Raw: Lucky Woman Barely Escapes Car Collision

Meanwhile in Poland...

Wow, talk about lucky and being in the right place at the wrong time. This woman's life was saved by a simple light pole, albeit, one helluva strong one...

A lamp post saved a very lucky pedestrian in Poland from being hit by a speeding car that became involved in an accident in the central Polish city of Kalisz. Surveillance video showed the moment the cars collided - and the escape.

12 Year Old Trips, Punches Hole in $1.5 Million Painting

Ooops! A 12-year-old Taiwanese boy did what most of us only dread or see on TV - trip near an expensive painting and then using it to catch the fall. The youngster was holding a cup when he punched a hole into the painting - a 350-year-old Paolo Porpora oil on canvas painting called 'Flowers', said to be worth $1.5m. Guess it ain't worth that now...

Truck Crashes into a Highway Sign

We're guessing the driver of this truck from Saudi Arabia forgot the container was up when he crashed it through a highway sign - something we don't see too often here, thank goodness!...

Crash on Russian Highway leaves Everything YELLOW!

Whoa! Poor fella! That's ROAD paint. That can't be easy to get off?

A truck carrying yellow paint for marking the roads, was hit from behind by another driver while heading down Russia's M-4 "Don" highway splattering yellow paint EVERYWHERE including on the trucks, road and one of the drivers, and it all made for a really colourful scene.

Both drivers were taken to hospital and found to be ok.

In the meantime, let's check out and admire this golden-mustard-daffodil scene for a few moments, because you know we probably won't see something like this anytime soon again.

The video footage below was captured after the accident.

American Tourist Killed in Lion Park Attack near Johannesburg

Even with signs posted everywhere to KEEP THE WINDOWS CLOSED people still drive this park with them open. People, please keep your windows closed when driving through an animal safari - ESPECIALLY a Lion one, and lock your doors because as you will see in the last video, lions can sometimes open unlock doors too!

Video snapshot of yellow police tape around the SUV where the attack took place

A twenty-two-year-old American tourist was attacked and killed by a lioness at the Gauteng Lion Park near Johannesburg, South Africa and a tour guide was injured trying to fight off the lioness.

This attack is said to be the third attack in three months. The young woman apparently had her car window opened even though there were signs posted everywhere warning people to keep their windows closed.

Park employee Scott Simpson said, “There was a car driving to the lion camp and the lion came through the window and it bit the tourist. Unfortunately, the ambulance arrived quite soon but the lady has passed away.”

But We Thought it Was a Work of Art? Crane Topples At Dallas Museum Of Art

It's getting harder and harder nowadays to distinguish between reality and modern art. A lot thought this crane-toppled-atop-a-building (an art museum building nevertheless), was a fine piece of artwork display until they discovered it wasn't one...

Car accident. Videoed myself.

Andrew MacDonald, from Victoria, B.C., who was not under the influence of any kind, fell asleep at the wheel, hit a pole and lived to tell about it. In fact, he partially captured himself being rescued by paramedics as the 'jaws of life' could be heard in the background...

The death of my D675 and birth of my Ninja skills: Idiot cager blows red light

It's another one of those vids we had to slow down to really see. Just like the accident that happened in an instant, so too was the destruction of this guy's heavily customized 2011 Daytona 675. Some people argue he was in the wrong but when you replay the vid in slow motion, you will see the car was clearly at fault. Luckily, the biker was able to walk away with only some bumps and bruises and later suffered some tissue damage in his left knee. Perhaps it was all the 'armory' he was wearing? This all took place in downtown San Francisco... 

For those interested in what gear I was wearing during the accident:
- Icon Variant helmet
- Icon Automag leather jacket with built in CE armor
- Alpinestars Bionic Air CELevel 1 back protector insert
- Alpinestars SP2 gloves - Fox Comp 5 Shorty boots

Star Wars, Tie Figther accident on the highway

Lol. Just another accident captured on dash cam. This motorist in Germany was just casually driving along the highway when he captured the Tie Fighter and its debris scattered along the highway along with the two galactic storm troopers waiting patiently to be picked up. 

The footage, obviously a fake, was presumably created by a fan of the show and the clip was posted on the Facebook page of the Dein Sky Fim channel. It has proved to be quiet a hit, and has already amassed an astronomic amount of views, in excess of seven million. - RT

This isn't the first time a Star Wars fan has shown his creative side with a vid that also racked up millions!! Check out this one we posted a while back!

Fireworks accident / explosion in italy [Full HD]
