Chaotic video captures the moment a runaway porta-potty slams into a referee and nearly flattens him after it was caught up in powerful storms sweeping much of the central and northeastern United States.
The airborne porta-potty crashed into the referee during a football game at Penn State Tuesday after huge gusts carried it across the field, the short but terrifying clip shows.
As the person shooting the video laughs and screams while they run across the field, the large blue porta-potty collides with the ref, wearing a striped black and white jersey and carrying flags.
The condition of the referee isn’t known, and Penn State did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Three people were killed in Pennsylvania on Tuesday as a storm system that brought severe weather to the central US on Sunday and Monday traveled eastward, causing significant damage and leaving hundreds of thousands without power.
One man was killed when he was electrocuted by live wires in Pittsburgh, according to the city’s public safety department.
A second person died in Allegheny County, although emergency services haven’t yet released details.
And a 22-year-old man was electrocuted while trying to put out a fire in State College close to Penn State, local police said.
