Holy crap... I would have looked at those pics and assumed anyone in that car didn't make it. Amazing.

I imagine that all of the Porsches are built similarly and would perform along the same lines. I do believe that there was quite a bit of luck in that accident from looking at the photos but there is no doubt that the P'car had a lot to do with it. It is a game of millimeters at that point. I wrecked/totalled an 85 Carrera Targa in the classic 911 spin at high speed into a big tree and walked right out. Nowhere even close to those pics but they are obviously built very, very well. I am still in shock that he lived from that wreck. Angel loooking out for him.
