This'll make your buttocks clench so tightly your backside will start gumming at the seat.

It is, as far as we can tell, an Isuzu Trooper merrily overtaking some cars in what looks like an orderly and responsible fashion.

Then, without warning, its right-hand rear wheel comes off. As in completely off. Like, totally detches itself from the car. There is spinning. There is a large, runaway bouncy thing. And there is a very good chance the driver's seat changed colour.

Now watch.
