All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.
—T. E. Lawrence,
The Seven Pillars of Wisdom

Perfect example of a unlucky/lucky day.

My in laws lived in North Miami-Dade county and they had several of those high interchanges and flyovers.....Hated driving over those things...on top of those damn New York Yankees that lived down there going 80MPH behind me and giving me the finger for doing the speed limit 100 feet in the air.

I actually drove a van full of airmen on that very interchange in the snow in 94. We were deployed to MKE, on our way to go skiing on our day off.

It landed on it's wheels
There is another short video of a drive by from the opposite lanes and you can see amazing how much the truck retained its structure
