Pic a Day:OOPS!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**special-K** · 11-04-2008, 04:43 PM

Got another idea.How about we post up our favorite OOPS pictures one a day?I have a couple I came across so I thought I`d give it a try.

woodridge · 11-04-2008, 04:45 PM

I'd like to know the story behind that one.

**special-K** · 11-04-2008, 04:54 PM

Yeah,me too.Everytime I see it.I don`t know if it was stolen...owner reported stolen rather than wrecked...rear sunk when dumping and rolled or slid down underwater...????.It was totally submerged.Wouldn`t the hoist have to be raised when it went in?

OOPS

PanelDeland · 11-04-2008, 05:18 PM

That's not an oops DD.The truck didn't even come off the trailer.I guess the oops part is where the trailer came off the tow vehicle.

judging by the tire to fender well drop...id say the weight pushed the truck down and lifted the riggers off the ground, or its in the process of pulling forward sense its moved

Great OOPSes!!!

CG · 11-04-2008, 08:44 PM

I like seeing oops pictures, but looking at accident pictures where someone was obviously killed just isnt the same thing as an oops picture in my book.

Don't lose the fear either. I was the nearest gound to one of those trucks. Almost killed me. I cant even describe what my healing burns looked and smelled like. It left my chest purple shoulder to shoulder where it entered. It left multiple round holes up to 1.50" in diameter in my legs from where the electricity exited my body. My pants were burnt and my shoes partially melted. They say the closet safe distance is ten feet. Don't trust that either.
Sorry I dont mean to hijack, but this is a topic that is pretty personal to me.

I have no idea how he got into the water.
But the damage on the truck looks like it laid over on the driver's side, look @ hood & RF fender, they're both crammed to the right.
He could have had:

The truck not level, side to side.
Some stuff stuck in the "nose" of the box, making it very top heavy as it was raised.
The rear, drive tires, sink as he was raising the box.
Or, a combination of any of the above.

Don't even ask me why I would know such things!
