Default Remarkable I-95 Crash Survivor Video

Wow, someone was watching over that guy! I can't believe that everything
around him was gone and he's sitting there in one piece. Truly unbelievable.


Yeah, that video is remarkable. The guy looks like he's sitting on
the seat out of our airplane after I've removed it for the annual
inspection.

But instead of being in my A&P's hangar, he's sitting -- conscious --
in the median strip of I-95, with nothing -- NOTHING! -- left of his
airplane.

He's got a broken arm, a broken leg, and some cuts. That's it?
Friggin' amazing...

Ever see the video of the teen that slid sideways into the back of a
semi truck at 120mph on the freeway while running from the cops? The
corvette he was in spun off the road and shredded, dumping him on his
butt by the side of the road, and the rotation of the car flung him
back so that he was practically stopped when he landed on the ground.
He was hurt, but survived it. This accident reminded me of that video.
