A beverage vehicle operator lost control of his vehicle on a runway at Chicago O'Hare airport.
The out of control vehicle was captured on video seemingly doing donuts within dangerous proximity to runway operators and a small commercial jet.
The video, though unsettling, is admittedly fun to watch.
Take a look:
Crazy event at ORD. Heads up safety move by a ramp worker! https://t.co/SQi5zB0Ooz— Kevin Klauer DO, EJD (@Kevin Klauer DO, EJD) 1569878376.0
The cart spins and spins, getting a wider circumference each time, until a runway operator shows up with a forklift and tips it over, spilling all the beverages inside.

@Emergidoc Why haven’t I seen this mashed up with Taylor Swift’s “Getaway Car” yet?— Chasten Glezman Buttigieg (@Chasten Glezman Buttigieg) 1569937767.0
In the video, anticipation builds as the cart moves closer and closer to the plane.

Best part is hands down the extra punishment plow after it's knocked over https://t.co/RZR3GcjfnI— Connor Spielmaker (@Connor Spielmaker) 1569887387.0
Since we cannot see the identity of the savior who plowed the forklift into the cart to stop it from going hogwild, the internet is speculating on who they are.

@Emergidoc That looks like a woman to me. A badass at that. https://t.co/BcYpKWs4Rl— Serenity Now! (@Serenity Now!) 1569888663.0

The video is drawing some attention as a solid metaphor for this past week in Washington.
Hopefully someone will show up with a forklift to put an end to that madness.
