I laughed and crinched at the same time. It looked like he hit his head pretty good. :(

:eek: I actually saw something like thar once... a ~20" wheel from an armored car came off on the freeway, went up and over a 10' fence and bushes, then rolled down the street and into a bush...

Ouch!:eek:

When I was just out of high school, I was working at a truck shop. One day I was told to go take that truck back to the customer. I got about a half mile from the shop and the front left side of the truck dropped. I saw the wheel rolling next to the truck, then veer into oncoming traffic, miss every car and bounce up the curb and hit a building.

I walked to a pay phone, called the shop and asked "Are you sure that Jim had finished with this truck?"

That video is starting to make its rounds over the internet. It's not a fake and the guy in the vid was taken to the hospital with a broken leg. Scary situation but luckily the attendant came to his aid right away and put the gas nozzle back into its holder (would have been an even more dangerous situation if she hadn't).

. . . She put the nozzle away and then left him alone? She should have at least bent down to see how he was doing before running off to call 911, I'm assuming that's where she went to?
