As the Saturday of Destruction continues, we bring you this public service announcement: don’t get in the way of a train, because they always win. Well, not always, as the very first of these videos shows a test in England in 1984 when they rammed a 100-mph locomotive into a nuclear-containment container to prove that the nukes would not leak out. The container was probably empty of nukes at the time of the test, but as insano as the test is, who can be sure? The train lost big. The other videos show that semi trucks and busses don’t have the staying power of those English nuke holders.

I wonder if the trucker in the third video every realized his load was missing. Reminds me of Clint Eastwood’s mom and the tow truck in “Every which way but loose”
