Hell, he might have went all the way over the bridge if he hadn't caught the guardrail on the way up.

I think he was trying to commit suicide or something.

Anybody else notice that the brake lights dont come on until the car is airborne?

Hopefully the kid will live to understand his unimaginable stupidity and the incredible guardianship the Lord provided over him.

Because he was stupid, and he has no business driving ever again

Yet more proof (if any was needed) that these things are just downright dangerous.

A mustang would have survived that accident with nary a scratch!!! Ok a couple of scratches!

Any word on if the guy made it out of critical condition???
