Our Lives– a module of Cotton!

  30. Zanuha says:

    that truck has brakes….

    the huge block of stone doesnt.

  31. zman says:

    NICE PIX TO ALL U PPL zman out

  32. insectoman says:

    donkey punch win

  33. outphase84 says:

    call the rocksmith, i rocked out of truck!

  34. chrisp says:

    while the morons are still arguing whether its marble or concrete… i ll just shift ur attention to: why are there doors in the ‘back’ of the container…2. they should have been smashed and stuck onto the front car with the ‘thing’ lidding forward and all

  35. Nugzy says:

    A) Why the hell did they have the container the wrong way round?
    B) Why the hell were they carrying a big lump of rock in a container…without any packing to stop shifting?
    C) Never trust stevedores to do anything right…:p

  36. Shaun says:

    why is he even carrying a giant cement block around anyway?!!?

  37. Matty Stromz says:

    I can imagine telling this story to the repair shop.
    “Haha, so what were you carrying in that truck, a ton of bricks?”
    “Actually….”

  38. john says:

    lmfao at the donkey punch….definitely a comment win!

  39. SchmittyBangBang says:

    who the hell put the rock on a skateboard?
