These should wake you up...

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Check out the crash vids. They come at you fast.

Vid #6 is crazy. Amazingly, nobody was killed.

The next to last one is freaky, too. I'm still trying to figure out what caused it.

Possibly NSFW due to some language.

The one where the 18-Wheeler careens across 4 lanes of traffic on the LIE still makes me piss my pants.

Yes, that's a bad one. There are other vids of that crash floating around.

I gathered a bit of info about it...

The black car is an Audi. It got pinned underneath the trailer and also hit by the bus, where the camera was mounted.

Nobody was killed. The guy driving the car "walked" away with brusies and a herniated disc. A testament to European safety engineering...

The truck driver was charged with faulty equipment. I think a bald tire blew out and he lost control.
