do you know why he ran initially and went balls out? was he wanted for something? or just strait up out his mind with no respekt for life??? lmk if any info on that.. thanks
IKR? At least he got the bad guy too. Imagine if they all got spiked, and the perp didn't. *That* would be an ugly after-action debrief with the Chief. 🙂
The pursuers should have held back. They knew spikes were being deployed, they could see it ahead. It was a straight section of road, they'd have caught up in no time. Definitely something to come out in their debrief! But they can't blame the spiker if they only leave a two second gap. A two second gap is what ordinary drivers should leave to the car in front, not one that's going to get spiked at 80mph!
Most people are missing the part at the end of the video where the officer says the spike strip cable was broke when the suspect drove past, so he couldn't pull the strip back and all the other officers got spiked. Can't really put the blame on him.

@@trumanhw Did you see how his left hand ONLY was in the air, well the gun was most likely in his right hand behind the driver door. Even if he dropped it police dont take risky chances, it's a put your both hands in the air or die kinda deal. VERY simple even for a criminal in distress, you have only 2 options. From a far enough distance and/or at night If you pull a toy gun, a cell phone, a sharpie heck even a tootbrush and motion like you have a gun towards cops when they are chasing you then they will shoot you and be completely justified doing so. Remember they have to make LIFE AND DEATH split second decisions under pressure. In this case it was night time, they look to be at least 80ft. or more away from the guy, he's already shot at the police, he's been driving like a madman putting countless lives at risk, he's not showing both hands instead he is hiding one hand behind the door. When you total all these circumstances up it makes complete sense why they had to shoot him even though it is really sad and most likely they don't want to have to shoot anyone.

