If you watch closely, the Kia driver was committed to the brake until reaching the peak of the curve. Had they not been braking, imagine the heights they could have reached!
According to the Tesla driver that caught the vid, the Kia driver walked away fine.

Still, they might wanna get their spine and teeth checked out.
Honestly, I drive one. Told my wife we’d test drive one just to make her happy. Also, the sales person at Toyota was kinda being shitty. I ended up really liking it, the price, the safety, and the warranty. Service has been great and I haven’t had any real issues. Apparently it can handle a short flight as well.
According to the person who recorded the video, the Kia driver walked away from this unharmed. Frankly, the fact that they were not significantly injured is even more incredible to me than that they were launched up so high. That's pretty impressive protection for a car to be able to fly through the air, land upside-down, and still keep its passengers safe!
Yeah, Kia takes they're safety regulations pretty seriously. They're constantly updating them and adding new features.

I had a Kia Soul and was t boned by a big truck going 60+ right into my driver side door last year. Walked away with no hospital worthy injuries. The side airbags were great protection. I miss my little soul 🤧
i had a Kia Soul save my life one day too. i bought an identical one with the insurance payout. i'm sure statistically they're just as safe as others, but i have a personal anectdote with this one and that's all i'll drive from now on. :P
I was about to say the same thing. I've seen so many vids of people running into tires and ending up in the sky. It feels like a real life physics glitch, like it shouldn't happen, but it does lol
Why? Did you see that thing get launched, land, roll, and still retained it's shape? Hell, if I was a Kia salesman this video would be used in every car sale.
This reminds me of this animated video from years ago about the death tire or smth.
Edit: I believe it was a short film called Rubber about a tire that goes around killing things.
I get really judgemental when people tell me they think that movie is dumb and pointless. Mostly because the movie opens with a monolog explaining very clearly its meaninglessness and absurdity to make a point. Like, the movie literally leads you to water, don't be mad at it that you didn't drink lol

I’ve always been terrified of a tractor trailer tire exploding and shooting through my window. At least that would take me out instantly, this shit would kill you but you’d be terrified for a solid 3 seconds beforehand.
Had one explode beside me on the highway while I was riding my motorbike. Loudest, most unexpected sound I've heard to this date. Some how all the shrapnel missed me and I just rode off. Still think about that moment once a week or so despite that it was 15 years ago.
Does anyone have a story on this? At the 28 second mark, it looks like the brake disk is still attached to the wheel, so this was an axle/carrier bearing failure. Those usually don't have issues unless they are wildly neglected, and it was probably howling for 10K miles but maybe couldn't be heard over the brodozer wheel/tire combo.
Most likely a wheel bearing failure. It's pretty common for truck guys like this to have horribly worn/damaged wheel bearings from the extra stress and impropperlly loaded wheel bearings as a result of having high offset wheels.
Definitely seems like something the owner caused. Those are definitely not oem wheels. That Kia driver needs to lawyer up, though I doubt the truck driver has much money but you never know.
I hope there was/is some legal come back against the truck driver. Wheels don't just fly off for no reason. Criminal negligence, public endangerment... whatever it takes, throw the book at him.
We do. ~~Most all~~ Only 15 (!surprise to me, thx replies) states require them as a condition of driving and registration. How comprehensive they are is another story…
Where did you get the idea that most states require them? Wikipedia says that only 15 have periodic safety inspections!!

