Well i guess i'll post the pic. This is the aftermath of hitting a tree at 80mph. Blew out all the windows, 6 inches forward and i would have been killed, if i didn't have my seatbelt i'm sure i would have been thrown out of the car. I had to be cut out of the car, but i was 100% unharmed as was my "friend". Needless to say were not friends anymore.

it's crazy, .... we went to the movies one time, some buds and I. Two hot girls sat behind us, and I got one of their numbers(the one I liked, hahaha).... they drove off in a Suzuki Samurai, and I couldn't get a hold of her. Week later, a friend handed me the paper, "2 Killed in fairly minor rear end accident on Wilshire Blvd." They rear ended a car at 35 MPH, ....the motor came off the mounts, right through the firewall and crushed the one I was talking too..... the other girl had her femoral artery severed, and died on the way to the hospital. AND I LIVED? Telling ya, man!

One time, a guy in front of me headed out into the intersection on Pacific Coast Hwy in Torrance, CA(trust me, ppl drive around 60 in a 45zone there, all the time).... as he headed out, we all started honking as we saw an early 80's, lifted Bronco heading into the intersection at around 70, running the red light. The Bronco hit the front clip of the car(a Camry), and tore the motor, front end COMPLETELY clean off! NOT A SCRATCH! 1 second more, if the guy had not taken his time heading out into the intersection....., him and his son would be dead!

Let's all be safe out there, eh? FHEWWWW!
