Ok, of course there is a catch:

...at 140 mph

This:


Then this:

 

speechless.......

 

OMFG.................................. that is awesome. Hope the guy or girl was ok.

 

That's exactly what I thought.... and is it me or is that a 3-series in the bottom pictures and not a 6-series?

I just have to say, OWNED! Not only the BMW, but also the deer. Imagine hitting the deer, pulling over, checking your grill and thinking, WTF happened to the deer? Look behind you, no deer. Open the hood.... holy shit!

I wouldn't be laughing at all if this happened to me, but that is so funny to see the pics....

 

The first picture is the wrong car.

 

How the deer went past the hood into the engine bay is still beyond comprehension for me.

 

Did it get sucked up through the bimmer nostrils or something? Hitting a deer at 140 would do way more than that....wouldnt it?

 

that is amazing! what are the odds?

 

that's freakin awesome....i feel for the guy who's gonna have to pick the deer nuggets out the engine compartment

 

Thats awesome I thought deer stayed off the autobahn.

 

I wonder if its totalled? If it was my car I would sure hope so. Couldn't drive that thing anymore.....

 

mmmmm

 

that doesn't look like its possible

 

and no way that is a Deer maybe a dog or a smaller animal. we all have seen what happens when a deer hits a car.

 

It may seem counterintuitive, but oftentimes the more speed you have the less damage the impact does due to your momentum.

 

On second thought, it may be a dog. I don't see antlers or anything, and I don't think deers have fur that long.



Mind explaining this?

 

I guess horsepower is overrated

to whatever is in there.

 

after staring at the pix for sometime i am 99.9% sure its not a deer and its a dog or a similar animal

 

buck have antlers and doe do not

 

I believe its a deer. I hit one doing around 110 once passing a group of cars and it exploded on impact. The largest part was a hind leg.

I bet teh motor is fubar. Ive seen wild turkeys go thru radiators aon pickup trucks and even one that cracked a block

 

Looks like a deer to me, just not a fully grown one, a fawn.

 

i wish we could see the interior. the engine has to be in the back seat.

 

it looks kind of like a deer. not a 150 pound deer though.a 150 pound deer would have most likely gone through the windshield.

 

They killed bambi. That's rough man. I hope the passengers/driver were okay at least.

 

Wow, i have never seen anything like that before. That is amazing!

 

 

I don't have an explanation, just experience. I've personally seen a car that hit a deer at 70+mph and only the corner blinker was damaged. I've also seen a car that hit a deer at just 35mph and the whole front end was crumpled.....

 

Tight Fit

 

Wow.

My money is on the deer exploding on impact and only a good chunk of him getting sucked in the engine bay.

 

Ouch... poor deer.

 

Were both of the cars of the same make/model? And how big were each deer? And did they hit the deer in the same area, i.e. the center (you said one of them only had a damaged blinker), etc. It really sounds counterintuitive.

That really sounds completely counterintuitive.... imagine walking vs. a full sprint into a wall of cinderblocks. You walk into them face first, and impact the cinderblocks square with your face, and you end up with some scratches. Next, starting from the same distance. You sprint full speed into the cinderblocks at full speed with your face, and then end up with a bloody nose, bruised forehead, chin, etc.

Not that I didn't believe you... its just seems to be the opposite of common sense.

 

Yeah, upon further examination I think you're right. Could it be the last gen 6 series, w/o the restyled frontend? The headlights look too big to be a 3 series.
Anyway that really doesnt matter.

I got this from a buddy of mine in an e-mail. It didn't come with an explanation; what I posted was pretty much what was in the e-mail, sorry.

It is pretty amazing that this happened. At least it was a quick death. In the first actual picture it looks like you can make out a left rear leg and the tail, maybe?

 

Could be worse

^^ oo yeah , thats what im talking bout

 

Oh Deer!

 

Yeah, I figured they had to be on the internet somewhere.

It wasn't a repost though I don't think.

 

Yeah, that moose thing is pretty crazy.
I guess it's pretty common up there though

How would you like to die like that? Having a moose take off the roof of your car and take you out? Dang!

 

that poor, poor car. I hope its alright.

 

That just killed me!!! Just like a Bimmer plowing into me at 150mph.
