Sorry I missed that Mike.  I still had to watch the video twice to see the flying man. That was horrible and sad.  It enforces the reasons to buckle up, even though (in rare cases like this) the person's life would likely be lost inside or outside of the vehicle.

JB 's video links shows the driver had no way to avoid this accident. The other car pulled out directly in front of him while he was traveling at highway speed.....he couldn't do anything, and probably saw nothing.

Some ejections turn out better than others.

I'm surprised that no one (within) camera view went to check on the flying Wallenda over the guard rail.

Probably too busy Tweeting photos of the scene.
