Bank roof destroyed by camper trailer + images

[Core2duoMac]

Thats the worst building on the face of this planet. How the hell does it just topple over like that from a tiny nudge? no structural integrity whatsoever. A monumental failure in engineering.

[thebeastlyvengeance]

saw this on ridiculousness had to see if this guy survived

[chuckied18]

there goes his bank account

[fedorauser1003]

Just imagine what a bad wind storm could have done to that.

[azizqasem]

Is the driver died in the accident?

[DaniNicole93]

@azizqasem: He lived lol. I live 15 minutes away from where this happened. He got unbuckled and moved to the passenger side before it hit. He walked away without a scratch :)

[nords]

The structure was not well done

[anderqual]

Have to say that structure was wrong and the RV'er probably saved someones life accidentally!

[DerZwerg811]

what an idiot...

[xXZertulXx]

No Video.

[thehondaryder1]

Good thing auto zone is right across the street. The truck and camper should be back on the road in no time.

[kegger28]

Well they didnt make to the nascar race.

[freshmeatz]

Typical Omaha driver

[rockstarDM81]

I think the big bad wolf could've blown that bank roof down!

[twotoneify]

u can all say that that roof structure sucked and it was built wrong but lets get to the point of this whole thing CHECK UR MIRRORS, OBJECTS ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR THINGS U NEED TO KNOW HOW TALL IS UR CAMPER COMPARED TO THE BUILDING THATS ALSO A KEY POINT TO LOOK OUT FOR

[maplemanz]

Hello Allstate!

[kangax]

did he died ?

[MrTrojis]

lucky he knocked it down it was an accident waiting to happen. If he didn't knock it down then it might have killed someone later on.

[warrior2thecore]

thats bull shit... that should have never happened, this is wat happens when people are cheap and dont do it right...

[HiTeckGamers]

Made in China

[bigchad007]

HOLY SHIT!! They got lucky as hell on that one!!! WOW

[9b8]

Stupid stupid stupid. I would NEVER consider driving a trailer like that through s drive-thru. Period. At least don't forget ur pulling a fucking trailer!!! Secondly however, whoever built the overhang structure should be shot. A structure of that size should have had I-beams, or at least reinforced concrete pillars. A tornado or hurricane would have much the same effect on that prissy structure.

[craz3ydeath]

@9b8

LOL a hurricane or tornado would take out the whole thing.. If a tornado or hurricane hit that, it wouldn't fall... so it wouldn't have much of the same effect.

[SteelCity1981]

this is one time where seat belts wouldn't save your life.

[sjtom57]

So to make it on YT all you have to do is drive like a complete idiot, eh?

[xashes21]

gf bank.

[cimbaloindustries]

thats new construction for ya!!!!!!!

[EbowKaneeBow]

I wanted to submit this to failblog...but I'd just feel like a douche. :|

[ROFLSoldiers]

I love the coments unstable roof, not built to code how bout the FUCKTARD OF A DRIVER ! ROFL !

[mistereveready]

@ROFLSoldiers Building codes are there for a reason. The driver was stupid for trying to do squeeze past/through it, but that cheap shit shouldn't have caved the hell in. Very fortunate that no other people were underneath. That accident doesn't look easy to explain to an insurance company.

[7beachbabe143]

That's the most unstable roof I've ever seen

[xgaryxallenx]

Hahah.

[TerryMMA85]

made in china

[WebkinzRocker99]

i SAW A PERSON IN THE CRASH ON THE LEFT

[Aonexia]

Was it a woman driving?

[afronifkin]

@Aonexia you would assume so but no

[Aonexia]

@afronifkin Thank you... :)

[stamdar1]

Take that high gas prices.

[TheDeathCrawler]

Ha ha ha retard

[nirnova]

good thing noone was parked under there

[REYTUYO]

americans constructions are so weak they build everything with wood and wire...

[HIllCarver]

@REYTUYO you should only talk about things that are true and you know about.,

[randomvideowatcher]

Is that what they call breaking the bank?

[EagleTalons1]

O.k.! Just made another huge payment on my camper. Lets get to the camp site! Whoops!

[Alhanie]

If someone was using the drive-thru ATM, they would be gone because of this idiot.

[impleasen]

they dont call them dodge rams for nothin

[CAL2177]

Union-made. lol

[ethanjefferson]

this has nothing to do with the make or model of the truck! its the dumb ass people these days that have no clue how to drive!!!

[crlsmluis]

@ethanjefferson I tottally agree with you . But what you expect the DODGE haters are loving it , all because the driver didn't know what he had behind the truck.

Same thing would've happened w/ a chevy or ford .

[ClintJohnHampton]

FAIL

I Savered Every Slow Keystroke As I Typed These Words

[SuperGarrett16]

@lifter85 oh and my dad has an 01 f250 super duty trition v10 never been in the shop and he bought it new

[SuperGarrett16]

@Lifter85 yea it might If the acelerator pedal don't stick. But anyway I have got three fords a 77 f100 a 72 f100 and a 66 mustang and they are all origonial and in good condition and have never ever ever had one single problem with any of them. So that should tell you something am I right. Toyota's always has some kind of problems ford has had none gm has had none. buy American there's nothing wrong with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fergiman]

@SuperGarrett16 you need to get your facts straight, first off, the pedals in the toyotas are the same manufacturers of the ones on gm and chryslers, its not toyotas fault, gm has had recalls recently for brake failures, pedal sticking and cars spontanteously combusting due to washer fluid heater. Chrysler has brake failure problems, and pedals sticking. When the #1 vehicle manufacturer (Toyota) has a problem like this, all other companies pay the media to destroy their reputation.