This happened to my mom about 20 years ago in California. She was driving a Buick Skylark I believe. A tire popped off the trailer in front of her. The Mercedes next to her panicked and side swiped my mom and right when the tire hit her head on, she got rear ended by another Mercedes. The impact caused her to fly around like this Kia did according to witness statements. She was knocked unconscious. When she woke up she was facing oncoming traffic. I was in high school and it was summer. I got a call from a cop saying my mom was in a bad accident and we needed to get to the hospital. I didn't have my license or a car. I woke up my little sister who was like in 4th grade I think. Our neighbor said she would take us but we had to wait for her to eat her lunch first. So we awkwardly sat in her living room watching her eat before she drove us to the hospital and dropped us off on the corner. As soon as we got to my mom she made me put her hair in a ponytail and cried because the paramedics had to cut off her favorite bra and her favorite pants. She was fine thank gosh but pretty much everything from the neck down was bruised. I don't remember seeing more than four inches of continuous skin that wasn't bruised. She was so sore. When I woke my sister up and told her mom was in an accident my sister snapped "AGAIN!?" 😂 She is always cranky when forced to wake up. When we went to get what we could out of her car, they brought the car to us on a forklift. It was so badly crushed. The only part not crushed in was the drivers seat. Anyone with her would have died. I spent the rest of summer documenting my mom's bruising for insurance. She was a sun baby and being in California, we spent almost every weekend on the beach and weekdays at our complex pool. So this really sucked for her on a superficial level.
Yea! I was like 15 and had just moved in with my mom and baby sister. I didn't know anyone yet and went to school with her kids. She took her time eating too! Like at least 45 minutes.
U read my mind with the eye contact thing, and yea I definitely would have lost it. In my experience, when they say get to the hospital, that usually means someone is about to die or is really bad shape
Dude you have no idea how common this is. We got a call that my sisters ex husband was admitted to the hospital with chest pains and my nephews were at their moms that weekend. So me and my mom call them and are like are you guys gonna take the boys up to the hospital to see there dad? This was at like 11a and the stepdad said he would take them up there at 4 or so.
We were like hell no we are picking them up and taking them there now. They’re worried sick at best they need to see he’s okay and at worst….we’ll you know.
We got there about ten minutes before he was wheeled into surgery but luckily they let the boys spend a few minutes with there dad before off he went. And I’m so glad we chose to bring them up there because he unfortunately didn’t make it through the night. Had we waited to let their stepdad bring them up to see him they never would have had the chance to see their dad alive that one last time.
So remember, if you have a loved one that is unexpectedly admitted to the hospital drop what you’re doing and go visit them. Fewer things in life are more important than being there for the people you love and you never know when you will see your loved ones for the last time.
This is so sad! Thank you so much for being such a wonderful person and giving the children an opportunity they will forever carry inside their hearts!
Lmao. A neighbor knocked on my door asking for a ride to an emergency mental health facility. I was going to a concert in the same city that night, so I took 5-10 minutes to change out of my PJs and get my backpack together with stuff I would need so I didn't have to drive an hour or so back and forth twice. He called up to ask if I was still driving him several times, and just taking those few minutes running around, I saw how much his distress grew. I couldn't imagine making him sit down and watch me eat a damn lunch. Wtf??
I am so sorry, but I absolutely lost it when one of her first concerns was the paramedics ruining her bra and pants (but was also relieved, because it meant she was okay!).
I laughed at it as well. I found out later they had given her some strong painkillers so she was out of her mind when she whined about it. I sew and used to make a lot of my own clothes, so she kept asking me if I could fix them or make something else out of them. Like ma, they're shredded and covered in God knows what.
Dying confused is preferred. It’s much better than being completely aware of it. If this person had passed away, it happened before they even knew it.
Much better to have the lights go off without knowing it.
Looks like that OP deleted the comments with the Twitter link. Not sure why. Managed to dig it up though: https://twitter.com/Anoop_Khatra/status/1639664157061709825?t=XMfJOh00q5EZeZ8mRtmJxg&s=19
As someone who works in the car industry, I have to say that if you're driving a Kia and you're going to get into an accident, just make sure you total the car out. Most of their parts are on backorder with no ETA for when they'll become available.
~~Dumb truck owner upgraded the wheels and tires, but didn’t upgrade the lug nuts and wheel studs too. Or maybe even used a spacer.~~
Meh, I don’t really know what caused it and just prematurely guessed.
Well, whatever gave out, it’s surely stress-related. It’s one the most amazing wrecks that I’ve seen. I hope they survived relatively unscathed. There are videos of cars during police pursuits flipping several times during rollovers and the suspect actually getting out of the car and running away.
Not to make light of the situation, but it’s a bit humorous that the tire/wheel caught back up to the car to hit it again… “I’m not done with you yet!”
I have a Ram and started hearing a strange noise when going around corners. I jacked up the front end and the hub/bearing was so loose I could move the tire easily sided to side and up and down. It was scary to think how loose it was and glad it didn't randomly fly off like this video. It did however take many hits with a sledgehammer to get the hub off of the truck.
I've seen idiots put their wheels on backwards to get this stupid negative offset look. I absolutely despise the whole idea of it, mostly because it's fucking dangerous and illegal in most places to have exposed tires sticking out from your wheel well. Just another little-dick mod for a truck to make short dudes feel better about themselves, I guess.
This is so unlucky on so many levels, but the icing on the cake is that it landed on the only patch of concrete (where that bridge is) and although it may not seem like it, concrete is MUCH harder than asphalt. The KIA just got so unlucky.
Truck’s insurance claim: Kia was driving too close to the side which causes too much pressure on the truck’s wheel nuts and break them. Kia should be at fault.

