A rogue bale of hay was no match for a Missouri State Highway Patrol trooper, whose dash cam video shows him singlehandledly shoving the giant bale off the road.
MSHP Troop F posted the video to X on Wednesday, with the caption, "Anyone missing their round bale??? Trooper Isaiah 'Doesn't Miss Leg Day' Lemasters was able to move this traffic hazard off the roadway for you. All in a days work!!!"
Lemasters' Samson-esque moment took place on Route A in Callaway County.
Round bales of hay that size can weigh upwards of 1,000 pounds.
Lemasters is a homeschool grad from Auxvasse, Mo. and was assigned to MSHP Zone 9 (Montgomery County) after graduating from the Patrol's 114th Recruit Class in 2022. During his training, Lemasters received the Physical Fitness Award... though he may not have guessed he'd be putting that fitness to use quite this way, a couple of years later.
