Man Trapped Under Car After Crash on Cross County Highway - :: Cincinnati news story :: LOCAL 12 WKRC-TV in Cincinnati

This was me. I had a seizure while driving and ran off the road. The officer said I took out a number of trees and about 300 feet of fence.

The truck rolled over 2 times and I was ejected through the windshield. I was not wearing my seat belt.

The truck is totaled. I have scratches on my arms and back. I have cuts by my right eye and that eye is black and bruised and swollen. That's it, though.

I'm thankful I didn't take out any innocents. I'm also going to start wearing my belt. I have to start seeing the damn neurologist again, though.

Holy crap! Very lucky, glad you are still here! You should be asked by local high schools and middle schools to talk about the necessity of wearing seat belts.

To be fair, I think he just proved that seatbelts aren't necessary. :yahoo:

Glad you're still with us K-Man. That's some scary shit.

Yeah one could say this as well. But I still think he should be telling his story

Just got back from the body shop that had towed my truck to collect my personal items. Took some pics. I'd upload them here if I knew how.

After seeing the truck I'm even more stunned.

Apparently I went out the drivers side door window and not the windshield. The truck rolled over on top of me, but I was in a ditch or a little dip....thus I wasn't crushed.

Nice to see you're OK.

If you really want to upload them, you can either click the paper clip up to of the advanced posting box, or upload them somewhere like here and post the link like any other picture.

I tend to go without my seatbelt too. I just might put it on next time. Good that you came out it fine. Well, at least as close to fine as you were before the accident :)

Boy, they released you from the hospital quickly. Glad you were well enough to walk the hell out of that place. Hospital will kill you quicker than any other place. HA.

Who knows, wearing your seatbelt this time might have cost you your life, so maybe it was a good thing you didn't have it on. It is rare when not wearing a seatbelt is better than not wearing one, and who knows, maybe this might have been one of those times ifyou are out of the hospital posting and talking about it, rather than a coma or something.

Good to have you around man, no one can torment the piss out of me like you. So glad the board dynamic has not changed.