[paintballgundown8]

@fergiman the problem is people in toyotas expect their car to last, be safe, and run on water. When something goes wrong and kills people in the brand that is supposed to be the safest and most reliable then YES the news eats it up.

[SuperGarrett16]

@tremendousknock23 friend just so you know Toyota is realy worst type of vehicle you can buy. I use to work for Toyota and they took alot of short cuts by the way i now work and the ford dealer ship next door to Toyota and there are alot more Toyota's in the shop than fords so that should tell you something my friend so get your facts right.

[Lifter85]

@SuperGarrett16 ...is that why toyota's last longer than american brands such as ford?

[fergiman]

@SuperGarrett16 Those people you worked with at toyota need to be fired then if they are taking shortcuts. thats one dealership not the entire cpmpany. toyotas are in the shops for tunups, oil changes, belts, the regulars, some have problems just like other conmpanies. I can say that most people will vouch for what i say compared to what you say because you know youre wrong and arrogent. Thumbs up people!!!

[lion6322]

I just have to say WOW! to all of the ignorant comments floating around. Brand loyalty bullshit? American build quality? What does that have to do with the fact that this moron almost killed himself due to his own sheer stupidity?

[powerdate18]

he died?

[ruymxsx7]

usa roof the best

[spigknot]

did he die

[unkGUAM]

Whoo you had an angel watching over you! The bank should pay the damages, that was a weak structure. A earthquake could take that out, then again insurance right. Vultures!

[MikeWulf]

@unkGUAM

wouldn't an angel prevent the accident from happening in the first place?

[unkGUAM]

hahahahhahaa true. mike wulf

[mousi1955]

Thank goodness it was a Dodge!!! That is a big contributing factor as to WHY the driver and son walked away!!

[kingmike40]

The roof fall too easy. It wasn't built correctly. Lucky for the driver there is a Autozone across the street.

[ramonrios01]

@kingmike40 yeah you are right next time they should make those roofs stupid proof f***k dumb ass!

[GitRDoneDaleJr]

The photo's make it look better as of how the driver survived the crash. In the video part, it looked as if the whole driver seat was crushed to bits. But at the side angle photo, it was mainly the rear seat that was demolished on the truck.

[OneCompHelp]

Oh well, its just a dodge :p

[52892e]

at least it not a gay toyota.

[OneCompHelp]

@52892e True enough :p

[TremendousKnock23]

@52892e gay or not friend, toyota provides tens of thousands of jobs in the U.S.A!

and not to mention its the nations number one selling, and lasting car/truck/suv, you probally drive a dodge dakota, and couldnt afford a tundra. amercias #1 truck. have a great day

[BoynDE1]

I wonder if Billy Bob pitched his tent, to go camping.....instead.

[pmccolley]

The support columns were steel wrapped in a brick facade. You can see the support posts in the photo. They are round with a steel plate at the bottom to bolt them down. Although it looks the they only had 2 bolt holes instead of four.

[Adj19888]

not funny the driver died btw it is true

[seafarer76]

No he didn't. Him and his 11 yo son got out the passenger side.

[Adj19888]

i wish thats true

[billfunky]

good

[tools747]

@seafarer76 glad to hear that, it looked pretty grim the first 3 times i saw it lol, you wouldnt happen to have the link to the article/paper that covered the story would u?

[RussianCoolAnton]

it was a dodge anyways..

[Inu1294]

How would you explain this to the insurance company? lol

[pambuanpambuan]

are the people in the car dead??

[Neocon2008]

No, they survived.

[traubelstrasse5]

This is american quality!!!!!

[jtreign9097]

thats the weakest roof structure i ever seen... supports must have been wood.... should have been steel if vehicles are traveling underneath. this is actually against building code were i am from.

[polarispredatorrider]

@jtreign9097 and that trailer weighs around 18,000lbs

[jtreign9097]

@polarispredatorrider yeah but the top of the trailer like that is more fiberglass and wood and maybe aluminum sheeting.. no way the trailer was suppose to do that much damage... maybe rotten wood was to blame or just not enough beams holding it up... seems like 2 wooden posts held that roof up

[iPodTouchTutor]

@jtreign9097 No it's not. Move a 4 ton vehicle(s) into a structure supported by 4 stakes and physics does it job.

[Dibby59]

@jtreign9097 So how many weak roof structures have you seen.

[jtreign9097]

@Dibby59 if a job is done too cheap or not done right...this can happen. i seen a similar thing happen except was a utility company boom truck very tall in height.. was an international or larger chevy C series... anyhow when i seen this thing hit the overhead roof of an on old bank the roof was torn but concrete beams intact and over head aluminum steel roof frame intact but damaged but did not collapse

[peelincaps]

they are so lucky they didn't get crushed in this accident.....

[redsquirrelftw]

I thought it was a gas station when I first saw this video somewhere else, and thought the exact same thing. Should be square or I beams at the least. Now that I saw it was an actual roof and not just a gas station flat, it definably should of had at least 6 steel beams holding it up, and they should be fastened to a steel frame on top. Low budget construction FTW.

[RW00632]

just LOL
