Mother nature can never be underestimated, especially when it comes to its strength and making even the biggest things seem small.
A video of a Simba truck being blown over by strong winds in the Western Cape has gone viral.

According to the Western Cape Department of Transport and Public Works, the truck was blown over on the R43, close to Villiersdorp.
In the video, it shows that one of the doors of the truck was open when the wind struck the truck down.
The wind came on so strong and quickly that the truck didn't have a chance. Luckily the driver wasn't inside the truck.
If you thought the wind was a part of nature to be underestimated, think again...

Why did that idiotic driver leave the door open. Yes the wind is strong but having that door opened made the wind impact inside the cab worse 🙄🙄🙄
