Re: A lucky escape
Very lucky or a miracle.? 
Iguess some of it was down to the car. (chevy') they must be made of strong stuff.
unlike some of the car's we have over here.

Very lucky.
I suspect it was more the result of where those two trailers came to rest than the strength of the 'meat in the sandwich'.

Re: A lucky escape
I remember seeing similar photos some years ago when a guy was sandwiched in his Volvo 340. In that instance it was the strength of the body that ensured his survival. Volvo paid him to use the photos and his story as part of their sales campaign. I don't remember seeing any Volvo literature with the story though.
