WATCH: Crazy Video Of A Pickup Truck Crashing Through A Gas Pump In Front Of The Luckiest Semi-Truck Driver Ever

Motor 1 - Dramatic video out of New Mexico published to social media on Monday shows the moment a truck driver smashed into a gas pump and destroyed a station while reportedly having a seizure behind the wheel. Thankfully no one was killed, and the driver reportedly walked away with just minor injuries.

A video from extrezionx on TikTok captured the entire event through a dash cam. Taken in front of a Speedway gas station in the small town of La Plata, the footage has an eerie Final Destination vibe to it. The clip contains some strong language so be advised before you click the play button. Considering this crash happens directly in front of the camera, a few F-bombs are certainly understandable.

I've always thought in another life I could have been a semi-truck driver. Ever since I joined the workforce post-college, I've always been jealous of people with jobs who don't have to take work home with them. Something where you clock in every day, complete your assigned task, then fuck off for the next however many hours and not have to think about work once until your next shift. When I worked in sales, I was constantly worried about my pipeline. If I had a bad week, it bled into the next. Now at Barstool I'm constantly scared to not be working. But driving a semi-truck... that's something I can get on board with. I enjoy long drives. Just put on my favorite podcast and drive through a new part of the country.  I know my assignment. Just take this giant load of Cheez-Its from Dayton to Atlanta. Stop at all my weigh stations. Get addicted to meth again. Pick up the occasional lot lizard at a Pilot Truck Spot  Get some anti-biotics at the ready-care the next day. Then never think about it again. That's the type of job my neurotic, overthinking brain needs. I can handle that much. Semi-truck drivers might have it figured out better than the rest of us.

Plus you might get to see some wild shit like this. I always appreciate a video on the internet that you know isn't fake. Nobody is faking that. From the commentary by the semi-truck driver, to the fact that nobody is insane enough to drive full speed into a gas pump for content. You can tell that's just a good ol' fashioned behind the wheel seizure that resulted in nothing more than a slightly fiery explosion and some minor injuries which means it's ok for me to blog.

I hope that semi-truck driver was still able to buy a lottery ticket at that gas station. When you have luck like that, you gotta capitalize on it as much as you can.
