wallfish 16,043 #1 Posted December 24, 2018 Just happened to see this on the net. 10 MPH slower and he might've made it even more spectacular by sticking the landing. Watch the brake lights. https://www.autoblog.com/2018/12/24/video-bmw-flies-through-air-hits-tunnel/?ncid=edlinkusauto00000021&yptr=yahoo 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 52,273 #3 Posted December 24, 2018 Saw that one on the evening news the other day. Distracted driving and excessive speed for sure. Driver didn't even know he was in trouble until lift off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,142 #9 Posted December 25, 2018 big difference with the Diana spencer crash , was instant stop of motion, 80 mph to instant violent stop is final. the other crashes , while vary scary , the " softening of impact " is what makes the difference, each phase arrests more speed. in the seconds this is going on , your life will change, hopefully for the better , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
