Some of these are classic pics! Thanks for posting them.

I lived in S. America for a couple years. Unbelievable what they will put on a truck/car/motorcycle/bicycle. Don't have any pictures, unfortunately, but they are very creative at loading, and pay no regard to payload ratings!

If that first pic is photo shopped they are pretty good. The right rear tire of the red truck is in the shadow.

I believe that the red vehicle is in the back of that truck. I also believe that has been enlarged/enhanced in order to increase the effect. Proportionally speaking, its WAY off from the truck and the other nearby vehicles.

Still funny though ๐Ÿ˜‰

My guess is forklift


If they could afford one. More likely a lot of manhandling

Probably dragged them on a ramp onto the bed, then turned them on their side

The rest are hilarious.

no, not photoshopped, but saw stuff like that in places like Bangadesh. Most of the other overloaded shots would get you roughly 5ft here, before the Police would fine you into the ground

I also like the Police car in the one picture, think it was an overload citation???:S


Probably just a citation for not having a red flag on the end of the load.
