Stunt Plane Crashes Into Car At German Air Show, Family Miraculously Survives (VIDEO)

CBS has amazing video of a German air show in which a stunt goes horribly wrong. A bi-plane is doing a stunt in which is spirals basically straight down towards the ground, but the pilot pulled up too late and the plane skims the ground and smashes into a car holding a family of three.

Miraculously, the family escaped with nothing but minor injuries, as did the pilot.

There are bold pilots and there are old pilots, and now there are old bold pilots.

Have a cigar.
Any landing is a good landing?

[MajorKong]

A good landing is any landing you can walk away from.

A great landing is one where they can use the airplane again.

When are they finally going to stop John McCain from piloting planes?

[GeorgeBright]

Almost as cool as the car crash from yesterday - can we see something blow up tomorrow?

Fortunately everyone survived, unlike that horrific accident at the air show in Ramstein in 1988.

He hasn't bought the farm yet but the money is definitely in escrow... ;)

[gle helle]

He's renting with an option to buy.

[Littlewords]

Hey bailed on the deal at the last moment. But no worries, word is he is heading back out to locate new purchase opportunities in the near future. Let's just hope it is a single buyer purchase and not a joint investment with others.

Of course, I suppose it could have been a Toyota or a Chevy, since you can't see the car in the video...

You gotta love those BMW safety standards!
