The world collectively gasped this week as jaw-dropping footage emerged from Oradea, Romania, where a silver Mercedes defied physics in a horrendous wreck. On December 3, chaos erupted when the sedan, barreling into a roundabout the wrong way like a bat out of hell, hit a curb so hard it practically launched into orbit.
You gotta see it to believe it: the car soared clean over a bus and two other vehicles, nearly decapitating a surveillance camera before smashing into a pole near a petrol station. Talk about dodging a bullet—those fuel pumps were just meters away. “Lucky” doesn’t begin to cover it.
Turns out, the 55-year-old driver slumped unconscious mid-route, blindsided by a brutal diabetic episode. No brakes, no steering—just terrifying momentum. Neighbours swore the crash sounded like a bomb going off.
Miraculously, though the Mercedes crumpled like tin foil, first responders pulled the guy out alive. Broken bones? Sure. But somehow, nothing fatal. Even cops shook their heads at the sheer dumb luck.
Now he’s staring down a 90-day license suspension and a 1,600-leu fine—chump change compared to what could’ve happened. Investigators are still piecing together how fast he was going before everything went sideways. One thing’s certain: that video’s gonna haunt the internet for a long while.
