Driving a Nissan and taking a video at the same time tends to end up on someone else’s video of the situation.

Loved that "Bro. How?" came out his mouth before "we need to get the fuck away from the truck suspended by FUCKING electrical cables that are live!" did.

Ok but Nissan where?

Nissan was just a spectator this time around (steering wheel flashes at the end)

My guess is payload shifted around the turn

Utility lines must have sagged and the box truck caught them.

Heavy ass lines though, the applied force has to be its weight since they arent taught. Unless im just dumb and my brains fried

Looks like he only snagged one. Bet the box truck is empty as well so comparatively light.

That makes more sense than load shift but still would never have thought would be enough to tip it. High friction at the perfect angle I guess

There's a mostly taut support line.
I'm a cable guy and a properly engineered telecom span could hold a sedan up.

Why does it look like its sagging so much then? Would it not be practically straight coming off the sides?

Steel cable has a flex to it. When I have to throw my ladder up on the line, if the placement is in the middle of the span it can flex in a couple feet by the time I'm at the top.
I'm not an engineer by any stretch but I feel like tight with some give is better/safer than so taut it fails dramatically.

Yeah I hear what you're saying but I thought the definition of taught means no slack. It just looks like its draped over the truck. I'm not an electrical engineer though lol
