There are some stories that make you cringe when you read them.
But this one is as bad as it gets.
And a truck driver just went through a real-life horror film that no one would ever want to endure.
We all have nightmares
Everyone has something that keeps them up at night.
Every person has something that they’re afraid of that they never want to face.
For some, it can be a fear of spiders through arachnophobia.
Just the thought of being around a spider can make some folks want to crawl out of their skin.
For others, that fear is serious financial hardship.
They never want to put their family through a situation where they don’t have the funds to sustain their way of life.
And some even lose sleep over the growing national debt and what that means for the future of the United States.
A national debt of nearly $30 trillion should put anyone with more than two brain cells on edge.
Thankfully, most of us never have to face our nightmares in real life.
But one truck driver in California just went through a living nightmare that you won’t believe.
A nightmare no one wants to live through
Earlier this month, one truck driver was going through Bakersfield, California, when he just dropped off the face of the earth.
He went missing without any signs of where he went or what happened.
But then officials found him nearly a week later.
In a shocking discovery, a truck was found at the bottom of a ravine in Bakersfield by a driver going through the area.
When the fire department responded to the call, they assumed it was just an abandoned vehicle.
But when they got to the bottom of the ravine, they found the missing driver trapped in his pick-up truck.
Somehow the man had managed to survive his truck crashing down a 100 foot cliff, being badly injured and being trapped in his vehicle for five days.
Local sources posted a video of the heroic rescue of the driver.
Could you imagine being in this driver’s shoes?

He was trapped for five days without food or water.
The thoughts that were running through his head are unimaginable for most people.
Thankfully, a motorist was able to spot his crushed truck and first responders were able to get to him.
But the next time you go around that sharp turn on the road, pray that you don’t end up like this driver who lived through a nightmare.
