Imagine yourself driving down a road when suddenly, a semi-truck takes a sharp turn and starts barreling toward you. Well, for one Russian man, this scenario was a reality.

According to carbuzz.com, this crash, which has now gone viral thanks to being featured on the Today Show Thursday morning, took place in Russia.

Caught on an SUV's dash cam, the top-heavy semi takes too sharp a turn and starts heading right at the SUV's driver.

The author of the video, shot from his dash-cam, says that both drivers were ok after the crash, according to carbuzz.com

You can hear the SUV driver slightly squealing at the sight of the truck.
