Read Caption on 1st photo then look at second photo.

Look at the picture above and you can see where this guy broke through the guardrail, right side where the
people are standing on the road (pointing). The pick-up was traveling from right to left when it crashed through
the guardrail, flipped end-over-end, across the culvert outlet,and landed right side up on the left side of the culvert, facing the opposite direction from which he was traveling.








Now look at the 2ND picture below...
If this guy didn't believe in God before, do you suppose he does now?

Talk about a close call! That's some drop there!

If I were the guy, I'd probably go home, quit my job, rethink my life priorities and go become
a volunteer for the poor and homeless....

Hmmm..... am I saying that I'm a materialistic shallow bastard.....?

Wow!!

That could have been nasty if he'd dropped off the cliff -- those pick-ups don't always have airbags
