“Wow…just wow” are the first words that come to mind after watching this chilling security camera footage of a dumpster truck with apparently faulty brakes that came rolling down a steep road in Sochi, the Russian city that recently hosted the 2014 Olympic Winter Games.

The orange truck crushed two Toyota sedans, one of which was literally planted into the ground and turned into a thin sheet of metal and plastics.

What’s even more amazing is that the driver of the newer white Corolla had just parked his car there and was getting out when he saw the truck approaching. Like the other man in the blue shirt seen on your left hand corner, he instinctively ran to safety.

It’s a miracle that no one was hurt in this incident.
