Some pretty good driving reactions here in the face of tonnes of oncoming death.

The relevant bit is at 1.20... It is a repost, however a very scary video! I would say blind luck rather than judgement...

[Laurel Green]

I actually body-swerved to the left whilst watching that. Good reactions and, lucky nothing had been following the truck close behind - was the driver OK?

[Streps]

Fast reactions there!

One of the suggestions is "How to insert a tampon"

The rest of the video is really boring.

I'd say he'd have gotton away with that. He might have been hurt falling off but he'd make a full recovery IMO. The truck only clipped him.
