Roller coasters are fun, but they can't match the exhilaration of being pushed in a wheelchair attached to the front of a semi-truck down a highway at 50 MPH.

In South Bend, Indiana, a 21-year-old man accidentally pulled his wheelchair out in front of a turning semi. Somehow, the handle bars from his wheelchair became lodged in the front grill of the truck. Meanwhile, the driver, high up in the cabin, had no idea he had picked up a stowaway and began to drive down the highway.

Luckily, it wasn't an interstate, so the truck kept a constant speed of about 50 MPH. Calls started to come in to the State Highway Patrol that a man was attached to a front of a truck. At first, the cops thought they were pranks, but went to investigate anyway.

The truck made another stop and it was there that police found the man in the wheelchair, seemingly unfazed, stuck to the front of the truck. When the driver was summoned out the cab, he was baffled as to how the man had gotten there.

Everyone is ok, but the wheelchair man did spill his soda in his lap.

if the wheelchair had gone over fifty five miles per hour it would have armed the bomb.

He pushed me!
He pushed you out of the way of that TRUCK!
Listen, he's in a better place.
He's in the GRILL of the truck!
He was my best friend!
Yeah? Well then you should know something. When he was pushing me, he mentioned something about not liking you.

And, had it gone 88 MPH, it would have armed the Flux Capacitor!