@@dons8122also sorry but just wondering if you’ve ever heard of people saying you can’t drive on run flats like normal tires? 😂 I’ve heard that a few times just thought I’d share the experience
No one who drives trucks like these are. Wide ass truck to start with, double tires, spewing toxic black smoke into the air (polluting one of the most beautiful states in the country mind you). Piece of shit deserved what he got
I’ve watched many videos recently on the Arkansas State Police activity and I’m so impressed with the Bravery, skills, judgement and teamwork to stop insane behavior. When an Officer has to make split decisions 100+mph and persue discard for Law and Law Inforcement, there is nothing guaranteed. The outcome being so unpredictable raises the stakes. I totally respect the policy that Arkansas has taken. Not many States have the Balls to enforce the Laws. God Bless all that defend this Country.
21 doing a PIT on the SUV at 100+ mph was amazing. Dude was in a Charger and LITERALLY "charged" when the other officer {with a damaged engine from the first PIT attempt} said "21, get up here!" or something.
@@ethankincaid7334Arkansas state police got a lot of money for looking the other way while the Clinton crime syndicate did their thing. A lot of that money was 9/11 money, to militarize the PD. Believe those chargers are modified. Listen to the exhaust tone. Coolers garage stii lives and boss Hogg still counts his moneybags.
@@ComradeCrusty you're insane if you think Arkansas has anymore crazy pd equipment than the rest of the US. Take a look at the LA and NY department toys whenever they deal with riots. Los Angeles alone has enough tanks to take over the west coast.
I love it! These Troopers are badass! They are amazing at chases and pits! In my state of Washington we have a No Chase law. You can steal a vehicle and drive away with no cops chasing you.
Given today's video technology and how fast it hits the air and the web, it's their claim to fame of 5 minutes or more and the egotistical boost they believe they deserve.
Not much he could have done. At 25:16 the trooper states his pull cable snapped when the truck hit the spikes. And he obviously isn't going to run out into traffic to grab them just to save a few tires. Not much he can do other than chalk it up to "shit happens in real life" and have a chuckle about it later.
@@SG-us4gzOne of the life lesson I heard from watching one of the youtube videos (which is soldiers reaction to Fury) was "Stupid shit is going to happen." So, that applies everywhere, including dangerous jobs.
He did warn them the spikes were there and across the whole road, at that point it's on the officers who chose to spike themselves rather than wait for it to be clear
That was the single most effective spike strip I have ever seen. Edit: It is crazy how many people in the comments section missed the mentioned-numerous-times part where the spike strip cable broke when that big-ass truck drove over it, so there was no way for the Trooper who deployed it to pull it back afterwards like he normally would.
I hear ya. But, during such a deployment, had they backed off a bit more and kept a bit more space between units, they could have allowed for a bit more time for the first couple of units and the deploying officer to communicate to the others what's going on. This would have allowed, after the first unit or two got spiked, for the remaining units to maneuver around the spikes or give a second for the spikes to be removed. I know this would have caused the suspect to gain some lead, but given the area and empty roads, this seems to be a situation that would have fairly easily allowed for the officers to space out a bit more, or to have a couple lead units on his tail while others hang back some without any of this risking losing much ground on the truck. These guys can catch up on that truck in no time--especially considering that if the spikes work just as they did and he's got flats. Worst case is the spikes don't work so the units get right back up on his ass and try something else. I know hindsight is 20/20. And I'm not an expert. But, when using maneuvers like spike strip deployment, it is obvious that a number of different outcomes can result, including malfunction, so it is on the officers to plan and prepare as best as possible. They need to maintain chase while also strategically exercising the necessary cautions as best as can be done in the situation. My overall point for this one is that it's a good learning experience, and in the future, more strategic positioning could likely have helped.
What WAS missing was the 2nd officer either pulling his spikes back (after the first spikes were successful), or announcing right away that his spikes were in the middle of the road. I didn't hear him announce that until after a couple officers were spiked.
@@meridius- we cannot see anything definitive in the video; but we can hear one officer saying to he is still moving and another officer, whose car was 2nd or 3rd to the scene saying "show me your hands". There is nothing in the video that could reasonably suggest that the officer shot that final round just because he was still moving, and as a result I will give the offer the benefit of the doubt here and say he was raising his gun again. I think this was a tragic case of "suicide by cop" ultimately, at first he thought he might get away but when he realized he wasn't going to he shot into the air so that he was killed when it was ended.
Shout out to Arkansas State Police. GREAT work. What a chase and it ended right. Another criminal in custody. We appreciate all you do! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Keep arresting these criminals and hopefully the Courts will sentence them to lengthy incarcerations.
Yep, many tires lost their lives in this pursuit, I wonder if they will have funerals and a parade for each tire and their tire families will have to be notified.
@@dougk5187 Mrs. Michelin, I'm sorry but your husband has passed away in the line of duty. He had a GoodYear, maybe the best he has ever done. Chief Yokohama and Sergeant Hankook sends their deepest condolences. The sad news of his passing went Continental. Even Chief of Police Mr. Pirelli from Naples, Italy has sent a formal letter stating he will be attending his funeral. I will make sure Cooper will never forget how brave and courageous his father was in the line of duty and a great man in General. He will be deeply missed at Firestone Police Department.
As someone who has been in countless vehicle pursuits, that first trooper was phenomenal. A little close, but great control and not letting the suspect feel any relief. That driving is what we do that puts the pressure on them and makes them feel like they can't shake us. Usually they wreck out after that
That makes them more reckless and y’all speeding through red lights and blowing passed intersections endangering the lives of civilians isn’t justice nor brave! it’s irresponsible and selfish.
@@isaiah2536 we slow down and clear intersections, it's part of pursuit training. Additionally, I guess we just teach the lesson that if you get in a car and go fast we will let you get away?
He was pretty shitty tbh. He was way too close to the guy going through where he knew the spike strips were. And then he kept hogging the damn road after he hit them and almost got hit by another cruiser trying to get around him instead of getting his ass the fuck out of the way.. I definitely wouldn't say he was phenomenal. Seemed more like a dumbass to me.
Do you know how many innocent lives are taken at the hands of police every year? Do you know how few of those cases see any justice? Is there logic to giving cops qualified immunity? I would argue they should have stricter, almost unreasonable punishments, not lesser ones. A truck driver, being a professional driver, is expected to know traffic laws better than an average person and will have stricter punishments for breaking the laws and experience less leniency from the courts. Why do we not apply this standard to people who are running around in uniforms shooting people? Cops should not have immunity. One single innocent life taken under the color of law should mean public execution for the entire department... And their families... Cause we don't want their spawn coming back and becoming a murderous cop either.
@@Misfit1336 This is why people give our peace officers a bad name. How about pay them higher salaries so they can support their families and children(spawn) comfortably. Give them the highest educational classes on Local Laws and Tactical High Speed Firearm Use to Protect citizens. 😊
Best chase I’ve seen in a long time possibly ever. He did every single thing he could to get away. Floored it, brake checked, I think he took it off road, smoke them out rolling coal, floor it again, shoot at them and nothing worked not a single thing. I’d have just stopped once I seen them riding my bumper and me gaining no ground. Then once your start shooting and they don’t back off….. I’d have tucked my tail and gave in

