It's not how you'd want to go, but it happens
A BIKER has died in America after being hit by a mattress that fell from a pickup truck.
73-year-old John Saddler of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, was riding his motorcycle near Prairiesburg on Saturday afternoon when he was struck by a mattress that blew out of the bed of a pickup driven by Roger Ockensfels. Saddler, who was wearing a helmet, was knocked off his motorcycle and onto the shoulder of the road. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

One thought: 'Heli-Beds'.
They offer free delivery and that mattress would have been securely fastened to the back of their lorry.(a man told me).
Sorry to hear about Mr. Saddler.
