    Ahh yeah that was a bit rough.

    This is fine but the Youtube clip doesn't show the next couple of mins which is the cool bit when they show you how they did it.

    As I recall, part of it had to do with foam tires. I'm not sure if the truck was counter balanced on the right hand side to move the weight, but it does appear to be somewhat higher on the left side.

    Yeah they hung a couple of tons of weights onto the opposite side of the truck and ran over him with foam tires on that side. Still quite dangerous I think because if one of the blocks of weights on the far side had fallen off then maybe he would have been squashed? Knowing those guys they probably had a couple of extra safety things.
