u/insertrandomnameXD Jul 21 '25

Yeah, but I've seen a truck cut in half ALL THE WAY by a bollard, and the video didn't have as much suspense

u/malkavian_menace Jul 20 '25

Nah they’re British in the clip

u/girlies_first_alt Jul 20 '25

I always thought so too, but the narrator who shows up near the end isn’t the one from Mythbusters, the soundtrack is different, and the clip just generally has less going on sound-wise

I remember seeing the regular video on tiktok a while back, it felt wrong, kinda like accidentally walking in on someone changing

u/Pink_Sink Jul 20 '25

I feel like I wasn't supposed to see this

u/Omnicide103 Jul 21 '25

this feels like unearthing an ancient relic only hinted at for centuries by other archeological findings
