    First time watching a Road Guy Rob video. The video was informative without being boring and the presentation of information was almost whimsical yet thorough. Hope you enjoy.

    The first time I went through there after the wreck and fire, there were several vehicles they pulled out of the tunnel that were burned down to the frame. What a nightmare that would be to be involved in that or witness.

    A horrifying thing I realized watching this video was that since temperatures inside the tunnel reached 1500°, it's safe to assume that there are unrecognizable charred human remains among the black debris that had to be removed from the tunnel.

    When I past through that area post fire there were still some vehicles in the west tunnel they had yet to pull out,including the remnants of a semi that had burned down to the frame.
    The fire had basically turned the tunnel into a crematorium!
