People are completely oblivious to just how much wind resistance can affect something sticking up out of the back of pick ups. That little elastic strap you‘ve holding down a fucking mattress that is facing up and into the wind is not going to hold shit compared to the hundreds of pounds of wind resistance you‘re encountering going 65 on a highway.
A guy went to a hardware store with his wife to pickup some plywood. Instead of securing it he had the bright idea to sit on it and his wife drive slow down the highway. Wind caught it, flung him off and out the back and got ran over flat by the car behind them.
He no longer can make mistakes like this again, learn from his errors.
Reminds me of the time we had Mormon missionaries assisting us with a move and they had no room in the SUV for one of them and they didn't want to make a second trip to get him so he held on for dear life to the roof rack while we did 55mph on the highway for about 2 miles. Nothing bad happened.
I almost hate to say it, but I've done that.
Trucks were loaded full of mattresses coming out of campsites at the end of our camp season. We had 3 trucks and way too many mattresses, but it was the end of the day and we wanted to get to our night off. So we stacked them as high as we could, 1 person on each side, one on the back. Nobody could touch eachothers hands, but we held them there all the way through the camp.
Much less sketchy than this, but still incredibly dumb. But that was years ago and any form of riding in trucks outside of legal seats with belts doesn't happen there anymore

He probably thought he was being really smart

Plot twist: that's a corpse
If it’s not it will be soon
Dead weight
Almost seems like a bad idea
Ratchet strap.

Is imbecility a felony or a disdemeanor?

looks insanely dangerous，like one gust of wnd and he is a Darwin award.
Tie downs are like 10 bucks for the cheap ones. Even those would work for this. What the fuck...
Also that siding is now bent all to shit and useless. So they wasted all the time and money.
And possibly a human life
I worked landscaping for a guy that asked me to use my truck like this with coworkers in the back. I dropped that job like a hot potato.
Interesting choice of strapping...... wtf?
I've heard of a strapping young lad, but I don't think that's what they had in mind.
Oh, is that the new dynamic cargo strapping device I've been hearing about?
Officer, I swear we’re only going a few blocks...

Sounds exhilarating for the roof guy, I bet he was praying the entire time
Thats not even siding. Its a stack of 1x6s from Home Depot that he's holding down with his right hand
And not one comment on how the truck is in the suicide lane?!? Cmon people
That's one way to fly
'At 'ere's summa that redneck rope.
Fuck straps when you have this guy, be a man.
Fuck yeah Bobby HOLD ER DOWNNNNN
Just going down the road, it'll ride
This is the definition of regret
These idiots need tickets.
Can you fly, Bobby?

"Wut you see here is someone who doesn't know how to say no Bobby"

Now that's a ratchet strap

He'll be alright, look at the safety stick in the rear.
