If you turn up the sound you guy's will learn some dirty words in norwegian..:)

Driver in the Lithauan truck got broken ribs, hands and some other injurys.
He was found outside the truck, wasn't using his belt....
Still in the hospital.:(

The driver of the stuck truck with only one chain on was bad enough, but the tow truck driver should have known enough to put chains on the towedd unit before trying to flat tow him down the mountain.