@@Dreas_Diaz88 That's a shame. Not a very smart decision. The police put more people in danger by goin on a pursuit by the way. They have a license plate. They can literally just follow up and contain the threat instead of forcing a fight or flight response. All kinds of inept behavior from untrained idiots.
😂😂… but we can’t blame the officer, at the end he told that when truck went over it broke the cable, he yelled in the radio also but someone else was speaking at same time and the cars was too fast to react.
watching this chase, I can only think that this guy is about to lose it all...a nice truck, his place to live, his freedom, everything. Couldn't imagine what goes through the minds of people getting into trouble , or fleeing like this from the cops....
He undoubtedly had a whole boatload of heinous crimes committed that he was sure they would uncover once they apprehended him. The moron chose to Fade To Black instead.
People who end up in these situations aren't thinkers. They are feelers. They are not accustomed to intellectually dominant thought processes. Anyone who tries to escape city police, county sheriffs and state troopers in a giant truck is not thinking anything.

He was just lost and made a very poor mistake costing him his life and risking these great brave law enforcement officers who protect and serve us people against people even who turn out to do something like this. RIP Scotty. You were a good person in my eyes. Rest easy and enjoy some peace, we all deserve peace. This was also a suicide by cop incident for he left letters.

So sorry for your loss. Thanks for letting viewers know about your friend, and the terrible pain he was in to plan this. So very sad, all around. I've tagged your comment on many comments below so they will read your post, also, Sherrey
I read the spike comments before watching, so I knew what was coming, but DAMN! What a deflating development for those officers, literally and figuratively.
Nice job by the officers to keep themselves and the public safe. I don't understand the mindset of these scumbags (and I don't use the term lightly) who think it is okay to fire on police. If you do that, you deserve what you get. All good wishes to our LEO out there.
I cant even imagine chasing a suspect in a pursuit and having to run the red lights right after him, not knowing if your life will end in a blink of an eye because someone unaware drives through their green light on the opposing intersection and may even be speeding because its late and trying to get home. He ran so many red lights and every time the cop followed behind him my heart sunk for a split second.
yes and no. a professionally trained pursuit driver VS a kid in a diesel pick up truck and he barely kept up i feel like they could use some persuit training and where was the helicopter?
@@Misfit1336How many cops have you heard that end up facing criminal charges from their poor job performance? Three officers in San Antonio are facing charges right now. I’d say them being accountable for their job performance is getting better. The three being charged in San Antonio shot a woman holding a knife in her kitchen from the outside of her apartment. She had mental illness and there was no reason to shoot her when they clearly had a window and wall between them and her.
At the end there, where the suspect is just standing high and waving his pistol without firing, you can tell he just wants to be put down. He's committed to forcing the cops to give him a quick end at that point, but it looks like- in the last moment- he didn't want to hurt anyone anymore. He was just checking out.

