English term or phrase: flat bed
This is take from a dialogue from a film.

"He was killed on a flat bed". Fiz alguma pesquisa e todos os flatbeds que aparecem não fazem muito sentido aqui. Eventualmente pensei que poderia ser a flat sand bed. Mas a frase é somente - flat bed.
Agradeço todas as sugestões. Obrigada e bom fds.

Explanation:
Se o assunto é de cinema mesmo, "flat bed" é o nome que se dá a mesas de edição planas, por oposição à antiga "Moviola" onde os rolos ficavam em posição vertical. Talvez com mais contexto fosse possivel saber se é esse o caso.

agree  Fiona Stephenson: or "caminhão plataforma". Isn't it more likely he was killed "under" or "in" (i.e. driving) the truck than on it.

  -> Thanks, Fiona. I think it's also possible.
