This story is really odd.
Unless he had a huge log on the top of his load and the wrappers not tight and was at a bad side angle at the same time…. We need more info on this one, Hope its forthcoming.
“We need more info on this one”. Why?
Perhaps because some people are interested in what circumstances cause centers of gravity to shift so that they do not get themselves into the same pickle.
It may have been his airbags failed, along with a bit too much speed.
