Driver Discovers New Way To Wheelie Dump Truck |
|
We have to hand it to Freddie Mitchell
of Hartford, Connecticut for inadvertently discovered a new way to
wheelie dump trucks: by leaving their beds raised then ramming overhead
signs at highway speeds.
Mitchell, 62-years young,
pulled out of a roadside construction site along I-84 with is bed fully
raised in "dump" mode. Accelerating hard for 3/4 of a mile, he made
contact with the sign for Exit 63 at highway speed. The impact lifted
the truck's cab 20-feet into the air for a truly epic wheelie, but
because the sign failed to give way, Mitchell was then stuck in an
extremely precarious position.
It took nearly an hour for Mitchell's support crew/local emergency
workers to brace the truck against it falling and then lift him down
with a cherry picker. Local commuters were thrilled to witness such a
daring spectacle.