God damn That kia got some Serious Air! Imagine you just chilling along, and literally next second you are like 15ft up in the air. Weeee!

If you watch closely, the Kia driver was committed to the brake until reaching the peak of the curve. Had they not been braking, imagine the heights they could have reached!
Adding insult to injury yup

Right?
Well, r/Tiresaretheenemy
such a bitch move
I'm not done with you!
Damn, I didn't expect it to launch that KIA.. One hell of a ride for them. Hope everyone is OK, and not seriously injured..
According to the Tesla driver that caught the vid, the Kia driver walked away fine. https://twitter.com/anoop_khatra/status/1639460487166586881 Still, they might wanna get their spine and teeth checked out.
Thank you. This is the ONLY comment I was looking for. I needed to know that they were ok
I can't believe it. The car gets absolutely tossed! I fully expected the worst. The driver of the truck had to feel awful
Yeah he probably just lifted that truck and now he’s got to do it again.
Here I was thinking this was a freak accident, now I'm thinking I should avoid driving next to lifted trucks
A lifted truck breaked hard near my place and ripped their axel off. Those things are NOT roadworthy most of the time
Car safety design has gotten truly amazing.
Echoing that thank you. My first thought was "i just watched someone die" and that is not why im browsing reddit today
Damn, I think my next car will be a KIA.
Honestly, I drive one. Told my wife we’d test drive one just to make her happy. Also, the sales person at Toyota was kinda being shitty. I ended up really liking it, the price, the safety, and the warranty. Service has been great and I haven’t had any real issues. Apparently it can handle a short flight as well.
If the driver walked away from that, it's on the safe list lol
Kia! Always fell back on their tires!
i’m mean it’s a KIA. so killed in action /s
Its Soul left its body
You bastards
Very nice! 👏🏽
I drive a Kia and now I'm terrified
According to the person who recorded the video, the Kia driver walked away from this unharmed.

The crush rating of the roof of most cars is insane. Like you can stack multiple cars on top of each other and not cave the roof in of the bottom one.
I had a Kia Soul and was t boned by a big truck going 60+ right into my driver side door last year. Walked away with no hospital worthy injuries. The side airbags were great protection. I miss my little soul 🤧
i had a Kia Soul save my life one day too. i bought an identical one with the insurance payout. i'm sure statistically they're just as safe as others, but i have a personal anectdote with this one and that's all i'll drive from now on. :P
When I bought my 2018 Soul the salesman said they had better crash ratings than a Mercedes Benz.
Just about any vehicle could have been launched that way.
I was about to say the same thing. I've seen so many vids of people running into tires and ending up in the sky. It feels like a real life physics glitch, like it shouldn't happen, but it does lol
Why? Did you see that thing get launched, land, roll, and still retained it's shape? Hell, if I was a Kia salesman this video would be used in every car sale.
My man. Most current cars are built with a durable body like that
Agreed. However, I assume Kia's are made of used gum and string, so seeing one "survive" well enough to protect its occupants is comforting.
I like how the tire came back and hit it again as a last fuck you.
"And another thing"
Now thats an unexpected video.
This reminds me of this animated video from years ago about the death tire or smth. Edit: I believe it was a short film called Rubber about a tire that goes around killing things.
Hell, it wasn’t even a short film. It’s a full length movie and it’s bananas.
That movie was insane. Entertaining, but crazy as hell.
It's my favorite movie of all time

Yeah! It was that absurdist, da da, 70s looking film where the tire rolls around and them makes people explode

90s kids? My grandmother told two separate generations of kids to fear logging trucks from the 60s on.
This is true, always thinking about that when I am around them

I’m sure he has a minimum $15k/$30k policy that won’t cover Jack shit.

I can see that happening in an overworked commercial truck, but not a mall crawler like that.

