Anybody lose a tire in Texas....

.....if so, you may not want to claim it. This is one lucky guy, compared to how it could have turned out.

Or failed to pack. I knew someone who hadn't packed their bearings ever. When he finally threw a bearing it shredded the spindle, but the wheel was intact, with the drum attached, similar to one in the video. In his case though it didn't come off until he was on the side of the highway and no, it wasn't in Texas.
