[RenzeZielman]

how did they get it back on its feet so smoothly ?i'd expect it to fall back as soon as it is pulled over its dead point, but it came down real gentle...

@shadowblack1987 Disagree with you completely on that one. It is all about using precise amounts of the explosives to just crack the concrete. Drilling a ring of holes for a "round" is the usual way although for a truck one would not use anything like the amount used in Cornish tin mines (granite) Cavers have developed a technique of "cave shaving". A few blank cartridges as used in Hilti nail guns are deployed in a pre-drilled hole.

@techdavey1000 You need to go get informed and watch mythbuster.

Explosives + Concrete in Drum = FAIL.

[techdavey1000]

With mixer truck accidents/breakdowns it is VERY important to get the concrete out before it sets. The concrete can be too thick even for jackhammers and often a new drum will be needed. Possibly rock drills and explosives would break out the concrete OK but a lot of countries make this method impossible because of red tape and terrorism worries. Hard rock mines will usually have the right stuff and the licences to use it. In the good old days "jelly" was only a quid a stick!

is becausa all the weigth is on the other side is why the truck when so smoothly think about it and some time the dirt is soft so when you get on it truck stars going down

Same thing happened right in front of a school I used to go to a few days ago.
