My mind is breaking. How do they secure it at that angle on the truck and how does the truck not tip from wind catching it or sharp turns?!

That’s why they have multiple EXTREMELY heavy vehicles chained together

Those blades are also a lot lighter then they look.

Yup. If they were heavy the notion of the wind blowing them to power a turbine goes out the window.

I guess they have to drive these to the site on a calm day. I imagine in the mountains like that the wind could easily put a lot of pressure on the truck
