"Swamp People" Tommy Chauvin and his stepfather Joe LaFont are lucky to be alive after they were involved in an explosive 5-car pile-up yesterday near Texarcana!

Apparently, Tommy and Joe along with 3 other vehicles were stoppped at some construction waiting to pass and continue. A 5th vehicle, a tractor-trailer, came traveling along and smashed into the back of another truck waiting in line.

Somehow, no one was hurt, but a bunch of "Swamp People" merch that spilled out of Tommy and Joe's truck ... and scattered across the highway.
