I saw a similar video a couple of years ago, but this one happened at a gas station and the idiot was moving much faster, driving a SD Crew Cab with his son aboard. The canopy came square down on the truck, JUST behind the front seats. And plenty of stations have canopies lower then 15', usually the one you just have to use out in the back country. Pull in to the first pump, keeping an eye on the 5er and the canopy edge, stretch the hose out and then get the guy(s) who pulled behind you outta the way so you can back out.

That is an old video it was posted on here a long time ago. He is lucky no one was at the drive thru it would have killed them, he almost killed himself as it is.
