I once did that in a loaded Transit van, the back end swung around
leaving me facing in the opposite direction, and if the back doors had
been open, the contents would have been spread in an 180 degree arc, but
that is not the point. If a truck was reversing at 70mph, and slammed on
the brakes, the load could then shoot off the back as Mr Deo suggested,
so I see no need for him needing extra remedial physics lessons, but
more worthy of a gold star ;-)
