    I think he deserves it for even sticking his arm out of the truck. I've never understood why people do that!

    Yeah, I know why he did it but I just don't understand what makes people think they can move a 3500+ vehicle away from an immobile object. Haha

    I don't think he was thinking he'd pivot the truck. Most likely reaching out to pat the tree to say hi and then realized his arm was in a bad position.

    He wasn't really thinking that was he?!:eek:

    I got the impression he was just reaching out to feel the tree for kicks and held on a little too long basically and got his arm in a bad spot.


    That looking fucking brutal though! Dear god:eek: I cringed so bad... The slo-mo didn't help any. haha. You can just see the point where sheer pain runs up his arm!
