Russia
Survived
Don’t worry, surviving in Russia is only a temporary issue. May this man one day succeed in his quest to solve this vexing problem.
Probably. That did not look good
It seems likely. That vehicle was just swallowed by a flooding river. It’s technically possible the occupants escaped, but unlikely.
I was hoping for a no, but thanks for the realistic analysis.
It’s not easy for people to escape a submerged vehicle in still body of water, especially if the vehicle flips. Add in a raging river tumbling everything around, pushing everywhere… Even if you were able to escape the vehicle I don’t think your chances of making it to shore from the middle would be good.
I know :(
I wouldn’t drive over that thing in any conditions.
Bridge needs more triangles…
Dang Poly Bridge 3 is out?
