Timewaster of the Day – supersized drifting video

So, you’re not impressed by the “sport” of drifting, and think that anyone can get crossed-up in a a BMW 3-series, GTO, or AE86 Corolla. Fair enough, but how about a MAN cab-over-engine semi tractor? I don’t know any of the backstory to this three-minute video, but that matters little – it’s still an impressive driving performance, and one of the most entertaining clips I’ve seen in a long time. I particularly like the shot about about 0:52.
