I saw an accident similar to this once. It was one of the most horrible things I have ever witnessed. It was a convertible and it hit a ditch and launched into the air and slammed into a tree about 10 feet in the air. It broke the car in half. I didn't even know it was possible for cars to "launch" like that.

There were no survivors.

I wonder how fast he was going. It must have been very fast.

Looks like a Rusty Wallace at Daytona 500 stunt less about 20 flips, of course. Nascar inside joke (yeah I'm a redneck) yee haw.
