I have read the link now.

I know he did get out somehow.

Houdini would have been proud

I bet the driver's wife was happy to see him kumhome after that

Seeing how the driver got out safe and all, you just know if you were there you'd have then pushed it over the edge to see some nice truck carnage...

Hope he was not driving when he was tyred

I'm intrigued to know what is actually keeping the lorry from falling?

What is preventing gravity from taking its natural course? It is difficult to comprehend that one (deflated) tyre and a small bit of metalwork is enough to combat this.

 

[BTB 500]

I think it is just that tyre (the weight is actually being taken by the wheel rim) and some bodywork at the front.

insane

 

[312 Sprinter]

I wonder how he explained that one to his boss?

 

[Burger]

Amazing!

Hope he bought a lottery ticket

 

[BTB 500]

So do we reckon they tried to recover it afterwards, or just gave it a nudge and let gravity do the rest ?!
