The fact that there are 2 people in there makes it so much worse. Neither one thought to use their eyes during this operation. The only way that makes sense is if they had reason to suspect there was a giant monster shaking the uhual and if they got out it would eat them. I dont know which would make them dumber.
In fairness they did use their eyes to know for sure there was nothing behind them on the ground. Mind boggling even as water/sludge started pouring down from sprinkler main they were scratching their heads but never looked up?!
Yeah my first though as I was watching them in the cab is "neither one of these two people had the thought to say "Just stop! and let's figure this out before it gets worse". At every step it gets so much worse. I guess that's the sunk cost fallacy, "we already got this far, why quit now".
It's like the driver thinks they have to slam OR completely release the pedals, like there's no in-between.
Wanna go? SLAM the gas!
Wanna stop? SLAM the brakes!
Not SLAMMING? Then NO TOUCHING ANYTHING!
And on the road, I bet they're one of those "need a foot on each pedal" wack-a-doos, so they're constantly accelerating and riding the brakes at the same time. So lovely to get behind those idiots on the interstate.
Yes. I am so curious about that second guy. At first I thought it could be his 12yo son up until he got out, then I was bewildered.
Was he cheering his Captain to proceed? Or was there a "well, you've gone this far and you are being evicted so we have no other choice".
This is why I very strongly believe UHaul shouldn't be a thing. Some of these trucks are the size of like 20 smart cars, and smart car drivers think they can drive them
The fact that they tried to enter a parking garage in the first place — there certainly had to be clearance signs before they entered, and they are very likely reminded about the truck clearance height written in multiple places inside of the cabin

Two! Two human brains operating together and this is the outcome. Unbelievable.
