Ok….. I really think we have enough footage for YouTube!
Thankfully, nobody was hurt in this accident; but, they did not adhere to the Safety First sign.
Speaking of accidents, a friend and I saw this on a motorcycle trip when we took a break at Eagle Nest, NM. It's not pretty.

What’s more amazing is watching the guy on the bike just stand there watching his buddy push that van by himself over the tracks. I dunno.

Underwater “Waterfall” off the island of Mauritius
Located at the Southwestern tip of the island you will find a fascinating illusion. When viewed from above, a runoff of sand and silt deposits creates the impression of an ‘underwater waterfall’.

Built in the 1240s by the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II in southeast Italy, Castel del Monte (Castle of the Mount) features an unusual octagonal design. Eight stone walls stretch between eight octagonal towers and enclose an octagonal courtyard. Each of the two floors also has eight trapezoidal rooms. Acclaimed and protected as a World Heritage Site in 1996, the castle symbolically reflects a harmonious integration of classical Roman, Arabic, and medieval architecture and design.

Rest assured, this probably wasn’t the first dump truck he’s hitched a ride from.
I think it’s 90 km. If it was mph, that truck would be bouncing all over the place.
