I saw that on the news tonight, absolutely amazing. Thank goodness the wheels on the chair held up to the speed.

Some good advertising and marketing for the wheelchair company, if they so wish to pursue... extra cash for the guy in the chair as well, if things worked out...

Good thing he was ok... what a ride....

Bet the driver and company that own the truck are having a tall drink right about now...
