So long old friend. Idiot truck drivers knew you well...

Apparently this wasn't a case of 8 inches being enough to satisfy . . .

Hopefully, Penske is down to truck. Hopefully, he won't be to big to fit.

Just remember, you can a bridge, but you can't raise I.D. Tentee's IQ.

I wonder how many insurance companies are subscribed to that channel so they know what claims they can deny.

From the 11foot8.com FAQ:

Will insurance cover the damages?

Most truck rental insurance policies specifically exclude overhead damage from coverage. However, a good auto insurance or liability insurance might pick up the tab. Check with your agent. Or even better – don’t hit the bridge!

Imagine getting back to the shop and having to tell your boss that you are the first one to hit the newly raised bridge... And it's on youtube already.

It only took three weeks for someone to challenge the raised bridge. They lost.

It's teasing us.....

The BBC has a feature about the can opener bridge.

Is there a guy in Vegas taking bets on when the first truck will get "opened"?

How much do you want to bet that's happening right now?

It looks like the bridge has reopened and it looks a lot better than the old bridge.

I was wondering how they were going to do. It looks very simple.

I was really surprised at the size of the legs supporting the jacks. I also didn't see any blocking to deal with a jack leak down.

Here's the latest on the project. Pretty damn cool how it's being done.

There will still be carnage, just less of it, because some of the box trucks that couldn't fit before, will fit now.

Jürgen Henn has said that he would gladly give up his site and YouTube if it meant fewer accidents. We might get fewer videos, but it's still a good thing.

It'd need another 6 inches ....

That's something a man doesn't want to hear in bed.
