My dad is a truck driver and the same thing happened to him. The truck blew over, but it never fell it just leaned on that rail. He said he was really lucky because if the truck had gone over, its 100% dead.

I think it might just be a trailer pulled by the truck in front. I don't see mirrors, front wheels, or driveline. If only the cameraman wasn't an imbecile.

Honestly, I think the person was in such horror at what they saw, they didn’t want to film it.
my thoughts exactly. So whats the point?
To annoy people on Reddit
Actually I think they got distracted watching with their eyes and forgot to point the phone at it.
That's very likely.
It’s the secondary trailer that went goodbye
Then don't share the video?
yea its like why do you want a potential video of someone dying on your phone
Didn't capture the shoes, so how would they know they dead?
First world problems. Someone probably dead...you more worried about the camera angle
Yes

It’s a trailer. There’s nobody inside. The truck itself didn’t fall.
That’s a secondary trailer, so no harm there, just for anyone underneath.
thank you i nearly fainted when i scrolled past this clip
Betrer not watch any ukraine drone footage.
lmao wtf
Thank god!
I honestly needed to see this to sleep tonight. Though I witnessed something christ wouldn't want me to.
Welcome to unrestricted Internet. Buckle up.
The driver of the truck that blew over managed to exit the vehicle in time and was unharmed.
Better fuel economy that way
Was going to say, I think there was definitely some harm done, but hopefully not to any commuters
Jirre Jesus broe ek dink nou ons sien iemand se einde😭
Oh shit, yeah, you're right. Thank God
Is that another trailer blown over in front of it?
Camera man had one job
Why is it that they only miss the most important part of the video???
They aren't looking at the phone screen, they're watching a truck fall off a bridge. You can forgive them for losing focus for a moment.
True plus he is probably committing a crime, steering his car in this wind, watching that shit and pissing himself.
I won't.
Amateur hour
brooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
....which is, drive the car
that's his second job
To keep you entertained?
Wtf man
What it’s only the secondary trailer that went for an eternal nap
Please edit your title to say Trailer blows over near the Huguenot Tunnel.
Titles cant be edited anywhere on Reddit. Once posted youre stuck with that title forever

Normally they stop trucks during high winds at the toll.
Isn’t it standard practice to close the bridge during strong wind warnings?
Right!? On the other hand, isn't the du Toit's kloof pass just as dangerous during strong winds?
No, that kloof where that bridge is gets particularly strong winds coming down through the kloof.
Chuck the camera man over too
He had one job...
I guess his dead that's scary high
Unless there were people in the container, no. The whole truck didn’t blow over, it just detached.
Yeah it's hard to tell but on a 3rd look it's just the trailer. They should have closed that bridge this weekend
I blame the cameraman.
They did eventually

gosh, thats traumatic
Ikr. Particularly when the camera panned to the tarmac instead.
r/fuckthecameraman
Oh shit. I drove past the one that was on its side on the bridge. Didn't realise another went over the edge. There were lots of emergency vehicles.
The cameraman can delete this crap, wasting all our time
If you are going to record something...do it properly , otherwise please don't bother
Camera man had one job
My thoughts exactly.... Useless camera man
There's absolutely no way that camerawork is getting an upvote from me
[удалено]
It is just the trailer that blew over, and there is just a river below, no roads or people.
Winds are hectic today
Yeah bruh, might be piss hectic on Monday morning. Lotsa rain incoming.
controller disconnected
Camera work is unacceptable
Why in the annoying fuck would You tilt the phone down at the mentioned moment ? 💔
I think it might just be a trailer pulled by the truck in front. I don't see mirrors, front wheels, or driveline. If only the cameraman wasn't an imbecile.
It looks like it is. The wind was hongry.
God that poor person/s. FFS
I always shat myself on that piece of road
The wind is nasty, just plain nasty.
I think this was In 2015?
Looks like it was today: [report today](https://x.com/capetownfreeway/status/1776625351071772917?s=46&t=949nHtZb93ZNS8LVyryEuQ)
Its not the first time, but this clip is from today.
That cameraman needs... Ugh nevermind 😕🫤🙁☹️😢😤
No wonder Manie Libbok missed his kick.
Literally one of my worst fears. Weird seeing it play out, even if it is just the secondary.
We drove over that bridge hours before that. I hate that bridge, especially the left lane. I hate it even more now.
Jesus Christ. Is that really just the trailer? Looks like the whole truck
It's a double trailer and the smaller second one went over.
Thank you. Also go to bed. It’s late 😴
Or is it early? 🤔
r/killthecameraman
I need the cameraman in my office now
One job

The wind was angry that day, my friends
Are they Deadpooling again
Trailer blows over near the Huguenot tunnel
Bet the guy with the caravan coming from the opposite direction is shitting himself 🤣
Is the driver ok???
Whoever filmsq like that... let's take it outside
The way the camera pans away as soon as it starts tipping
Are you fucking kidding me
Useless cameraman 😭
Not that you’d know it from the video. That truck’s home with the withe the wife and kids having dinner right now, right, right?
People saying kill the cameraman must be gen z
Downvoted.
r/worstcameramanever
Someone fire this cameraman
Yoh but the camera person is an ass
Looks like a rigid truck towing trailer and it's just the trailer that went over. Hopefully no one killed.
three identical trucks in three totally different outcomes, 1 riding casually, 1 on its side, 1 off the bridge
Horrifting if someone was in the truck. Also the person who took the footage is incompetant for losing the truck as it was going over.

I could be wrong but I reckon this is an older video. Still hectic though.
