Honda Driver Walks Away From Terrible Rollover Crash

What are the chances for a driver to walk away from his car after flipping it seven times? Apparently pretty big, especially with the latest safety features available on almost all vehicles.

And we didn't find that out from a NHTSA test, but directly from a driver that survived a horrendous crash in his Honda Fit (Jazz in Europe).

After losing control of its car on a wet highway, which then rolled over seven times landing on its roof on a nearby field, the lucky driver was able to walk away from the crumpled vehicle in one piece.

The whole scene was recorded using a dash cam (no, it didn't happen in Russia, but Alabama, US) and posted on Youtube for everyone to see. The end of the clip also features one final shot of the Honda relic, taken after the driver got out of it, followed by a photo of the car in a junk yard.

Check out the video for yourselves:
