Talk about luck! photos
Divine intervention at its best !
Read The Caption on the first photo then look at the second photo
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-olddriver 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 below...scroll down, all the way down.....

Jeez, talk about your luck. The question is, do people that stupid deserve that kind of good fortune? Lets not speed by the quarry, duh.

They should be very thankful after surviving that. Life changing event definitely.
Stock the tank you have, not the tank you plan to have. Always have and use patience.

I thought the same thing......a cement wall needs to be there not that crummy little guard rail. But, hello........speeding on that road was stupid. I assume his girlfriend was with him. Bet daddy put an end to that friendship.

First pic, I was like, okay, cool. They survived, no real damage. Then I saw the second photo. Unbelievable! I could not have ever imagined something like that. To be that fortunate is truly a gift, and one definately not something I would ever test again. Some angel was riding with them that day.....
