I have to admit, Germans do things so much more neatly than Australians...

I'm betting Bambi at 140 mph because it went in the grille and knocked the motor off it's mounts, instead of over the hood through the windshield.
Besides, how in hell would they know what it weighed? Some of it had to have gone out the bottom.... especially the fluids.
Roe deer (the kind they have in Germany) max out at ~70lbs. So, any of the claims of 100-140lbs are probably either hopeless exaggeration, or North Americans substituting the wrong kind of deer in their made-up-to-go-with-the-pictures story.

Dog-sized, yes, but, um, not really enough physical evidence to go on. No cute widdle feetsies or headsies in evidence.

So, I'd wager 50lb deer, at ~100mph. Just mussed up the plastic cosmetic engine cover somewhat. But, well, no way to tell?

Bleargh.

Good point. The Germans would never lie to us about anything. Had to be Americans.

I resemble that remark!
I keep telling HM to stop calling himself middle aged as I am only 10 months younger than him and nowhere near it yet.

But Bruce's cartoon made me snort involuntarily - a bad thing in the library.
