jEstEr? knows their stuff
Default 08 sti crash





I fell asleep (or blacked out) behind the wheel. They say I was traveling over 110mph. The car went start into a lowered median. It nose dived into the ground and began filpping front over rear. Unknown amount of flips but there were 6 divets out of the earth from where I went off road to where the car ended up. This photo includes my father, who was very glad i owned a Subaru! All the car parts were piled behind the car




rest of the thread at nasioc... holy fuck!

Thats one serious Crash.

That STI is in parts all over the place.

Look at all the bloody airbags its got.

No wonder its a 5 Star ANCAP rating.

if he was blacked out / asleep, i recon that may have contributed to him being alive. Body goes pretty limp and probably what kept him alive. Had he been awake, he would have tensed up and gone rigid, and I would say there would be more than blood on those airbags.

PS: lol @ ppl who don't read the whole post ^^
