The first video I tried to load was a GMC pulling a 1960's era singlewide down a residential street.

But fear not, there's always that one.....

Besides, it was meant to be funny so take it as you will....

I believe the issue was an amateur with no plan pulling the single wide through a ditch which jumped out and got him. And far be it from me to stir controvery but he was a Chevy or GMC driver... just saying.... If you have to get a permit with routes I bet they wouldn't have allowed the route this guy took. Good thing I have never done anything dumb or at least most of it was before smart phones with cameras and video recording capability.

Yeah, I think a few of us are thankful for the lack of technology back in the day. Heck, when I got my drivers license they didn't even put your picture on it back then! I'm sure I'm not alone.....
