A dashboard camera caught a truck crash in Russia, sending the vehicle full of cows tipping over on the road.
Filmed by a long-haul driver in the Krasnodar region of southern Russia and dated in early November, the vehicle is seen driving in the wrong lane, then flipping over and sending its cargo of bovine into the streets.
After being uploaded to the internet, the video went viral. It seems like the cows were not hurt in the accident, as they immediately stood up and started walking.
It’s refreshing to see a good-news story for a change.
Hey #1,
Did you see any pigs flying in this video, too? LOL
Old McDonald had a farm, E I E I O! And on his farm he had a co….Nope. Nevermind. Not no more. Haha!
There’s so much negative news around these days, one has to dig to find the occasional comic relief. LOL
Cowhide is durable material. I’d love to have a complete outfit like those beautiful bovine. Ouch, they did have a rough ride, hope they were given goodies before bedtime.
Where are the PETA activists on this one now? – hell they are probobly eating their burgers at their local Mc Donalds etc.
Driving a load of cattle can be tricky, if they’re not tied off well to the sides, or packed in good and tight. They start shifting the weight around, and can easily put you out of control. Hogs are worse, if not packed in to where they can’t move. This probably was the cause of the roll over. That being said, cows are tough animals. Hogs are even tougher.
In the movie “Alvarez Kelly”, William Holden trashes a whole regiment of yankees with a herd of cattle. Great movie. Sorry for babbling. Just having trouble getting to sleep. Be well, all, Rob
They’re a lot more fun when they puke all over the inside and the outside of the trailer. The drivers usually haul ass to get them to slaughter and the little guys are puking all over the place. Cattle too.
Mark,
Yeah, I hear alot of farms overfeed the animals before shipping, thinking the weight will be there when they cross the scale. Alot of it winds up coming out both ends during the trip. It was different 50 years ago. I think farmers were smarter back then. Rob
