Default Disturbing Video with a JKU. (Viewer Digression is Advised)

Has anyone see this video? I can't believe the JKU landed back on its Wheels. You know that people either died or were seriously Injured. Just wondering how badly people in the JKU were injured. Also my thoughts with the other drivers as well.

Why we need self-driving trucks, and all all loads over a certain size and length on rails.
Heartbreaking to see, was totally avoidable.
Passenger cars getting lighter, smaller, more fuel efficient. Trucks (semis) gettin longer, heavier ; the Laws of Physics make this a deadly equation.

Looks like the JKU was 2nd inline. The first car looks like a Carolla went under the JKU Flipping it upwards then the corolla hit the next car... looks like dominos with cars. You can see the JKU at the end landing upright with the headlights on. The poor people stuck in traffic had no idea what was going on.

Well at least no one died. I can't believe that JKU did a Barrel Roll in Mid Air. Good thing it landed on it wheels or it could have been worse.
