Man Tries To Pose With Chevy Silverado, Gets Run Over: Video

Some folks do the dumbest things to make strangers on the Internet think they’re cool. That includes the Chevy Silverado owner featured here, who, in his quest to “do it for the ‘Gram,” ended up getting run over by his own Chevy Silverado pickup truck.

Recently making the rounds on social media, this video is brief and brutal. It starts with a heavily modified Chevy Silverado pickup truck, which appears as though it’s been “squatted” – that is, the suspension has been altered to add ride height in front and decrease ride height in the rear, giving it a considerable negative rake angle. The wheels and tires have also been modified with aftermarket components.

The owner (we’re guessing it’s the owner, at least) exits the cabin and lets the Chevy Silverado move ahead in drive, propping the door open as he goes. It looks as though he wants to “ghost ride the whip,” a popular stunt wherein the driver exits their vehicle and walks / dances next to it as the vehicle rolls forward without anyone behind the wheel. A random passenger is also seen hanging out of the rear window.

Things go alright at first, with the owner posing next to his truck and dancing as it rolls. However, after throwing out a few moves, it looks like the Chevy Silverado starts to pick up a little speed. The owner clearly isn’t ready, and starts to fall behind before accidentally catching his foot underneath the rear tire.

Unable to dislodge his foot, the dancing owner is thrown to the ground as his modified Chevy Silverado proceeds to run him over. We then hear a sickening snap noise as the owner’s bones shatter under the heavy pickup, all while the owner screams in pain.

It’s uncertain exactly what injuries the owner sustained, but rumor has it the femur is the culprit behind the snapping noise.

Lesson learned – don’t try this at home, kids. Likes aren’t gonna pay the medical bills.

      I love it when one of these things gets behind me at night. That angle points their headlights right in my back window while they tailgate.

      I strongly support his insurance refusing to pay! He should cover this out of pocket.

    There are many in our society that could not even challenge a tree stump in a general IQ test.

    If you want to walk beside your truck while acting like a fool, put the vehicle in park. 100% idiocy…

    Well if he wasn’t right next to his rolling truck, this wouldn’t have happened. If he was at least 6 inches away from his truck, he wouldn’t have got run over.

      If he was behind the steering wheel this would not have happened.

      If he did not have wheels all the way out from under his truck this would never have happened.

      If it was in park it would never have happened.

      If he had half a brain this would never have happened.

      I blame seat belts, helmet and air bags laws. These people used to regulate themselves out of society in the past in accidents but today they live.

    I had to laugh, he was so stupid. I mean, unless this is an old video that wasn’t released for insurance purposes or something, this fad is so old anyway, plus, he can’t dance worth a crap. So the truck was simply slapping his dumb ass down.

    To be honest, I’ve put a truck in gear and walked beside it while it was rolling. However, there was also a trailer hooked up to it, the truck had a super low Granny gear and I was throwing hay bails on it, IN A HUGE FIELD. Not dancing like an idiot.

    I saw the original video on tiktok, and the follow up a few days later. He broke his arm. He thinks the tire bounced off his leg and landed on his arm. Doesnt make sense to me, but considering he was stupid enough to do this, its no surprise thats how he thinks it happened.

    While not the brightest idea ever acted out, who was he harming by doing this and what wrong was he doing to someone- none, except to himself unfortunately. I feel horrible for him, snapping a femur may result in permanent disability and chronic pain. While may not be a brilliant move, the least people could do would be to show a little sympathy and compassion for him. Not on this planet in these wicked times. May God send mercy for a speedy recovery.

      I don’t have compassion for blatantly stupid people who go out of their ways to act like idiots and do very stupid things that result in them injuring themselves.

      An accident, yes. But for people like this NO!

    Surely he broke his fibia or tibia, as it was his lower leg feeling the most stress. Femur seems unlikely.

      Someone above said he broke his arm. Rewatching the video, that does fit well. The crack happens as his hands hit the ground. Regardless, thigh was pretty fast from any significant forces.

    At geodotts; your post is based on assumption rather than fact. I would neither have a truck like that nor take a vaccination that has not been well enough developed and tested. A mask and clean habits kept me safe at work when others sat at home scared of air. The topic is about the truck and the stupidity of the owner’s actions. People tend to stray from topics too quickly.

    He almost had it. Honestly I think the negative tone from all the comments is in people making snap judgements and trying hard to match to disaproving tone of the article itself. Thats cheugy. Bad things happen at rodeos, truck pulls, and monster truck rallies but we don’t call them stupid so there is an unfair bias.

    Always playing it safe is boring. I do not think he took unecessary risks and really do not see how his pants got caught under the truck on account of being so skinny. I do not see how being trapped under a truck for a second is gonna snap a femur or him breaking his arm by falling down unless he has a bone deficiency. I don’t think he got hurt and ppl are lying. So really exagerrated harm and claims of stupidity. Yall act like he gorilla glue girl or something smh.

    As a Hospital employee, these stunts will increase our health insurance cost (or taxes if he was insured by the state) and slows access to medical care for others. Most people only care when they are the “other” that has to wait for care.

    Not stupider than a truck pull or a monster truck rally or a rodeo. I think race plays a factor in the number of negative comments. Total bias.
