“Staggering Drop”

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/ondeadline/post/2010/09/new-yorker-survives-39-story-plunge-into-parked-car/1

A New York music student survived an apparent suicide attempt when he jumped 39 stories and crash-landed through the windshield of a car, landing in the back seat. His survival was bittersweet, though. The owner of the car had just washed it.

Witnesses say he plummeted into the car at what seemed like 100 miles per hour. No cops were around though, to ticket him for speeding.

It’s even more amazing that he survived the crash without wearing a seatbelt.