@williamnoble86 - he had 5 prior felony convictions and was classed as an habitual offender. He was sentenced to 15 years for two of those felonies. So he was likely on parole and was facing additional prison time.
@@drumingmasterifyHe knew exactly what he was doing. We keep hearing in Australia how blacks are overrepresented in prison. Their families blame their life circumstances and also whites for the situation. It's all BS.
Man I said bad words out loud when the lead cop got spiked. He dealt with all the black exhaust, crazy driving, gun shots, and pulled some amazing pit attempts. On the bright side troopers for doing such a great job you all get new tires. But seriously glad you're all ok, thank you all so much, and sorry to the loved ones of the bad guy.
I was wondering just how big a vehicle you had to be driving to do a pit maneuver on, what was that, a 3500? I felt the same way when he hit the spike strip!
All that excitement can and often time does cost innocent lives. I ask, who should die first, moralistically; the innocent person who died because of a cop who made a mistake and fear for his life? Or should the cop die before an innocent person? I argue, that the officer chose his job and knowingly accepted the dangers of the office, thus, he does not have the excuse of fearing for his life before he took an innocent life. The innocent person on the other hand did not sign up to be involved in police work. It should be natural to say that even ONE single innocent life being taken at the hands of a uniformed gang should be enough to have the whole department they work in, court marshalled, tried, and convicted of murder to the highest degree, and the department gets shut down, indefinitely, and burned to the ground, to send a message to other departments. If police work costs even one innocent life then the promise of policing has been broken and corrupted.

They were not pit attempts - just a nudge in the back. If a vehicle is heavy or has extra traction (dual wheels) and speeds are lower you need to increase the angle of attack (more sideways impact) and force.

Correct me if I'm wrong - but where's the justification when they shot him?
@@trumanhw it was hard to see on the video if he had a firearm in the air or not They unloaded on him for sure
@@trumanhw Did you see how his left hand ONLY was in the air, well the gun was most likely in his right hand behind the driver door. Even if he dropped it police dont take risky chances, it's a put your both hands in the air or die kinda deal. VERY simple even for a criminal in distress, you have only 2 options. From a far enough distance and/or at night If you pull a toy gun, a cell phone, a sharpie heck even a tootbrush and motion like you have a gun towards cops when they are chasing you then they will shoot you and be completely justified doing so. Remember they have to make LIFE AND DEATH split second decisions under pressure. In this case it was night time, they look to be at least 80ft. or more away from the guy, he's already shot at the police, he's been driving like a madman putting countless lives at risk, he's not showing both hands instead he is hiding one hand behind the door. When you total all these circumstances up it makes complete sense why they had to shoot him even though it is really sad and most likely they don't want to have to shoot anyone.

I’ve watched many videos recently on the
Arkansas State Police activity and I’m so impressed with the Bravery, skills, judgement and teamwork to stop insane behavior.
When an Officer has to make split decisions 100+mph and persue discard for Law and Law Inforcement, there is nothing guaranteed.
The outcome being so unpredictable raises the stakes. I totally
respect the policy that
Arkansas has taken.
Not many States have the Balls to enforce the Laws.
God Bless all that defend this Country.
I want to move there. Streets are much safer in Arkansas vs Louisiana. They allow all kinds of things on the roads here.
21 doing a PIT on the SUV at 100+ mph was amazing. Dude was in a Charger and LITERALLY "charged" when the other officer {with a damaged engine from the first PIT attempt} said "21, get up here!" or something.

