Russian Man Tries to Get Run Over by Tanker Truck

It's a sad, sad world we live in. Some people will go as far as taking their own life to get some money and ensure their family doesn't go hungry and their misery is ended.

Russia is known for two things right now, vodka, Vladimir Putin and dashcam video. OK, that's three things, but they might all be to blame for what you're about to see: alcohol and poverty to give you courage and the cam to film what follows. The guy in this video waits for this massive fuel tanker to start moving and jumps under it.

The driver must be accustomed to this sort of stuff, because he stops with split-second precision and avoids the potential suicide attempt.

But let's stop and think for a second what this crazy guy must have been thinking. If those massive tires would have run over his midsection, he would have most certainly die from the trauma. But had he gone far enough underneath the truck, it would have crippled his legs and probably left him alive.

Hopefully, this desperate Russian man got the scare of his life and never tried this stuff ever again.
