Large freight
F
Are those bales of cardboard?! Those things are heavy as hell. I’m amazed the car didn’t just collapse as they were putting them on.
I
“Amazed the car didnt collapse as they were putting them on” …well you see, it did, then caught on fire probably because the gas tank and everything else under the car was dragging on the ground
F
I meant more amazed that it could still even drive…even if it did catch fire pretty quickly
T
The engine usually has enough torque to pull an overload car and will fail way after the suspension/ steering / frame will.
G
Reminds me of the high couple buying supplies for a shack at 84 lumber. Plywood on top of their little sedan and 800lbs of cement in the back seat. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/lumber-car/
O
Gotta carry all the groceries in one trip!
C
Oh man, that brings me back. I remember sitting around an apartment with college friends arguing if that picture was real.
T
Hell, I bought 10 bags of soil and stones the other day and thought I was about to murder my little focus. Don’t think it could’ve taken much more weight. I made sure not to push it though.
O
At a certain point, why transport it? Just burn it or something. And…as I type this the camera pans to a massive roadside fire.
C
Used cardboard has some very little value it’s recycled.
R
I’m amazed someone went through all this to transport 3$ worth of cardboard
D
I think they were just stacks of boxes. No way could that vehicle carry that many stacks if they’d been through a baler.
A
I thought he was carrying like 17 ovens on the roof of his car somehow haha.
B
Yeah might as well just have a couple tree trunks strapped to the roof!
B
I once worked in retail and we used to compact our trash cardboard boxes. You don’t realize how heavy the bales are until you have to try to move one. It would take a forklift to get that thing out to the back.
F
Yep, I also worked in retail and have plenty of experience lugging those things around. That’s why I so shocked when I saw like 5 of them on that car.
K
I’d love to see a time lapse video of them loading this.
A
Ah, I see he went straight to the find out stage of the proceedings.
D
Cool we got to see the consequence part of this. You always get the “what the heck is he thinking” part but rarely the “how did he not see that coming part”.

Looks like some sort of Mad Max kind of kamikaze car
X
I think that’s called a box truck.
D
I think its called a fire truck.
J
A rare sighting of the life cycle where a box truck becomes a fire truck
S
That was really good. You should have gotten more credit for that.
S
I wonder how they even get themselves in such a situation…
Z
“I know a guy”
N
They think the bad thing will never happen to them so they risk it because it’s cheaper and faster than all the other solutions to their problem.
T
Man these deliveries Uber expects drivers to do nowadays are getting ridiculous…
C
“Must be able to lift 4,500 kilograms.”
J
Good heavens, I thought the windshield was completely blocked by that large bale of cardboard! Then I saw the portion of the windshield directly in front of the driver was clear. That’s all right then.
B
Look again. Pretty sure there’s a blue barrel in front of the driver’s side of the windshield. If you look in right before that you can see the driver seems to be leaning out the window to see.
J
Holy shit you’re right! Driver navigating by vibes
S
Ace Ventura style
H
0:14 is the grave consequences of not slapping the roof and saying “that’s not going anywhere”.
A
Thought that was tank at first!
S
Steering with his head out the window? Yep, check. 0_0
C
Cargo, but not for very long.
T
Carstopped.
L
Carno
N
New Russian tank
S
He learned to drive from Ace Ventura.
S
It’s so rare to get a followup as satisfying as that.
N
I hope the driver got out. I wouldn’t be surprised if all the straps held the door closed.
J
“Babe it’s fine, I don’t need help, let me carry all the grocery bags to the kitchen in one trip”
A
Alright, so he’s videoing the cardboard vehicle going along. He passes it, and then here’s the real question: how did the cardboard vehicle end up getting ahead of him, catching fire, and then him ending up passing by that cardboard vehicle again?
S
It’s two videos from two different cars, first one is from the front seat of a dark-colored car, the second one is from the right rear window of a white car.
A
You’re right. I didn’t notice that. I thought it was the same vehicle.
M
Those cardboard bales are 800 pounds each, and they can burn for a long time.
D
If it works, it works…until it doesn’t.

Ein Hoch! auf den deutschen TÜV.
