Any crash you walk away from is a ok one really.

Cars can be replaced as has been stated already, although it is gutting it's only money at the end of the day.

Hi all,

Sorry i've not posted here but i've only just found out about this topic. Thanks Idrees for posting it here :)

As for the circumstances of the accident i have the details from the police now. I can't say it is true because i obviously don't know but it is from a good source. I have gone to overtake two cars on a straight and passed them both and got back in. But as i have pulled back in the back end has gone very light and the car went sideways. I have then corrected this to get straight again but i have over corrected and pulled on the other side of the road. The Land Rover coming in the opposite direction pulled as far over his side as he could to let me past but it didn't happen and we collided and with such force he was facing the other way. I went spinning out of control and was pulled out of my car by my seatbelt. After i stopped 40 yards away from the Land Rover i was amazingly under the front of my car no where to be seen. In the first few minutes people could not find me and neither could Craig. He managed to persuade someone to give him a lift off Snake Pass to get signal to ring the emergency services while i was still not found.

Then i moaned under the car and people found me under the car. A quick thinking person got a jack and lifted the car off me, which saved my life. Then i as taken care of and wrapped up in blankets and as you can see there was plenty of blood. After the emergency services turned up me and Craig went to seperate hospitals. I was 50/50 survival for the first night until i stabilized. I woke up in intensive car with lots of tubes hanging from all over me and a machine showing all my stats. I don't remember intensive care but i was awaking and cracking jokes apparently. Then the next thing i remember was waking up in a trauma ward as i'd improved enough to come out of intensive care.

At the scene, the police thought i was not going to make it so the scene was closed for 5 hours.

I was speeding while overtaaking but by the time i'd finished i was back down below the 50 limit. I've also been taken up there recently and there is still a lot of bits from my car. The car has been written off and im not allowed to get it back due to the bad condition of it. The car you see is how it stopped, no cutting at all!!!

Thanks for everyones good wishes as well. :)

holy fuck mate.glad your ok tho.this just shows the difference between our cars and the 5 star safety rating cars of today.that is crazy ripped apart!!
as for the speeding bit, no one is an angel.if we were we wouldnt be spending all our cash on modifying our cars.
think it was monkfish who once said "its just a kit-kat wrapper with a turbo".after seeing this it just proves the point :(

glad both of you fellas are alive.

we had a crash locally just the weekend past, my 2nd cousin was killed (just back from his funeral now) and another 2nd cousin is still, well hopefully going to make it.

Be safe folks.
