  2. Bridge, meet truck. Truck, meet bridge.

    I aint afraid of no ghost
    *cue theme tune*

  4. Teff7 says:

    I see white again…

  5. Powered by JUDY!! Woo hoo!

  6. Judy says:

    Powered by … me? Wow!

  7. That is impressive failure right there.

  8. Mookie says:

    This is why I don’t drive a truck. Well, one of the reasons.

  9. chewed unicorns says:

    D:

  10. Soulcrun says:

    Can you guys react normal?

  11. lol says:

    i loled

  12. Miranda says:

    what are the people in the car saying? they seem remarkably apathetic.

  13. Chaz_Festerbottom says:

    …and someone happened to randomly catch this on video after just taping that truck traveling down the highway for the past 4 hours… (-_-)

  14. bugman says:

    Something similar happened in San Diego a year ago. The truck’s hydraulic lift was up and everyone was trying to tell the driver, but he was an idiot. Lucky for him he smashed one of those huge overhead freeway signs, and not a friggin’ overpass!

    • Noconspiracy says:

      You’d think with so many idiots behind the wheel, they would make you take in IQ test before a driving test.

    • ZombieApocalypse says:

      I can’t believe this happens this often – that truck would drive horribly with the back up like that, wouldn’t it? Besides, don’t these drivers ever look in their mirrors?
      “Hmm, I thought the box back there laid down on the back of the truck, not stood up like that. Oh well, maybe I just never noticed before.”

  15. buba says:

    buba was here.

  16. PoodleGroomer says:

    A truck went through a downtown with the bed up and caught the network optical fiber that nationally authenticated cell phone accounts and allowed them to connect and dial.

  17. HellHathNoFury says:

    Holy craps! All funny comments aside, I can only imagine how it would have turned out during heavy traffic.

  18. Auchrain says:

    What’s this?

  19. LAPowerball says:

    lol… a shame it’s on low quality.

  20. Noconspiracy says:

    *SNIFF*
    Ahh, the smell of a fresh fail in the morning. . .

  21. Achwel says:

    Let me try to reconstruct the whole video with my own, wisely picked words: Guy shoots a video because he knows that something WILL go wrong, everything is dead silent, BANG, follows the truck with the camera and laughs a little evil laughter. Nice one.

  22. sillysot says:

    It appears that it’s the driver of the car, not the passenger, who is videotaping, which would make this a double fail…

  23. fpage77 says:

    How much dumbass do you have to be to be driving at highway speeds with your dump up.

  24. blerg says:

    Yay for not having to sit through an “Overpass Win” moment

  25. Aja says:

    Remember, Enraha!

  26. omg² says:

    seems to me like the ultimative fail!

  27. Smoomba says:

    Well, at least we can be relatively sure that wasn’t faked.

  28. I'm afraid my youtube doesn't work right now. I believe I have figured out what happens here. A dump truck has the back up and runs into a bridge, right?

  29. Chris says:

    Hypercritical fail: While there are places where parallel highway lanes travel in the same direction. Unless this was one of them, someone was driving the wrong way.

  30. sirmaxx says:

    yeah truck driver/operator fail but i also think its a “hey, lets be considerate and try to get this poor clueless driver’s attention. maybe he’ll notice us yelling at him and notice what’s wrong. so he’ll pull over before he goes under the underpass and distroys his rig and possibly looses his job because were not a couple of assholes with a camrea and laugh at other people’s expense.” fail.

    • ZombieApocalypse says:

      I’m dead and I’ve never driven a truck like that, but I can guarantee you I would have noticed something was wrong long before reaching the highway. That truck’s trailer would have been rather top heavy with it’s box upright like that and if you glanced at the mirrors even once you would have likely noticed it looked … wrong. “Hey, isn’t that box supposed to be laying down, not standing up like that?”
      .
      With all that in mind, tell us again how you would have made a total fool of yourself trying to get this putz to acknowledge reality on the highway at 60 MPH when the rest of us were busy laughing our dead heads off!

      • Sparky, Attention Whore/One-Liner Feeder/Lemming/Sniffer of Crayola™ Crayons/¿ı ɯɐ ǝɹǝɥʍ says:

        I’m among the living dead and I’ve never not driven a truck like a different type than that, but I can’t guarantee anyone that I wouldn’t have been oblivious to the fact that nothing was right shortly after reaching the highway. That truck’s trailer wouldn’t have been rather bottom heavy with its box down like it wasn’t and if I didn’t glance at the mirrors several times I would have likely ignored that it looked…correct. “Hey, isn’t that box supposed to be upright, instead of not laying down like it isn’t?”

