Funny as all get out

The crash tests of the Smart hitting a brick wall at 70 MPH show slightly more
damage than the "G" in that video.

I believe that the engineers in Stuttgart have succeeded in so far surpassing
the human body's ability to survive the Secondary (your body against the
car's restraints or internal components) or Tertiary (your internal organs impact
against the restrained outer casing of your body[your brain against your skull] )
That the next step will be some kind of externally deployed airbag to help with
decompression of the impact forces on your body ('Whole front bumper would
be a giant airbag container).
