Amir Tyson shares a video of a horrific accident

Iron Mike’s son shared the video of the accident on his Instagram story. The video is POV recorded from the bike camera where the rider is stopped at a red light. However, a car from the opposite end would crash into an SUV truck with debris flying over the bike rider. The car was quick enough to destroy the backside of the SUV truck and tilt it upside down. Moreover, the accident was most probably caused by the car running the red light and crashing into the truck.
