A viral video making rounds on X (formerly Twitter) captures a heart-stopping moment where a truck driver has a narrow escape from disaster. The footage, which has already gained over 1.7 million views and 1,900 likes, shows a road caving in just seconds after the truck crosses it, leaving viewers in shock.
The video shows a stretch of road that appears to be severely eroded by a powerful water current flowing underneath. The surface is visibly unstable, with cracks hinting at an imminent collapse. Despite the dangerous condition, a truck driver decides to take the risk and drives across.

Just as the vehicle reaches the other side, the inevitable happens—the road caves in, breaking apart and tumbling into the rushing waters below. Had the truck been just a few seconds slower, it would have gone down with the road, turning the close call into a devastating tragedy.
