Holy crap... and I though my brothers accident was bad (him and his friend walked out with nothing but bruises).

His friend was driving when the accident happened. Police recreated the accident, and this is what happened - the driver fell asleep, entered the ditch at approximately 100mph, went 300 feet inside the ditch, hit a post that sent the car airborne (rear of the car going up). The car slammed into a tree the trunk (the mark on the tree is over 6ft high), and went flipping on the ground six more times for about 1000 feet all together from the spot where they entered the ditch.

These are some amazingly safe cars.
