A recent trip to a car wash turned into a chaotic scene for a rancher who underestimated the potential hazards of debris in his truck. Kyle Corbett’s routine wash quickly escalated into a dramatic experience when the high tensile wire he had purchased for fencing wrapped around the car wash’s spinning brushes.
Unexpected Trouble at the Car Wash
Corbett took to TikTok to share the wild aftermath, captioning his video with a valuable lesson learned: never take a car wash detour with loose wire in your truck bed. Just the night before, Corbett had bought a hefty reel of fencing wire to expand his cattle enclosure, and the next day he decided to run a few errands. Expecting a quick wash, he didn’t consider the wire tangled in the back.
“I rarely use that truck for anything heavy-duty,” he explained. “I went through the wash, and after a safety check, that’s when things started to go downhill.” In a matter of seconds, the car wash brushes snagged the fencing, causing a cacophony of chaos. Corbett described the scene as resembling a war zone, with wire whipping around and causing havoc.
Lessons Learned
“It wrapped up half of the wire and damaged the car behind me. It was crazy!” he recalled, highlighting the extent of the tangled mess and the confusion that ensued. As Corbett filmed the destruction, he reflected on the severity of the incident with disbelief, adding, “This is not good… yeah that’s terrible.” It’s a stark reminder for all—especially those in the Golden State who might try to multitask their errands while on the road.
