LARGE Tree vs Bronco

[tourproto]

F=ma (and trees have a LOT of mass, even if the acceleration isn't a full 32ft/sec/sec, a "little" 'a' and a big 'm' still equals a big mother-nature F)

If you have ever seen a toppled tree from an ice storm cut through a 2 story house like a hot knife through butter, you can understand how the tree sliced through that Bronco. I'm actually surprised that it didn't cleave the Bronco cleanly in half. Maybe the curb acted like a bump-stop.

2 door would have handled that

Irrelevant. God would never forsake a 2-door like that.

I don’t know the unlucky owner. This was spotted near Monument Avenue in Richmond, VA.

The real question is, “ how many times did they rotate the tires?”

Hey.... that bumper looks pretty intact....

I know - snag those Fender Flares also.

For Sale: 5 SAS tires/rims which have successfully passed a high-G vertical impact test.

Gentlemen, begin radical, vertical, impact simulation... now.

Clearly that Bronco had no PPF! I'm convinced things would have turned out considerably different had they spent the extra cheddar.....

i’m pretty impressed how it looks like the front suspension held up.. love to see if there’s a bend in the frame. I knew those boron steel rails were tough but seeing them crumpled is eye opening.

All because a fat squirrel jumped from the adjacent gutter to the tree?
I wonder how a Jeep would’ve faired.

Brings a new meaning to "half-cab"

The Jeep would've been fine after the tree bounced off the 237 rubber ducks but the poor house would've been destroyed.

Figure about 150,000 pounds plus wind velocity behind it....if the poor soul WAS inside, at least it would've been quick.
