this week, recalling how he was riding his bike home from GameStop with a new Xbox Series S in his backpack. He was hit by a truck and ultimately pulled under it as the driver kept going. “The Xbox in my backpack prevented me from hitting my head or worse, even dying. I wasn’t gonna get shredded beneath the truck so I used my left leg to attempt to slow the truck,” Brandon wrote.

“At this point my bike wedged my right leg so I couldn’t move it anywhere. Next thing I know my backpack was only hanging on by my left shoulder and was slammed into the curb along with me afterwards.”

After this, Brandon said he felt the full weight of the front end of the truck begin to roll onto his ribs, going on to say he was dragged for about 12 feet. He was taken to the hospital and miraculously only had a single broken bone in his left foot, in addition to some road rash. Not only was Brandon mostly OK from the experience, but his Xbox didn’t break either. He said it booted up normally and runs games despite the toll it took and the damage it sustained.

“If the Xbox wasn’t in my bag at the time a lot more could have happened…” he wrote. Brandon also shared a number of images to demonstrate the damage.
