This is probably the luckiest (or unluckiest I guess) BMW driver you'll ever read about...

Lucky to walk away from it. I bet the emergency services had some fun getting it back off the rails.

Crikey! Very lucky guy.

Wow, looks like he hit the rail ass first. Must have been travelling at quite a rate to manage that.

Lucky, however 'slipped on wet Tarmac' .....

Anyhow, takes some doing to get that through the car, it sort of looks it came in from the rear.

Must have "slipped" at some rate of speed to have the momentum to completely impale the car. Always amazes me how people can walk away unscathed from accidents like this and then some other unfortunate person kills themselves at 30mph.

It's obvious looking at he picture that it was a rear collision. The journo writing the story got it wrong.......
