not on it own.....I'm sure a Chevy got it going to begin with......as the Focus was running for its life! and the adrenaline kicked in!

at least the air bags worked!!

At least we know it has good crumple zones. That said, I think the trauma from going 120 to 0 that fast alone would be enough to kill someone, let alone the whole "crushed instantly" thing.

Well here is a Pontiac Firebird at 100+ mph:

I watched that show "i shouldn't be alive" or whatever its called and that was on there. CRAZY!

now correct me if I am wrong but wouldn't that 120 mph crash be the same as two cars going 60mph hitting head on?
