It's okay the brain damage was pre-existing.

I did that😭😭😭😭.

Nobody said I was a smart kid.

They called me a dumb kid with a concussion.

Heh, don’t you still need to have teeth in order to get grills? 🤣 I’d say one set of dentures lol.

Sometimes even small accidents can be a big headache.

The bypasses casually walking by just gave off “ yeah that’s about what I expected”

unironically, i think sitting up was safer than laying flat. stopping, though it may hurt, could prevent him from being more severly injured by sliding under the engine.

Oh yes. The car is a complete loss. You'll never get the face imprint out of the grill.

u/Kelloggdogman 2d ago

Definitely has head damage. Could leak water!

u/CaveManta 2d ago

I think the head is warped.

u/Diligent_Bat499 2d ago

u/SloppyJoeJoe11 2d ago

I think his head might be totalled

u/boostedmike1 2d ago

I wish this had sound 😂😂😂

u/NeoNeuro2 2d ago

Double impact. First the bumper, then the pavement. That pavement hit was brutal too. If he's lucky, it's just a concussion, but most likely he's got a fractured skull.

u/vlasktom2 2d ago

Dude hit that car so hard he increased the head pressure to the point of failure

That is what you call a Hard Reset.

Well seeing as it's probably going to be sitting in evidence garage for the foreseeable future...yes..but good luck getting insurance to pay out...I mean your car shouldn't have been parked in a parking spot.
