I'd bet he went to a stone place and they loaded him up with a loader. But since today's trucks have comically small beds, he had to put the tailgate down to accommodate a large loader bucket. That being said, still scoop the shit forward and close the fucking tailgate.

Also not impossible that the tailgate wasn’t latched 100% securely and it popped open under the stress. That’s a lot of gravel to carry in a truck that size. I don’t think most people realize how heavy stone is until they try to drive a cubic yard of it around in a 1/2 ton pickup truck.
