Awesome vid of a truck and a concrete barrier.

I guess its a demonstration of a truck proof barrier to prevent car bombs and such getting too close to buildings. That is one hell of a crash and a very effective barrier.

LewisCouch 03-26-2004 08:55 PM

Very impressive barrier. I wonder how it performs with explosives involved.

Ilow 03-26-2004 08:56 PM

If I was in the barrier market, i'd get me some of those!

CamaroRS1967 03-27-2004 09:07 AM

Wow, what a barrier. And such a violent crash! I wonder what they did to make these barriers so much stronger?

Moonduck 03-27-2004 10:17 AM

Wow.

I work in the collision repair industry, and have seen what happens to vehicles and structures when hit bit a heavy truck like that. That wall is unsupported. Wow.

Engineering marvel.

Scorps 03-27-2004 12:37 PM

WOW!

that truck had to going a good 80mph if not more..damn strong barrier!:eek:

KirStang 03-27-2004 10:12 PM

omg, scary...

That truck must have been going fast. I wonder if anyone would have survived.

The company slogan, "We build 'em stronger, so you die, and don't have to suffer."

So if it is indeed an intentional crash done in order to test a barrier, that means the truck was remote-controlled, and hence without a driver (ph34r my reasoning skills). That takes away from the whole drama of it all. Meh.

Asuka{eve} 04-05-2004 09:31 PM

that is amazing... man i expected the truck to go through!!! what is that wall made out of???

what you think they would make someone drive the truck into the wall?

The intentional nature of the crash wasn't obvious at first. There was a distinct possibility that a camera was rolling as an unfortunate driver crashed accidentally into a wall. (Yes, it does happen. Ever see Real TV on Spike?). However, after reading the comments, I realized that the crash didn't involve a driver and was intended as a test for a barrier.

absorbentishe 04-06-2004 10:59 AM

Holy crap! I remember seeing a show about this, testing the strenghts of barriers. Something after 9/11, for security around embassies, and gov't buildings, etc.

Confederate 04-06-2004 03:49 PM

I've been showing this clip to all my friends, I am impressed every time i see it.

BoomTruck 04-06-2004 09:12 PM

Damn..... that's one way to FUBAR a perfectly good Louisville.....

Oh ya Real TV, that would be crazy if there was someone in there driving that truck!
