    Is that a height warning sign just before the bridge on the right?

    Not near as tall as it was while ago. Don't think I've ever seen an excavator shear off at the slewing ring like that one did leaving the entire undercarriage and car body in the truck must have had it chained down really well.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    It looks like the undercarriage started to come off the truck. But it sure is not in the original location when all the dust settles. Also loose like it may have been a bread new machine with the paint still on the tracks

    Same thing happened here in Vegas a month or so back, and the falling debris killed a veteran Las Vegas Metro PD Detective who was in a car behind the Semi and on his way to work.
