Well, here's something you don't see every day.
A house fell and landed lengthwise, blocking busy highway traffic in Charlotte, North Carolina.
According to Newsweek, a spokesperson for the North Carolina Department of Public Transportation said that the agency's:
"Incident Management Assistance Program (IMAP) team was dispatched to I-485 Inner near Moores Chapel Road (Exit 12) about 10:35 a.m. after learning of a crash involving a tractor trailing hauling a mobile home."
The home wreck was the result of the tractor-trailer carrying the mobile home colliding with another vehicle, causing the massive cargo to fall off.
Local news reporter Joe Bruno of WSOC-TV reported about the incident and shared a photo.
He tweeted:
"On scene of the I-485 wreck."
"Cars are slowing passing the house on the shoulder. All minor injuries."
\u201cOn scene of the I-485 wreck. Cars are slowing passing the house on the shoulder. All minor injuries @wsoctv\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
Bruno added follow-up tweets with more information.
\u201cIt looks like that house was traveling in the outer lanes and then cut into inner lane traffic.\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
\u201cIt\u2019s possible another truck crossed over from outer into inner. But the way the house is positioned makes it look like it was whatever was carrying the house\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
Hunter Saenz of WSOC-TV also posted photos from a different vantage point and tweeted:
"Chopper 9 is over a crash involving a mobile home that was on the back of a tractor trailer. We can see 2 cars that the mobile home appears to have fallen on."
"Another has bad damage to the front of its car. On 485 inner loop at Moore's Chapel Rd."

Social media users couldn't resist cracking dad jokes.
Who knew that a 1982 song by British ska and pop band Madness would find literal relevance in the future?

Twitter was just getting started.

The obligatory references to the Wizard of Oz were made.
\u201c@JoeBrunoWSOC9 @wsoctv It was necessary\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
\u201cDorothy is out of control.\u201d— \ud83d\udc08\u200d\u2b1bHellcat Press\ud83d\udc08\u200d\u2b1b (@\ud83d\udc08\u200d\u2b1bHellcat Press\ud83d\udc08\u200d\u2b1b) 1685107221
To be fair, it's a legitimate concern.
\u201c@JoeBrunoWSOC9 @wsoctv Is that covered by home insurance or auto?\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
\u201c@JoeBrunoWSOC9 @wsoctv Well, they say most accidents happen within 25 miles of home so\u2026\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
The spokesperson added that officials with the North Carolina Department of Transportation anticipated the interstate to reopen later in the afternoon.
\u201cIn case you\u2019re wondering how they are going to do this, they are loading the house on a flat bed\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
\u201cIt probably won\u2019t be too much longer now. They got about half the house on the flat bed and pushed the remains of it to the side of the road. @wsoctv\u201d— Joe Bruno (@Joe Bruno) 1685028379
Now, that's life in the fast lane!
