Man survives 40-story fall, with help from Dodge
Strange News Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
It’s been said before: just because you fall 40 stories from a tall building doesn’t necessarily means it’s the end, or something like that.
Thomas Magill, 22, a New Yorker who jumped from a Manhattan high-rise learned that lesson Monday as he plummeted through the sky and finally into the backseat of a Dodge Charger after crashing through its windshield, The New York Post reported.
Police don’t know why he jumped, but he suffered a broken leg, a shattered ankle and a collapsed lung and is listed in critical condition. He was also conscious when EMS workers showed up. Ouch.
Guy McCormack, 40, who borrowed his wife’s car to drive to work at a nearby construction site told the Associated Press that the rosary beads inside the Dodge saved the young aspiring actor’s life.
