I read somewhere that he was fine and very lucky

dropped that in a gif editor - the cyclist goes between the car and the front bumper that was ripped off
doesn't even look touched at that point. clips the trailing edge of the truck.....wow. lucky.

Well if the truck just clipped the top of his head when he ducked, it might have saved him

Lucky for sure, being on the correct side of the road would have helped a bit too

You guys realize this video was likely from somewhere in Europe? They don't wear helmets and may drive on the opposite side of the road. Don't make assumptions. Lucky dude indeed.

No assumptions on my part, look at the cars.

Yeah and if they are from Europe and don't wear helmets that doesn't exonerate them from being idiots for doing so.

the truck is a Foton, and i'm not sure what the alphabet on the side of the truck is....
don't think it is Cyrillic - @olegbabich ???

driving on the "right" side of the road. truck ran a stop sign.....

Yeah, believe it was Holland (though not positive). And don't think helmet would have helped except maybe making an open-casket funeral viable.
