What are the odds of surviving a car wreck @ 107mph and you exit the car?

I wrecked a 97' Saturn SC2 at 107 mph, taking a turn. I flipped the car three times and flew out the driver side window (which was down). I really dont remember the wreck, just from the marks in the feild they told me the car must have flipped three times. I am positive about the speed though. I am 90% sure about the window I left from due to the windsheld and back window being broken but not out of the car, and the passenger window still mostly in. The car was torn to peaces, wheels ether broken off or pushed into the trunk. The engin was bent about a foot down, just not much of a car left. I was wondering what are the odds of surviving a wreck of that nature, with no seatbelt, 107 mph and left the car?

Odds just got better, as you are proof! Good work surviving, but can you get back in your car, or are your nerves shot. My hat off to you. Your a champ. Ever considered becoming a stuntman? NASCAR driver? Can you give me driving tips. maybe you should try it again, in a better car, and go faster! What are the odds that you wouldn't survive. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger!!!!!!!

I would say the odds are about the same as being hit by lightening.

forget the odds!!! What are you going to do with your 2nd chance at life????

Ur a real idiot!!!! who the hell drives a saturn 107mph in the first place!?! And then tries to turn it? Were you drunk? because thats the only way someone would be that dumb and survive. Being intoxicated increases your chances of surviving a wreck because you don't go into shock as easy. P.S Buy a race car or buy a car that can handle 107 a saturn is an yupie city car not a dukes of hazard 100+mph car!!!

Are you messed up in the head? What were you doing going 107 without a seat belt on? You should be dead for such ingnorance and reckless disregard for the saftey of other people on the road!

Slim to none. Consider yourself a walking miracle. But here's my two cents worth...don't push your luck...surviving one is a miracle; surviving two just won't happen.

What can I tell you, it sounds like a tall tale. What kind of field, a foam rubber one? You had no serious injuries?
Oh, the odds of winning the lottery are better than surviving an accident that you described.

I can't talk to you - you are dead. Seriously though, probably what saved you is that you did get thrown from the car. You are one lucky son of a gun. Odds are you should be dead.


chick_on_a_stick69
the odds are not good... but you lived so your a lucky one! I have seen recks that ppl were going 55 and the car flip they had their seat belts on and never got ejected and they died. I have seen a lot of accidents but you are lucky.. the exact odds i wouldnt be able to tell you numbers but i bet your friends and family are happy your still with them. slow down wear a seat belt and just be safe... Car accidents are scary, and its really bad news to have to tell to the families. like i said twice before your lucky! but here is a web site that might help you a lil bit more good luck. its on that first page very bottom it just says auto accidents and then he odds....

What kind of question is this?

the odds are 1:528. Trust me. I'm a statistician.

We're all glad your alive, but isn't there a better place to relate your story?

Slim to none. You are indeed lucky. From now on keep your speed down to the speed limit.