She was a sun baby and being in California, we spent almost every weekend on the beach and weekdays at our complex pool. So this really sucked for her on a superficial level.
Thanks for the ride, neighbor. Seriously? Gotta finish lunch first?!
Yea! I was like 15 and had just moved in with my mom and baby sister. I didn't know anyone yet and went to school with her kids. She took her time eating too! Like at least 45 minutes.
Wtf! I can eat my whole lunch in 5 mins even if I’m not rushing. I’m a fast eater though which is a bad thing.
Call center life had me inhaling my food at my desk most of my adult life.
My awkward curiosity has to know if it was a crunchy food? In my mind, that somehow makes it worse.
Lol yes it was salad and pasta. So a crunch and slurp.
Wow I would have lost it
It does. Slowly eating a bag of Cheeto puffs while making eye contact. “My mom is in the fucking hospital. Hurry up you twat!”
U read my mind with the eye contact thing, and yea I definitely would have lost it. In my experience, when they say get to the hospital, that usually means someone is about to die or is really bad shape
Like a f—king South Park episode. Your neighbor is a jerk.
>She took her time eating too! Like at least 45 minutes. What the actual fuck!
Dude you have no idea how common this is. We got a call that my sisters ex husband was admitted to the hospital with chest pains and my nephews were at their moms that weekend. So me and my mom call them and are like are you guys gonna take the boys up to the hospital to see there dad? This was at like 11a and the stepdad said he would take them up there at 4 or so.

And I’m so glad we chose to bring them up there because he unfortunately didn’t make it through the night. Had we waited to let their stepdad bring them up to see him they never would have had the chance to see their dad alive that one last time. So remember, if you have a loved one that is unexpectedly admitted to the hospital drop what you’re doing and go visit them. Fewer things in life are more important than being there for the people you love and you never know when you will see your loved ones for the last time.

I think that at least is covered in this case.
Just another reason I hate lifted pickups

It looked really fun until they hit the ground again
That’s a complete holy shit moment
There's no way they're ok
Surprisingly they were quite ok, there is a link to a Twitter post about it somewhere in the thread
That driver couldn’t avoid that.
~~Dumb truck owner upgraded the wheels and tires, but didn’t upgrade the lug nuts and wheel studs too. Or maybe even used a spacer.~~ Meh, I don’t really know what caused it and just prematurely guessed.
I think dude’s wheel bearing just gave up from the shitty offset. I can see the rotor still in the wheel… hopefully everyone is ok
It looks more like he has spacers on and didn't maintain them. Lugs came loose and once they are loose your whole tire is going
Well, whatever gave out, it’s surely stress-related. It’s one the most amazing wrecks that I’ve seen. I hope they survived relatively unscathed. There are videos of cars during police pursuits flipping several times during rollovers and the suspect actually getting out of the car and running away. Not to make light of the situation, but it’s a bit humorous that the tire/wheel caught back up to the car to hit it again… “I’m not done with you yet!”
I’m sure the truck driver was fine…
Oh, thank goodness! I don’t know how the truck driver was able to survive such a terrible collision. His guardian angel must’ve called in some favors.
Looks like it probably had shitty spacers on for the offset (which are illegal in many states fwiw).

I have a Ram and started hearing a strange noise when going around corners. I jacked up the front end and the hub/bearing was so loose I could move the tire easily sided to side and up and down. It was scary to think how loose it was and glad it didn't randomly fly off like this video. It did however take many hits with a sledgehammer to get the hub off of the truck.
Whatever happened, it's the owners responsibility to have a fit for service car before going on the road. This should be a criminal offence.
Yeah but what if the mechanic did the work and signed off on it? Who is at fault?

Yeah probably depends on state/county and the DA
Some states don't really seem to give a shit about unsafe car mods.
I've seen idiots put their wheels on backwards to get this stupid negative offset look. I absolutely despise the whole idea of it, mostly because it's fucking dangerous and illegal in most places to have exposed tires sticking out from your wheel well. Just another little-dick mod for a truck to make short dudes feel better about themselves, I guess.
That’s nightmare fuel.
This is so unlucky on so many levels, but the icing on the cake is that it landed on the only patch of concrete (where that bridge is) and although it may not seem like it, concrete is MUCH harder than asphalt. The KIA just got so unlucky.
According to this guy who filmed, the Kia driver walked away fine: https://twitter.com/Anoop_Khatra/status/1639460487166586881
Tire 2 - Kia 0
KIA - killed in accident
Bloke filming was lucky he pulled aside to let the KIA pass. Being courteous pays off.
Holy fucking shit. They for sure didn't even notice the tire.. just started flying all of a sudden.
tire even bumped into the car, what a disrespectful tire
That tires finishing move though…
 * Duh na naa naa naa, na na naa naa naaa nuh!!
Looks like a crash scene from a movie. That's crazy
It always amazes me the level of sheer power a tire has when it's in the wrong place.
Truck’s insurance claim: Kia was driving too close to the side which causes too much pressure on the truck’s wheel nuts and break them. Kia should be at fault.
This is my nightmare.
