This was insane and hard to watch.
A video that has gone viral on X shows the moment an 18-wheeler ran into an electrical worker who was inside the bucket of an electrical truck.
In the video, an electrical worker is seen working on a traffic light when an 18-wheeler makes a turn and hits the worker’s bucket.
Watch the moment it went down here:
KTDY had more details to add on the incident:
A shocking video of an 18-wheeler hitting an electrical worker in southeastern Louisiana was published on social media.
WBRZ shared a video of the truck hitting the bucket as the worker was being hoisted up in it while working at an intersection. Bill Atkinson’s dash camera captured the footage of the incident.
You see the truck turn as the worker is in the bucket, and soon after, the truck hits the bucket so hard that it shatters, leaving the worker hanging upside down while his co-workers look on.
It appears that the worker was wearing his safety gear, and it may have saved his life in this freak incident.
