Man, I'm glad you survived and from what you've said you've learnt something too. You were very very lucky.

A friend of a guy at my work died last night in a car accident, so you're right to be thankful.

Hope this can serve as a reminder to others of the hazards out there. No matter how good a driver we are or how good a car we're in remember we're (nor other road users) are not immortal.

Take care guys & girls, especially in bad weather conditions...

Wish you a speedy recovery.

So were you ejected or did a rescue team have to get you out? Still don't understand.

Dude, you really don't have to do this, but get well soon.

Okay, that's pure nuts. Unfreaking believable.

I was wondering the same. I think he meant that they got him out of the area of the accident scene, rather than out from inside of the car.

Glad you are doing as well as you are. I hope we all learned something form this.

You are a very very very lucky man. While you are out of pocket a bunch of money and there is no doubt that your insurance will be at an all time high, these things can be replaced. Your life and your health is not and you cheated the devil. Good luck, happy mending and hopefully you learned a good lesson, life should be very grand for you.

Makes one think do we all need so much performance and horsepower, it is nice to have but oh so tempting to drive at the limit because at the end of the day do we need 300+hp for a small car when 189 is plenty

I was ejected from the car, the seat belt came off of me some how at the exact time needed for me to survive. I landed IIRC next to the back right bumper.



Thanks again for the kind words, it is much appreciated.

Below is the result of what my car looks like now. I had a seat belt on, but thank god it snapped at just the right time. I ended up ejected from the car, passed out for 20 minutes. I shattered my left leg bone right above the ankle, collapsed a lung, broke my sternum and got bruised and cut all over. My face only has a little scratch left on it. Right now I have a external metal brace drilled into my leg and I have a 4th leg surgery this Thursday. Other then that I am pretty much fully healed up minus some aches and pains... Anyways, I just wanted to share what happened since I still can't believe I am alive, let alone with pretty much only busted leg. I did not believe in God before, but now I do. This is not a joke, for any one thinking I found these pics or something.... People at the hospital call me the miracle child, the junk yard put a pic of this on the wall because it's the worst accident they have ever seen. BTW, the car lit on fire shortly after rescue got me out... Life goes on God bless!

WOW! Unreal!!! Thank God you're alive! Unbeliveable and I've never seen anything like that!:eek: Wow! Get into the ministry dude!

My bad Kev... I interpreted it as if you were implying the OP was full of ****. I thought that you meant that you switch to your snows, when it snows. After reading it again, I realize I jumped the gun.

AndySays 01-27-2007 01:26 AM

thank god that you survived
i wish you the best and a speedy recovery

Not a problem. All is well, no hard feelings, ok? :)

It's a fukin' miracle that the OP lived. I've seen cars that are more intact with the occupants dead or missing some body parts

...or you could always use a Taxi, Bus or designated driver instead! In fact that is a safer bet for all of us!
Glad your OK!

PS. Funny that the dashboard still indicates your doing 4,000rpm!

Heh, I noticed the RPM's as well, I think they are accurate. Also, I was almost on E which the cluster still shows.

Do you have any conscious memory of the accident as it was happening?


I wonder how that would've played out if your car had a pano-roof, not that they were available on C32's anyway. Just a thought.

Had the seatbelt not snap he would surely perished. So in this case it wasn't the car, but he was fortunate that he was ejected from the vehicle before it folded onto itself.

Mercedes or not anyone sitting in that thing would have been crushed.

TREZ63 01-27-2007 03:31 PM

I can't even make sense of these pictures.
I think one thing everyone needs to consider is these are the pictures after transport to the junkyard correct? So it probably looks a bit worst that it was. BUT regardless. You should be dead from the looks of the car.
Hope your recovery goes well and that you have learned a good lesson from all this.
Getting behind the wheel is gonig to be terrifying for a while now. Just take it easy. And remember these cars can't do miracles.

Tectite.Metal 01-27-2007 06:25 PM

Lucky yes u are(Thank God) wow.... And a big ******* MORON you are as well for the bone head moves.. These cars are amazing and fast but they are just as nice being glared upon.

:zoom:

FrankW 01-27-2007 10:11 PM
