It turns out that a Boeing 777 blast is an extremely powerful force, but can it knock over a semi-truck?.
As a matter of fact, the force generated from the jet is so powerful that it can, in fact, knock over a truck.
It sounds almost hard to believe, right? But it is absolutely,100 percent true.
And the video above shows this Boeing 777 blast knocking over a semi-truck in the Mojave Desert.

Axicle team produces impressive innovation for the semi-truck
If you’re ever caught behind a Boeing 777 blast, it’s probably a good idea to get well out of the way.
It’s a force of nature that the guys over at Axicle recently experienced first-hand.
In their latest YouTube video, the team has devised a very interesting test.
Can their new technology stop a tractor unit from being knocked over by a jet blast?
The technology that has been innovated by the team at Axicle is actually quite fascinating.

They have added a fifth wheel to the tractor unit of the truck itself.
It’s hoped that this additional level of support will prevent semi-trucks from rolling.
So, they decided to put it through the mother of all strength tests.
Can the semi-truck survive an immediate, direct blast from the engines of a jet airplane?
Can a truck survive a direct Boeing 777 blast?
In the test itself, which you can see above, the Axicle team fit the fifth wheel into the tractor unit.
The semi-truck is then parked at an angle while a Boeing 777 is summoned.
After being towed onto the runway, the Boeing 777 starts firing up.

And the Boeing 777 blast that is experienced is absolutely unreal.
Immediately, the semi-truck starts shaking and rocking with the force of the blast.
We won’t spoil the rest of the video for you, but trust us – it’s worth checking out.
