Still Life With Cameraphone: Jaws Of Life

Driving in to DC on Thursday, we were passed by no less than 10 emergency vehicles, including multiple fire trucks and ambulances. When we finally crawled up on the scene we saw the firemen cutting this guy out of his car with the Jaws of Life.


They cut the top off his car, which was smashed front and back and turned around backwards on the Interstate. Given the heavy volume of traffic on 66 East during the morning rush hour, I'm wondering how anyone got up enough speed to have an accident of this magnitude.

By the grace of God this guy was alive. Makes you think: it could happen to you. Stay close to God. Kiss your wife and kids.
