The way that the car landed makes me wonder how he lived. Looks like had the car hit the building a little more forward and the cabin made contact with the edge of the roof directly supported by the exterior wall, the cabin would have been crushed. He’s equally lucky the car didn’t just hit the alleyway below, because that would have been a much harder stop. I’ve always wondered if the walls of multilevel parking garages were strong enough to stop a car from falling over...apparently not always.

Those look like Chevy or VW wheels to me. Not sure what it is, but I want to say it’s a Cruze or a Jetta.

Looks like the relatively soft roof and trusses took the impact. Had that been a concrete surface, it’d be game over, man. #RIPpaxton

And let’s go to the judges and see what they have to say. Ooh, a solid 34.9 points out of a total of 40, with the hometown judge giving a high score of 9.2, most likely for style, distance and rotation. I’d have to say the total would have been higher if the driver would have stuck the landing, however a good showing for his first time out.

I’m thinking Jetta with the short front overhang and the big ass, it screams Jetta. Or was that the Jetta screaming? ...

According to the report, he got out of the car by himself and they found him in the store.

Now with cool drone footage.....turns out the ‘wall’ was just a cinderblock side wall, it appears no other reinforcement or bracing.
