Just this January (29th) I was in a car accident.
I hit a patch of ice, went into a pole about 40 ft away.
Wrapped the car around the pole and It took em 50 minutes to get me out (they used the jaws of life and cut off the roof and snipped the parts between the ront/back doors.
I had a broken left femer, which I was told is pretty much the worst bone you can break, as its the largest weight bearing bone in your body.
They also said teh doors were 30ft dow nthe road to either side.. (front doors) apparently they popped off lol.. When I woke up in the car(was knocked unconsious) I was sitting in the passenger seat and the thing at the base of the seatbelt was broken.. it was quite a scene=P
They were gonna take me in the hellicopter(sp?) but the weather was too bad, so it didn't happen=/
Its pretty cool what they can do nowadays.. I got a titanium rod from hip to knee.. no cast, just some ace bandage lol. They had me starting pysical therapy just 2 days after the accident.
oh the car was a 2000 VW golf.
thats all i've got.. I was pretty lucky up to that point... and I was actually lucky just to get a broken leg I guess.. =)
