The can opener, AKA 11Foot8

[Raptor1956]

So there's this train trestle in North Carolina that has a reputation for destroying trucks taller than 11 foot 8 inches. Someone that own property there has a neat little business of recording the crashes and posting them online for our amusement. Here's one day in the life of ... The Can Opener.

And for his website...

Enterprise is a vehicle rental company so I'm sure the drivers didn't know how tall the trucks were - no excuse though. The first one was only a couple of inches over height but the second looked to be almost a foot too tall.

It's got a little brother at 10'-6" which also has it's own YouTube channel IIRC. But this one is the more spectacular of the two with much better cam coverage

If you notice the second view of the second crash you can see the large tow truck and right behind it is the first truck with the torn up roof. No wonder they were laughing...

That first one was quite violent. Someone's going to get killed there one day.
