US Politics | Harrowing moment lorry surfer, 25, on top of 18-wheeler fatally slams into an overpass while dancing on trailer
THIS is the horror moment a lorry surfer slammed into an overpass while dancing on top of an 18-wheeler. The 25-year-old man, who hasn't been identified, died after he was knocked off the truck onto a busy motorway in Houston, Texas. 
The man was seen dancing on top the lorry moments before he was knocked off 
Footage captured the moment the man dodged the first overpass Moments before he smashed into the bridge, footage captured the moment he ducked and managed to squeeze through a tiny gap between the lorry and the overpass. The shocking video showed the daring man standing up again and gyrating his hips and swinging his arms in an apparent celebration of his success. But the man didn't see the next bridge coming just seconds later on the Eastex Freeway and appeared to be mid-step when he smacked into it. To the horror of passing motorists, he plunged onto the packed motorway into the path of oncoming traffic. Read more world news
