Your mate certainly had his mix of good/bad luck that day. Bad luck for the initail bird strike but bloody good luck he,s injuries were not more serious. Looks like a very scary off. :shock:

Glad your mate had some good fortune, but what I can't see in the pics is where the hell the road was.  How far did he travel off road?

Try this link, the lines on the road show the bend, the bird hit about the car at the left arm of the bloke wearing the blue overalls.

No probs mate, I think that where ever you got the link for the pics had already included the [img] tags. So when you diligantly put the link in the img tags it actually killed it.