Classic 🤣🤣🤣
@@Southpawarsenalthat was probably a different cop telling a car to turn around.
that spike hit so many officers
The spike strip is equal opportunity, like a force of nature.
Not much he could have done. At 25:16 the trooper states his pull cable snapped when the truck hit the spikes. And he obviously isn't going to run out into traffic to grab them just to save a few tires. Not much he can do other than chalk it up to "shit happens in real life" and have a chuckle about it later.
@@SG-us4gzOne of the life lesson I heard from watching one of the youtube videos (which is soldiers reaction to Fury) was "Stupid shit is going to happen." So, that applies everywhere, including dangerous jobs.
He did warn them the spikes were there and across the whole road, at that point it's on the officers who chose to spike themselves rather than wait for it to be clear
Big wheels need big spikes
That was the single most effective spike strip I have ever seen.
Edit: It is crazy how many people in the comments section missed the mentioned-numerous-times part where the spike strip cable broke when that big-ass truck drove over it, so there was no way for the Trooper who deployed it to pull it back afterwards like he normally would.
Good point.
You mean like, people paying attention to the obvious, listening, and possibly using their heads? Thats not a thing, c'mon now..
I hear ya. But, during such a deployment, had they backed off a bit more and kept a bit more space between units, they could have allowed for a bit more time for the first couple of units and the deploying officer to communicate to the others what's going on. This would have allowed, after the first unit or two got spiked, for the remaining units to maneuver around the spikes or give a second for the spikes to be removed.
I know this would have caused the suspect to gain some lead, but given the area and empty roads, this seems to be a situation that would have fairly easily allowed for the officers to space out a bit more, or to have a couple lead units on his tail while others hang back some without any of this risking losing much ground on the truck. These guys can catch up on that truck in no time--especially considering that if the spikes work just as they did and he's got flats. Worst case is the spikes don't work so the units get right back up on his ass and try something else.
I know hindsight is 20/20. And I'm not an expert. But, when using maneuvers like spike strip deployment, it is obvious that a number of different outcomes can result, including malfunction, so it is on the officers to plan and prepare as best as possible. They need to maintain chase while also strategically exercising the necessary cautions as best as can be done in the situation. My overall point for this one is that it's a good learning experience, and in the future, more strategic positioning could likely have helped.
@@FirstLast-hs4gw He did announce it and told them to give them space,rewatch it moron.
What WAS missing was the 2nd officer either pulling his spikes back (after the first spikes were successful), or announcing right away that his spikes were in the middle of the road. I didn't hear him announce that until after a couple officers were spiked.
impressive how relaxed and skilled the original lead officer was
@@meridius- we cannot see anything definitive in the video; but we can hear one officer saying to he is still moving and another officer, whose car was 2nd or 3rd to the scene saying "show me your hands". There is nothing in the video that could reasonably suggest that the officer shot that final round just because he was still moving, and as a result I will give the offer the benefit of the doubt here and say he was raising his gun again. I think this was a tragic case of "suicide by cop" ultimately, at first he thought he might get away but when he realized he wasn't going to he shot into the air so that he was killed when it was ended.
Yeah, he was. These cops are use to these stressful situations. It helps them when dealing with high speed chases.
Some people, very few, have that ability to immediately go cold, calm, cool and collected. Very rare.

Do you know how many innocent lives are taken at the hands of police every year? Do you know how few of those cases see any justice? Is there logic to giving cops qualified immunity? I would argue they should have stricter, almost unreasonable punishments, not lesser ones. A truck driver, being a professional driver, is expected to know traffic laws better than an average person and will have stricter punishments for breaking the laws and experience less leniency from the courts.
Why do we not apply this standard to people who are running around in uniforms shooting people? Cops should not have immunity. One single innocent life taken under the color of law should mean public execution for the entire department... And their families... Cause we don't want their spawn coming back and becoming a murderous cop either.

