KCBD photographer Caleb Holder was filming a two-car crash on Highway 84 in Lubbock County, Texas, when an 18-wheel truck lost control and slammed into the scene.
Holder's video shows a number of people at the scene diving out of the way as the semi truck appears traveling at high speed out of heavy fog.
The truck hits two vehicles before jackknifing and landing on a pickup before sliding and finally coming to a halt.
A Texas state trooper in a fluorescent jacket can be seen tripping as he moves to evade the truck — he and another driver pinned inside the pickup were taken to hospital for treatment and are expected to survive, KCBD said.
"We could hear more tires screeching, and then just barely see headlights coming in through the fog," Holder reported on KCBD, adding: "I've never seen anything like that in person."
Watch the dramatic footage below.
