Yeah, that happened about 30 miles from me... The firebird split into 3 pieces on impact. I saw pictures before the video. It's amazing he's alive.

He's one lucky dumb@$$.
Goes to prove my theory that a good chunk of people who drive Firebirds/late model Camaros are dumb@$$es.

yep, good way to recycle your car so no one has to crunch it and a really good way to recycle a human and become worm food.

Looks like he didn't realize he was about to crash into a police car, until the very last minute.
I think he made the right/ honorable choice to take his chances on the grass, rather than rear end a cruiser at that speed. Too bad that bridge was there.

Maybe he planned to do that just didn't end the way he wanted.

You know he was all "Weeeeee" Then he was all "Noooooooo" Now he's all "Owwwwwww." And tomorrow he'll be "..............".
Seems worth it for the air he caught.

I have family that are in the FOP and this is what I heard.
This crash happened on his way to wherever from being released after drug charges (cop found marijuana and paraphernalia in his car after finding him, 19, and a 15 year old girl in his car with a bottle of alcohol in a parking lot the night before).
Also got a ticket for doing 90 in a 65... nine days after being cited for "failure to control" in a crash. The police that charged him gave the girl a ride home and let him stay alone with his vehicle and keys "waiting" for a ride. It could have been a suicide attempt or just stupid?
