Quite a wood the guy's got there
Gives a new meaning to gotten screwed.

It's not speed that kills, it's the stupidity that drives it.

We had one on a snow machine here do that with a branch through his chest and survive. One in Asia, somewhere, rode a motorcycle into a truckload and pinned himself and a passenger onto a pipe or something similar and survived... amazing luck.
