Well yesterday i was borrowing my grandmas car as they were using my truck. come around a corner that i wasnt ready for(no road signs on a country road) and seen a deer went off into a 7 ft deep ditch hit head on slide about 10 ft, then toppled over 2 times. Wasnt fun, came out with just a few scratches and bruises.











The last picture is the skid going off the road. Car was covered under her insurance. I got lucky.
 
Your very lucky you survived. Alot of dead people would be more than happy to have there granny yell at them for wrecking there car. Just learn from it, and you will be ok!

damn nathan,
glad you're alright !

but you shoulda hit the deer instead and called granny to tell her "dinner is on me" :)
 
I had to walk half a mile to get help. Had no cell service, was out in the sticks going to a friend's house. Still bringing bits and pieces of the wreck to me everyday.
 
Wow bro glad to hear your okay, by the looks of it things could have turned out MUCH worse. Near death experiences always put things, and life in perspective ... If nothing else is gained from this whole experience, a new found respect and appreciation for life will be. It's almost human nature to slowly but surely lose site of how fragile life is ... I'm not trying to be all preachy but there's a good saying that is perfect for times like this ... " Life is a gift, that's why they call it the present " !
