Whoa. Three cars suddenly lifted off the ground by an unseen force. It appears to be from China. The only thing I can figure is there is some kind of cable across the road that suddenly lifted up, catching those three cars. But the angles are all wrong, and there are other cars that are unaffected. I suppose it could be faked, and it is second generation, recorded off of another TV. But, damn, that looks weird.
I am sure you have seen other videos that more clearly show the effect of running into downed cables–that is what happens. It looks like there was a cable mainly flat on road and when the first vehicle hit the section that was up, the additional tension raised the cable enough to affect the other two cars.
Promo for the Force Awakens.
That is why you should never drive with your Hairless Hairless Chinese Crested Dog when it has flatulence.
Compact gif version:
I was reading speculation that there is a cable fixed high to the left and the street sweeper on the right snagged and wound it up. The sweeper stops at the right time, even though the driver probably wouldn’t have been able to see the cars bouncing up.
Yeh, someone runs out from the curb to warn the streetsweeper to stop.
I wonder what was going through the mind of the people in the lifted vehicles, particularly the longest one that was lifted in the rear.
One of the tires actually pooped off. Wow.
It’s hard to believe the street sweeper could be strong enough and heavy enough to lift all that without lifting itself, or even going off course.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the drivers and passengers also pooped.
Didn’t something like this happen in the first season of Marvel’s Agents of Shield? I think Graviton did it.
LOL!
I meant “Popped” of course. :smack:

Dammit, Magneto!
Good Lord where did you find that?
Just, Why?

I was hoping it was the Hand of God, to protect the pedestrians trying to cross.
So, from that video that astro linked to, it looks like the street sweeper’s rotating brush caught the cable and it began wrapping around it? I couldn’t understand the audio, but there was some footage of the cable wrapped around the brush, I think.