Sad that people with throw their life away for no reason than trying to avoid the consequences of their actions.
really,, where's the escape?? outta the gene pool
I'm pretty sure this guy already made up in his mind that he was going to die. Another prime example of how we in the United States need to place more emphasis on taking care of people's Mental Health so things like this don't have to happen
@@jamesbias1200As someone with mental health issues this is not one. This is simply a bad person who commits crime and can’t handle the consequences of their actions. Soon every criminal will try to get out of punishment by saying “iT wAs My MeNtAl HeAlTh.”
@@infiniteepiphany1010 so you're saying there may be no underlying reason why he drove like a maniac and shot himself in the head I highly doubt that I'm sure something led to it
@@jamesbias1200What? Not the case. This guy had drugs and weapons. Even threw a package out the window. 12:26
I am convinced that without body and car cameras... Arkansas troopers would clothes line a speeding motorcycle driver with a rope across the road...
Nah they'd use barbed wire 😂
and then hit their whole fleet
😂😂😂 I watched them do a motorcycle pit. It was awesome!
That would be cool
I live in Arkansas and you are correct. The state police here is elite and if they were allowed to would probably use bearcats to pit cars
The first pursuing officer is a BEAST! Great driving skills!
I couldn't get over how nice the area was during the entire chase. I'd sit on a porch and watch the stars in a place like that. Living where I do I haven't seen a star in decades.
@jjohnston326
It IS a beautiful state. None quite like it. You should visit sometime. People who visit USA and only ever see the coast have no clue what the heart of the country is like.
This guy had made up his mind his wasn’t going to be taken alive. This chase ended the best way it could have, justified shooting, no officers hurt, evil taken off this world, no huge tax payer trial, no 2500 appeals. Yep! Kudos to Arkansas State Troopers and all involved !
Yes but I feel this person was different ...😞🙏
@@karenhill3970Did the man even shoot? He didn't fire a single shoot.
@@Godschild49 Does not matter , he made poor choices and showed a gun, good riddance!
He was shooting well driving out the window multiple times
VERY NICELY PUT
Looks like the whole department got new tires after this 😅
It was actually a scheme to get new tires for the whole department
I can’t imagine what what he was going through to feel this was necessary. I can’t imagine the stress this brought upon the officers and the family. I hope they all find peace in the end.
The perspective most people dont think about.
This guy was living under the Biden regime. Tired, broke, and enslaved. He had had enough, and the brown shirts ended it for him.
@williamnoble86 - he had 5 prior felony convictions and was classed as an habitual offender. He was sentenced to 15 years for two of those felonies. So he was likely on parole and was facing additional prison time.
@@drumingmasterifyHe knew exactly what he was doing.
We keep hearing in Australia how blacks are overrepresented in prison. Their families blame their life circumstances and also whites for the situation. It's all BS.
They live for this shit.
bro gets like half a mile to the gallon in that disgusting dually who does he think he's outrunning
Man I said bad words out loud when the lead cop got spiked. He dealt with all the black exhaust, crazy driving, gun shots, and pulled some amazing pit attempts. On the bright side troopers for doing such a great job you all get new tires. But seriously glad you're all ok, thank you all so much, and sorry to the loved ones of the bad guy.
I was wondering just how big a vehicle you had to be driving to do a pit maneuver on, what was that, a 3500? I felt the same way when he hit the spike strip!
All that excitement can and often time does cost innocent lives. I ask, who should die first, moralistically; the innocent person who died because of a cop who made a mistake and fear for his life? Or should the cop die before an innocent person?
I argue, that the officer chose his job and knowingly accepted the dangers of the office, thus, he does not have the excuse of fearing for his life before he took an innocent life. The innocent person on the other hand did not sign up to be involved in police work. It should be natural to say that even ONE single innocent life being taken at the hands of a uniformed gang should be enough to have the whole department they work in, court marshalled, tried, and convicted of murder to the highest degree, and the department gets shut down, indefinitely, and burned to the ground, to send a message to other departments.
If police work costs even one innocent life then the promise of policing has been broken and corrupted.
@@rneustel388 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was a 3500

this pursuit is hilarious😂😭.. the fact that he thought that he would be able to get away in THAT type of truck is just outrageous.
Whats hilarious is cop thinking he could pit a dump truck😅
He wasn’t trying to escape.
@@hanktrill1498 nah he's just playing tag with cars they are having fun
@@BC-iz8gtHe almost did though..
He thought he could smoke screen them by rolling that coal!
Makes the heart heavy.....for all involved!
Props to the officer who made valiant PIT attempts!
..by bending the bumber a bit? Would've been more effective with batman&robin type of tire slasher gadget, those outer wheels made the pitting harder but those were also begging to be popped. Sure it was better than unloading two mags of rounds on somebody but still the U.S. police chases are mostly pointless, basically GTA (game).
I thought if he got that bull bumper tangled up with the trailer hitch, he'd be able to turn him.

