Shocking Footage Shows Moment ‘Flying Truck’ Crashes Into House

A doorbell camera captured the moment a pickup truck soared through the air and crashed into a house in Oregon, causing major damage. The speeding vehicle was caught on camera hurtling toward the ground floor of the family home just before 3 a.m. on February 13. The driver of the truck, identified as Jacob Hankins, 33, was charged with reckless driving and recklessly endangering. “Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt,” the Tigard Police Department said in a statement. A family of five—a couple and their three young children—was left unscathed in the incident. “I didn’t expect a flying truck,” David Brudnok told NBC affiliate KGW. “I just heard this, ‘Boom!’ And the house shakes… I get down the stairs, and I realize the whole front of my house is completely just gone.” Officers believe Hankins hit a dirt mound on the side of the road and launched roughly 100 feet into the air and over a 3-foot brick wall before crashing into the side of the house. The driver was found initially unconscious, and he and a passenger were later hospitalized with minor injuries.
