Did I just watch someone die?
According to this the driver survived:

Happened in the village of Uryum in Eastern Russia.
probable location in google maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/53°10’09.1"N+118°07’00.0"E/@53.1675162,118.1063825,2661m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d53.1691944!4d118.1166667?entry=ttu
River is the Shilka river, a branch of the Amur river.
It seems likely. That vehicle was just swallowed by a flooding river. It’s technically possible the occupants escaped, but unlikely.
It’s not easy for people to escape a submerged vehicle in still body of water, especially if the vehicle flips. Add in a raging river tumbling everything around, pushing everywhere… Even if you were able to escape the vehicle I don’t think your chances of making it to shore from the middle would be good.
I wouldn’t drive over that thing in any conditions.
Do some of the Lemmy apps have a time scroll for videos /gifs? I’m on liftoff and I hate being unable controlmthe playback
It’s really good, would love an open source option, but Sync is so much better right now than any other app
Infinity does for videos, not for gifs. It’s better to request the feature for an alternative to sync, as sync is spyware and adware.
Rickety my arse: look how the bridge put itself back together again after it dropped the van, all in time for the next van.
Bridge needs more triangles…
