Ford escort,
That was my guess too, looking at the tail end and the wheels, probably an RS....

No, they can probably rebuild it, it's only a little front end damage and some scratched paint [/sarcasm]

The only way I could imagine surviving that is getting ejected from the vehicle, then having the luck not to hit anything too solid while you dissipate 125 mph worth of inertia with your body.
Anybody know how well he survived, does he have 4 stubs now? perhaps just a head attached to a bunch of wires and hoses?

That man is very lucky to survive. My friend has a Ford Escort also.

as you can see, the front end of the car is not present in any of those pictures. the front end of the car, along with the bottom half of the cabin (dashboard, floor and seats) are sitting about 100 feet past the tree. apparentley, the car was sheared off inches from the back of the driver, and while the back end obviousley stopped dead, he didn't. the front half of the car with him in it kept going and stopped in the field. he merely had to stand up out of his seat, as the roof was gone. i'm not sure how bad his injuries were, if any, but he survived. incredible.

Idiots. Obviously fake. You reckon ANY tree, let alone one that flimsy is gonna stay where it is when 1.3 tonnes of steel hits it at 125mph? :loser:

ha, I read through this whole thread and nobody noticed that and I was just about to post saying it's fake when I saw your post. So true, I could level that tree at 60 mph, double that speed and you'll rip the roots out of the ground of a tree that size.....

but how in the sweet hell could they have done that, assuming it's a fake? can't be photoshopped...unless the guy who did it is a f0cking genius.

I don't think it fake i think the speed (125mph)might be a lie though.
