[Video below.] In this fascinating but frightening video clip taken by a passerby, a Dodge minivan that drove by a construction zone in Manhattan is seen being accidentally hit and flipped over by a wrecking ball. Onlookers watched in horror as the vehicle turned over.
Thankfully, the driver escaped with minor injuries. The car was all but totaled.

holy cow!!!!!!!!!
What a dope! The arrogant driver should have his license suspeded & be arrested!
was the street closed off?
Is this video real? I couldn’t find any record of it anywhere else…
This is too unbelievable. It must have been a movie shoot.
thanks for that video
it is not real because they are not allowed to use recking balls in n.y.c.
OH EM GEE!!!
this looks fake..does anyone agree with me?
just look closely, it doesnt look real at all..
A real wrecking ball that size is so much heavier than the car that it would not have just stopped like that when it hit the car. This one is just a hollow metal ball. I also doubt that a crane like could even lift and swing a solid ball that size without flipping over.
How comes this was videoed JUST at that moment? I never saw this on the news anywhere. I would like to know whether this was genuine.
why isn’t the road blocked off ?
You can hear someone yell “Cut!”
i think its fake cuz the road doesnt even look blocked off, there are people walking on the sidewalk in the wrecking balls path. unless sum1 hopped in and had fun. but i cant find it anywhere on the news
It’s true. You can hear cut and you see a camaraman on the left side of the sreen. there people walking to the accident and a camaraman standing still and giving his camera to his assistent
Its for a movie
this clip is from a movie called “The Other Guys.” Great movie, you should all watch it! http://www.snopes.com/photos/accident/wreckingball.asp
