Saw that the other day. Great big pile of stupid. The video I saw was actually from the other side of the truck, and from about 10 seconds in you could clearly hear something was wrong. The driver heard it too, because he backed off...then got right back on it.
Then there's the fact that he had a passenger, which is a major no-no from a safety perspective for exactly this reason.

A stock post-2007(and even moreso a post-2011) diesel pollutes FAR FAR less than this.

Looks like I was mistaken, this one is a 6.7 cummins, so it's a 2007.5 to 2009 truck, but it's been heavily modified with deleted emissions equipment, a triple turbo kit, and a crazy fuel system among other things. They had previously put down 2700 HP and got to 2920 at this dyno day. They were dialing it in to try for 3k when it blew. I can't imagine the pressure it takes to blow up a cummins engine like that.
