That is just crazy. They're beyond lucky to be alive. That truck is likely an 8,000 lb+ truck, and for safety chains to survive the wreck, and still maintain the integrity to suspend the whole truck like that... amazing...
 
That is absolutely insane honestly.
 
I saw that on the news and was like, I’d be sending a pizza party to the manufacturer of that trailer!!!

@ChrisM Ha!! I had a good laugh at the fact that the news headline was that the couple is “now homeless”. Yeah, that’s the main takeaway... How about “Not dead couple...”
