True. We tend to forget just how fragile the human body is especially when it comes up against heavy fast moving solid objects. I had a friend that I used to go duck hunting with. About a year ago he was driving his two sons to school eastbound on I-10 in the morning. Traffic stopped, he stopped, the semi behind him going 60 mph didn't and pushed his full sized Chevy duel cab pickup into the semi in front of him consequently depatitating him and obliterating his 9 year old son who was sitting in the back seat just behind him. They barley found enough of the kid to make a positive DNA ID. BTW, his 17 year old son was sitting in the front passenger seat and was left unscratched and very much counscious. He had to sit in the wreck of the truck next to his father for about 30 minutes until fire crews could cut him free.
Scares me to death and I ain't afraid of nuthin'.
