Yep! This and the LASIK scene still haunt me
For some reason I thought that was a really big log on its way to collide with the truck from the side
My Dad’s friend in college had this happen, except with a plumbing truck and pipe, and it decapitated his wife and daughter.
On a trip to the US on a road trip from Detroit to Louisiana, I think it was like Kentucky or Mississippi, I had a truck in front of me lose a star picket off the tray and it flew past my widescreen to the left, missing me by about a foot.
Could not stop thinking about that video for days.
I always wondered why he wouldn’t sit behind those trucks, then one year he finally told me. Really tragic. I don’t know how his friend actually overcame that, or if he did, they fell out of touch, but that would ruin me. On so many levels. I don’t know that I would drive a car again, at the same time, I live in the US, how do you not? lol but that’s a rant for another day.
The final destination scene was one thing but do you all remember that real video where it was I think a brick that just obliterates one of the occupants, you don’t see much but you hear the reaction from the other passenger and it fucking haunts you for years.
At least it isn’t a brick.
I know exactly what this is referencing and I’ve never watched the clip. The comments at the time were enough to properly disturb me.
Good choice, that’s a video that’s been burnt in my mind for 15 years or however old it is…I feel like that was a rotten.com special back in the day
