I've never seen it before. It reminds me of that time years ago when I was riding with a friend in his 61 Ford pickup and he rolled it. We got out and flipped it over with help from some other friends. Then the engine caught fire. The only thing we could do to put it out was throw full bottles of beer at the engine, and when each one shattered, part of the fire would go out. It was about a 4 beer fire. What a tragedy.
It started up, and we drove home.

A case of clear thinking in response to a bizarre truck rollover and fire in the middle of a parking lot. Just a good thing there was beer right there for just such an emergency.

This makes me woozy just looking at it. Like one of my "heights" nightmares.

The image of the car on the right seems to have been altered? Possibly on the film rather than photoshopped.

What I see is a lot of work just to lay there.
