Thats 1 hell-of-a hit.

Would be cool to work on the crash testing of cars - play with slo-mo cameras.

Hmmm.... Just looking at it, a driver and passenger wouldn't be all that healthy but the cabin did remain remarkably in tact.

the cabin is in decent condition still which is encouraging. Although the force of impact would do wonders to you insides regaurdless of how well the cabin holds its shape

Didnt come off to bad really. The cabin is in great condition and the driver is well protected. BUT at that impact I doubt many people would be surviving or in good shape. But atleast they wont be mangled and trapped. Though this is only on a dead straight impact, how many people hit a wall head on?
