as soon as I saw the yellow dump truck I knew it had to be RC.. .Those Germans or Austrians or w/e really like their RC cars and trucks. Yet another hobby I would love to get in on

After about a minute in I figured it was a model when I saw the wheels steering with WAY too much ease. Either way it did look (And sound) pretty realistic.

I'd love to get Mercedes models like these

It looked a little fake for me at the beginning.

Should have lowered the camera down to what would be a person's angle and mess up the quality of that video a bit more. I would have been fooled. The wheels turned too quickly for human hands too by the way

You could tell it was a model.

I had that happen to a cement truck once, they can be pretty dangerious when they start to slide because they are 6wd they just go sideways. We had to push it out with the excavator.
