Russian Truck Driver Fails at Waterside Unloading Maneuver

Whenever you are transferring oxygen (or propane, or CO2) tanks from the back of a truck, onto a small boat, on the bank of a river, it is advisable to stop as close to the water as possible, so as to make the unloading easier. However, if you overcook it and end up in the water, none of your friends will be buying you a beer any time soon.
This Russian driver backs up to the shore, so that his friends can transfer all the cylindrical tanks from the back of his truck, into the small boat. However, he does overcook it and ends up in the water, with the truck completely sinking out of sight within seconds. The driver does manage to escape, but the truck seems like a goner.

Good thing those tanks could float, otherwise, the cleanup operation would have been a lot more difficult. However, being a river, the tanks start to slowly drift downriver, and while we do not see how the story ends, some may have been lost.
