Strange things happen on Russian roads when one least expects them. This is why leaving the dash cam always open and recording is a must for those in search of YouTube fame. The driver in the following video surely knew this and thanks to this, we have the opportunity to witness a surreal scene.

As the driver slowed down and stopped at a pedestrian crossing, an old man started to cross the street. When he reached the middle of the street, the man naturally looked right to see if any car was coming. Unfortunately for him, a vehicle was coming, but from the left…

It was too late to do anything for both the reckless driver of the small truck and the old man, who was wacked in the head by the right door mirror. However, while the mirror was ripped apart from the truck and smashed into pieces, the man remained standing and only lost his… hat.