Yes This channel is a goldmine for roll call trainings.
To be fair, the officer with the spikes clearly stated that they were across the entire roadway and to back off and give the suspect room 😂
Yeah, and he said when the truck ran it over it broke the line for him to pull it back, so he really couldn’t do anything but get ran over trying to retrieve it
He said the truck broke his strap. He couldn't pull it back
That was some impressive driving by the policeman, BRAVE!
The cop following him is brave
I agree - he put his own safety to the side to take that dangerous creap off the steet
That is one impressive emotional support vehicle.
thinking its monthly payment is what killed him
@@tachikaze222 Keeping it fueled is what broke him.
You always wonder what goes to their head and why they do this. Sometimes we'll never know
I know what was going threw his head....a 40 caliber hollow point! Lol 😂
I've been trying to find out WTF he was running for.
All I can find is the same story as the description.
I found his obituary, it said he was a successful mechanic, had his own shop and business.
No telling what his motive was.
What ended up going to his head was a high-velocity round.

That diesel smoke though he probably was trying to use it to blind the cops lol
Called "rolling coal" when they throw extra fuel with low rpms. They tamper with emissions controls. I hate it. It stinks!
Fella was a redneck who thought his diesel powered pickup was hot shit.
Hopefully the truck was auctioned off to a better owner to put the truck to actual work.
@Train_Tok_Man i mean they can be real nasty to the point the cops wouldnt have caught em but you also have to have big boy bills to do that shit cause ik his turbo in this video is glowing cherry red rn not giving a shit about his egts
Yeah is that like a 'feature' of that truck.? 😂😂
Just looked up Michael "Scotty" Helton's obituary from the funeral home. It was very nice; loved his family and he loved working in his garage and he loved his dogs. No mention that he tried to kill numerous police officers and had a complete disregard for the lives of anybody who might have been in front of him on this night.
He "raced" into heaven? Interesting words by the family...
@@angelamccarthy4731 No, he raced on the Highway to Hell.
The criminals are ALL "Good Bois".. 🙄
Yeah, they try to avoid the homicidal parts of you life…
“He tried to kill numerous police officers” well that part makes him a bit of a hero
Damn... That poor cop that spiked everyone. If you listen to the end of the video, he said the suspect hitting his spike strips broke the cable so he couldn't do anything about spiking everyone.
Spike Made in USA.🤣🤣🤣
Thats a $100,000 truck. That truck can't fix a stoopid driver. His buds call him Shorty.
Arkansas police always seem to have the craziest chases. lol
I thought it was Los Angeles
Ya they don’t back down. Pretty bad ass dudes

Cause people are drunk and bored to shit out there. You can only drink so much beer and bang your sister so many times before the insanity takes you and the voices start saying "you can totally drive after eighteen beers".
COD?
first vehicle I've ever seen where I instantly knew a pit would be impossible. Props to ASP for some really good attempts. You'd need a bearcat to take that thing out especially with the spacers in the back
ya six wheelers dont tip over easily
never saw the killdozer or stolen m60 patton chase before? how tf you gonna pit those vehicles weighting at least 30 tonnes plus being tracked
A hard enough pit would have done the job.
They were not pit attempts - just a nudge in the back. If a vehicle is heavy or has extra traction (dual wheels) and speeds are lower you need to increase the angle of attack (more sideways impact) and force.
@@robertvanruyssevelt7159 that truck weighed twice as much as those patrol SUVS… they had no chance with his wheelbase.
Ah he's one of those people with the black smoke. Yea they're all complete and total jerks.
Dudey, my welding rig was diesel bc that's all I had. Not one day did I ever drive recklessly. I was just as courteous to everyone as you are.
@@jeremyhansen8186 Diesel engines don't dump black smoke unless you tamper with the emissions controls and tuning. A stock truck won't roll coal no matter how you drive it.