        .
        With all that set aside, tell us again how I would have made a total fool out of me not trying to get this putz to ignore reality on the side road at 35 MPH when I was idle crying my fool elbow off!

        • Avis says:

          Do you know how much it physically hurt to read that?

          • Blog Ninja (Blogmonster) says:

            I thought it was hilarious. Sparky, you rule!

            • Sparky, Attention Whore/One-Liner Feeder/Lemming/Sniffer of Crayola™ Crayons/¿ı ɯɐ ǝɹǝɥʍ says:

              Ninja: Thanks, glad you liked!
              Avis: Sorry; my fingers wouldn’t stop.

              *realizes that, while some may like, others are being caused pain. Retires to bed for the evening for the overall benefit of the “EFBE-dotto” community.*

  31. ChiaPet says:

    So, what’s the sign that slips past at 11 seconds? Snakes in the road??

    • ZombieApocalypse says:

      If you can read this, you’re about to be featured on failblog!
      :-D

    • NotBornEveryMinute says:

      “Neither of those two”

    • BadTazte says:

      It says:
      “Speed limit 60 kilometres per hour” (the upper sign.. red circle with a 60 in it)
      The other sign says something about two streetlanes in the way the car is driving, while 3 streetlanes in the other way. The line below the arrows is not readable. It states the distance until this sign takes effect, OR how long this sign is in effect.

      The video was taken in either germay or austria, one of the people you are hearing sais shortly bevor the crash “der reisst die Brücke ein”, if I get this right.

      I would say the car is on the Autobahn, but on a construction zone…

  32. MADCAT says:

    Those guys videotaping sure are a bunch of idiots!

  33. Luke says:

    That’s in Romania. A similar event (same type of vehicle making the exactly same mistake) killed a few people when the bridge (another bridge) felt on the next car.

  34. all you truckers should throw your bird up high in the sky on abirdinthesky.com

  35. Styles says:

    Why are they traveling the same direction… on the other side of the highway?

  36. Jay says:

    That happened near where I live. A section of the overpass did come down and landed on the hood of the car traveling behind the truck.
    Luckily no one was killed.

  37. Squeal says:

    Don’t those trucks have a light or an alarm telling the stupid driver the “bed” or whatever that part is called…is UP?
    Hello, technology is your friend!!
    I bet I could make a lot of money if I INVENTED that… ;-)

  38. stix213 says:

    Whoops!

  39. Carlos MV says:

    WTF

  40. Franck says:

    Haha that evil laugh xD +5

  41. kwstas says:

    LOL the fail is that u guys actually are so uninformed that u still consider this a fail, this is a bridge crash test and it is done all the time for new bridges, omg , failblog members FAIL !

  42. Stabbin says:

    Crappy camera win!

  43. alex says:

    That’s not funny at all. A similar accident happened in my country a few months ago, only the bridge was a light people-only bridge. And it collapsed over the cars below, killing a lot of people. So i can’t laugh when i see this, and i can’t understand how the people filming this can. This is a serious accident and they are lucky that the only damage was to the rig, because if the bridge failed, they would have been among the victims for sure.

  44. HamatoKameko says:

    Quick, what’s the fastest way to total a rollback?

  45. HanZio says:

    OMFG that looked cool! and yet it could have looked a little more extreme if he weren’t wearing a seatbelt

  46. Franck says:

    LOL, i donbt want to drive in my car behind that thing xD LOL

  47. Franck says:

    Alex, you just whine about nothing, no people were ingured here.

  48. Jaz says:

    It’s in Germany 100% as they speak german – (duh) without austrian accent but rather a local accent of the south-western part of Germany. I live there

  49. steve brown says:

    I don’t drive so correct moi, but shouldn’t one of these drivers have been going the other way down the road? I mean, there’s a barrier in between the two vehicles so like doesn’t that mean one lot of traffic should be going in the opposite direction? So is this, like fake?

  50. arrested developement says:

    what assholes they could at least pretend to try and warn him

  51. Kevin says:

    I was in the car driving to six flags when this happened, I think I was like one car ahead of the guy taking this video… :O
