Strong Winds Lift Truck Off The Ground In Bizarre Incident

In a bizarre incident captured on surveillance cameras, strong winds lifted a truck off the ground and flipped it around on its front wheel before slamming it back on the road. Footage captured in Yinchuan, China, shows the truck waiting at a red light with other cars before it is suddenly sent flying.

According to The Paper, the truck weighed a whopping 1.8 ton. Despite its size and weight, powerful winds were able to flip it over with apparent ease while it waited at the stop light on Saturday. Curiously enough, other cars waiting at the intersection remained unaffected by the winds - leading to several bemused comments from viewers on social media.

CCTV V footage of the bizarre incident has gone viral on Chinese social media platforms like Weibo and Miaopai. In it, the truck is seen rotating on its front wheel after being lifted into the air. It is then seen crashing to the ground, going from the road to the pavement in the space of a few seconds. You can watch the video
