85 Firebird nails overpass....


This was caught (by chance) on a police cruiser camera. disbelief

"A 19-year-old Mason man driving south on Interstate 675 on Monday morning near the Indian Ripple Road exit crashed his car into an overpass, breaking the car into pieces and shutting down traffic for five hours.

The driver has been identified as Brennan S. Eden. He was undergoing surgery as of 4 p.m. Monday.

The specific cause of the crash has not yet been determined, but Ohio State Highway Patrol Lt. Marty Fellure said crash investigators are looking into whether speed played a factor. The investigators also will test for alcohol, which is a routine procedure.

Eden was seriously injured and flown to Miami Valley Hospital via a CareFlight helicopter, according to Fellure.

The accident happened about 7:15 a.m. Monday, Aug,. 23. Eden was driving a 1985 Pontiac Firebird south along the highway when the car went left of center and struck a culvert, which launched the car into the air until it struck the Wagner Road overpass. The Firebird disintegrated into many pieces. Eden was ejected and came to rest on the right berm of southbound I-675.

Investigators dont know how fast Eden was driving but suspect he was traveling in excess of the 65 mph speed limit."

WOW, talk about a firebird that flies.

Looks like he was going about 100mph when compared to the cop car.

The most amazing part is that the guy is alive. Sure like to hear his explanation.

I'd say 100 mph for sure, and Hollywood couldn't have pulled that one off.

For sure. Can't believe he did it, can't believe the timing of the camera, can't believe he lived, can't believe the car basically disintegrated, etc etc etc. That is absolutely amazing video...

My 1st. thought when I watched this was " SUICIDE" run, cop was in the fast lane & Fire Chicken looked like a deliberate run at the bridge????Hope I'm wrong,but why try to pass on the left when no lane there, seemed to have control of car as it was "dead nuts straight" aimed at the abutment.
