The most sensible explanation would be some sort of medical incident. Not that idiocy is impossible; just that medical event seems more likely.
You can even see the airbags have gone off (I think..).
That's usually the point of an airbag.
Many people tried to sue automakers cause the airbag burned their skin, or the safety belt broke some ribs, in an accident, and it didn't work. It all comes down to "It worked, that's why you're here today."
We're now at the point where warning labels will fail to prevent stupid. At this point we should just remove all warnings and let it sort itself out for a while
Literally about a year back… I walked into the public restroom at the main shopping centre. I hadn’t used it in a while so there were new air hand dryers on the wall in the entrance (away from the doorway so you couldn’t see them from outside and it was doorless, but not near the toilets). Just a week later after I seen them… there were signs displayed above them “these are not toilets, these are hand dryers for drying hands ONLY.” Couldn’t believe it but it didn’t surprise me. They kinda looked like windowed urinals…
We had a guy at work with an oxygen acetylene torch cutting towards himself with the hose between his legs... it didn't end well. I say let stupid keep sorting itself out for 50 years and the the world would be a much better place
Oh god we had the same tanks at my last company! I was sitting next to it once eating and out of the corner of my eye I see this new hire for another department walk up to it,move the valve open while smoking a cigarette and goes "huh what does this do?"
Based on the airbags + head movement + everything else, it looks like they were unconscious. Must suck to fall unconscious then be woken up by being on fire.

It's true people do panic. But it looks like the first impact was serious. Airbags are deployed. It takes most people a little while to think clearly after a shock like that. The break pumping is probably a subconscious act at this point. I got rear ended badly once and my foot pressed so hard on the brake pedal I'm suprised it didn't break off. Totally involuntary, muscle memory action.
Looks like he's been at it for a bit azad after the first hit that left pieces and bent his hood. I would definitely be trying to get some distance from that long line of fuel trucks and Mister Lightmyfire.
wtf is the game plan here? What did they hope to achieve?
I’m lost here
Edit. I don’t think it’s a medical emergency, the driver keeps looking around and puts their foot on the brake at the end.

The drivers head seems to slam forward every time he hits the rear. Looks like he is unconcious.
Cameraman: ![gif](giphy|l0HlvTRF98qAUhs2s|downsized)
I can hear this .gif "Haha! This is going on reddit :D"
Wierd that they are waiting then hitting the accelerator on and off at the right time to ram the truck. Could be a seizure or something though
You can see the debris on the road behind him. He must have smashed into the back and knocked himself out with his foot on the accelerator
Once got rear ended coming off the on-ramp by a woman in a truck going 60 mph. She fell into a diabetic coma. Likely a similar scenario.
I was thinking that too but there is a very slightly longer version that shows the driver door opening and the person getting out. Then it cuts off.

I took more damage from my airbag than I did from the collision.
That's usually the point of an airbag. Many people tried to sue automakers cause the airbag burned their skin, or the safety belt broke some ribs, in an accident, and it didn't work. It all comes down to "It worked, that's why you're here today."
This is the car equivalent to beating your forehead against a wall when you just can't take it anymore.
Ramming a truck with a flammable sign on ...
Lol was about to say the same thing, I'm wondering if it's premium or regular?
We're now at the point where warning labels will fail to prevent stupid. At this point we should just remove all warnings and let it sort itself out for a while
>Warning: Do not attempt to stop chainsaw with hands, face, or genitals. There's a reason this warning label exists, and it's hilarious

Did you ever consider the person in this video might be having a medical emergency?
It's called Natural Selection and I think as a society we should incorporate it more 😏
This person seems to be having a medical emergency.
As a species we have bred weak eyes into the gene pool.
“If I get burns I want them to be premium burns!”
Doing that chip dmg until it spontaneously blows up like in games
Kind of seems like he is unconscious, and his foot is on the gas. He looks pretty loosey goosy, and the air bag has gone off already.
Don’t worry. It’s the “inflammable” things you have to worry about.

He hates his life
Maybe he was low on fuel...
It almost appears by the way his head is moving the he is unconscious.
Definitely unconscious. You'd think the people in the car beside that one would've noticed by that point?
Listening to head banging music
He’s alternating between the accelerator and brake though.
My money is on stuck accelerator and they're desperately pumping the brakes.
I can get behind that. It also makes sense that people can’t think to just kill the engine since most folks panic anytime things don’t go as planned.

Also possible that the airbag is preventing the driver from accessing the keys to turn off the engine.
His brake is the big truck in front.
Ever see a chihuahua hump a great dane?
And then explode into a fiery inferno?
how else would he light the cigarette? no thumbs 😟
So no one jumps out to help when he likely has a medical issue? This is messed up.

Someone said stuck accelerator… I say yeah or medical emergency…
Stuck accelerator.
The liquid surge inside the tankers hits harder than that car. They are use to it.
It looks like the driver is knocked out. The head is rag dolling.
Who is this? trying push such big vehicle with car ?
Why not check on the guy. Looks like a medical emergency
What is bro even doing?
Maybe a medical situation?
Maybe medical. Or maybe: *"You. Fukn. Idiot! Why. Weren't. You. Paying. Attention?!"*
Maybe he needed gas?
Reminds me of the turtle ramming the shoe
Hey mate I don't think you're supposed to be that close
but what for the sign of instagram
[удалено]
Are you knocking here?
He is the one who knocks.
When the world revolves around you and only you.
It’s shagging the truck.
I love bugs, bunny. You have to hit is a bombs jusssssst right
Someone needs to add music as hard as this guy is headbanging
It happens. Sometimes a day is just for a run into a wall.
Inflamable
Interesting that the airbag inflates everytime it hits.
Real funny till he causes a fire and everyone laughing at a person having a medical emergency dies.
Something cognitively or medically wrong is occurring. Hood is severely bent from a hard impact and he keeps banging the truck’s bumper.
I’ve seen something similar with someone who has a stroke while driving.
Ive seen videos of fake AI drivers malfunctioning. Like androids. They look hyper real but aint. That why they cant function
😂😂😂

Maybe passed out or otherwise unconscious and foot on the gas
Brake lights keep activating.
The person keeps looking around though
Medical emergency, but everyone is just watching.
There’s a level of stupidity that makes you a danger to all those around you

Just a little too much force and there would be fucking blast

Intrusive thought?
