When I first watched it, I sank back in my chair, stopped the clip at impact, and said a prayer for the occupants.
No way in hell they felt anything else by the next frame..
As for the truck driver, I hope he can recover from this, in no way could he have avoided this fateful moment in time.

That's one of the most horrific things that I've ever seen.

Well with all of these comments, I see no reason to watch the clip -- and wonder what the purpose is?

... to reinforce that we should drive for the conditions of the road... not the number posted on the sign.  Everyone of those vehicles was going too fast!

Very sad.
Kinda made me ill also.

Its worth watching to remind a person how quickly things can go from ok to serious problems.

Looked like to me the driver saw brake lights ahead and tapped theirs as well.  It went downhill from there.  Watch your following distances....

Actually, this helps me out a bit. This is exactly what happened to my sister 13 years ago. It helps because I know now that she didn't feel a thing. Pain never stops.

I tired to find out where this happened. Evidently it is in Russia.

I pray for you and your family Gsun.

It's a perfect example of how every moment we breath is a gift and the moments after this happens, every one around you lives change....
