It looks like there was a fire before the truck drove through.
He lived out a trucker fantasy made real and went up in a blaze of glory which he must not of been too averse of the possibility of a fiery death if he voluntarily chose to do this bizarre unnecessary yet awesome stunt. There are no timid weenies in Valhalla. Why should we feel sorry for this ballsy dude? We could only be so lucky.
