[quote:Anonymous Coward 1007391:MV8xMTc4MDA5XzE5MDc2MzEyXzU1M0EwQzM3] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1070511] I tired going out crashing my car at 60mph without a seatbelt on. hit a rock I didn't see before hitting the tree, sent my car rolling down the hill 8 times or so (according to the insurance people), woke up with the car on its side still sitting in the driving position. I looked down to see I was not laying on the ground, but sitting like the car was on all 4 tires. only scratch on me was crawling out through my shattered sunroof, nicked my pinky. freakiest moment of my life. Try it next time at 100mph remember when trying to top yourself you do not need to obey the speed limits. [/quote] I could only get up to 60-65.. the v6 was given me all she got, with the distance i Had to work with. [/quote]

NEW YORK, Sept. 1 (UPI) -- A New York man says his son will recover after a 39-story fall from a Manhattan high-rise that left him badly injured but alive.
Thomas Magill, 22, underwent surgery for two broken legs Tuesday night after landing feet-first on the roof of a parked Dodge belonging to a construction worker from Jersey.
"He's stable now," Magill's dad, Thomas Magill Sr., told reporters. "We can only hope he'll be OK."
"He came down feet-first at like 100 miles per hour" witness Andrew Petrocelli, told the New York Daily News. "That's a miracle if I've ever seen one. He should be a goner."
