You may or may not have seen this before, was sent to me this morning. Amazing crash.
 Look at the picture above and you can see where this driver broke through the guardrail, on the right side of the culvert, where the people are standing on the road, pointing. The pick-up was traveling about 75 mph from right to left when it crashed through the guardrail. It flipped end-over-end, bounced off and across the culvert outlet and landed right side up on the left side of the culvert, facing the opposite direction from which the driver was traveling. The 22-year-old driver and his 18-year-old passenger were unhurt except for minor cuts and bruises. Just outside Flagstaff , AZ on U.S. Hwy 100. Now look at the second picture!  If this guy didn't believe in GOD before, do you suppose he believes now?

The second pic looks photoshopped to 'enhance' the depth of the pit. (Look at how skinny the ambo and firetruck are).
I can make to deeper too...  Still awesome nonetheless. |

Its definitely been squeezed horizontally (the photo), but boy, un-believable still. What are the chances of that? I hope he's learned his lesson. I bet it was hard for him and his girlfriend to step into another vehicle again for a long while.

Theres a similar one with a F250 or similar hanging over a cliff held up by the large boat he was towing.
