Re: How not to put air in a truck tire.
His first mistake was casually resting his foot on the tire and I think his buddy was telling him to get it off ... about 5 seconds too late. From the absence of the ring I think he was trying to get the tube and tire to separate from the rim ... a stupid way to do it. He is fortunate he was not inflating it while the ring was on it and slipped off. He would be missing a leg.
Who says building a border wall won't work?!? The Chinese built one over 2000 years ago and they STILL don't have any Mexicans ...

Argh ... that is going to leave a mark
He might have been ok with the "backflip" but the entire wheel/tire assembly across his back at the end ...
OUCH!

That's why they make safety cages to do this work

Ric,
Cool link.
Did you see the one with the Camero ?
That would suck if it happened on a Boss with a car tire !

Re: How not to put air in a truck tire.
When I worked in a tire/exhaust/shock joint we were trainednever to work on any truck tire without the cage. That was from a guy who had a claw for a right hand. Lost his hand to exactly the same lazy tire inflation - the ring took it right off as it blew upwards and then went right through the garage roof! Seeing his claw as he described it sent shivers thru me. And I never took risks with compressed air since.
