Newly released dashcam footage of an accident that left a massive semitruck dangling from a bridge earlier this year is going viral—and for good reason.
The shocking footage of the Kentucky four-vehicle crash, which unfolded Mar.1, on the Clark Memorial Bridge in Louisville, Kentucky, is absolutely terrifying.
The accident allegedly took place after Trevor W. Branham, 33, lost control of his vehicle, crossed into the wrong lanes, hit another car, then struck the semitruck in question.
Sydney Thomas, 26, was reportedly driving the semitruck, which was sent off the bridge and dangling—an unimaginable scenario.

Fortunately, Thomas wasn’t injured in the astonishing event. She spoke out this week about what unfolded that day, how she believes God heard her prayers and how she’s faring.
“Sometimes you pray, and I’m guilty of this: I pray, and I don’t think God is listening,” she told WHAS-TV. “But He was that day.”
Her dad, Marc Thomas, told the outlet he, too, believes the Lord was watching over her.
“It didn’t really hit me until I looked over to my right [while crossing the Kennedy Bridge] and I’d seen that equipment hanging into the air,” he said. “That [rescue] was nothing but God displaying Himself to me.”
Sydney Thomas explained what led the truck to go off the bridge, noting the suspension on the vehicle went out and she lost total control—a shocking horror that left her dangling 100 feet over the Ohio River, as WHAS-TV noted.
“When I went through the railing, I was like, ‘Wow, this is a crazy way to die,'” she said, noting she really believed her life would come to an end.
Thomas hung for 40 minutes until firefighters were able to use a crane to lift someone down to reach her. She remained still the whole time, fearing movement would send the truck plummeting into the water.
Louisville firefighter Bryce Carden soon appeared at her window mid-air latched to a harness and hanging from the crane. He asked if he could pray with her – and the two proceeded to invoke the Lord.
“She was praying a lot,” Carden told WHAS-TV. “And I prayed with her.”
