I've seen that Trailblazer one before, must not been enough impact for the airbag to go off apparently, and wonder if any of that mess was the driver, I think that happened in WI if I remember. That moose is nuts! Once in Canada we saw a moose get split in half by a guy on a crotch rocket, they both didn't fair too well.

my dad is a helicopter pilot and hit a flock of geese while flying. one of them nearly took off his head. If I could ever figure out how to post a pic here I would show you guys some pics.

ok, there isn't as much blood but they are impressive, seeing that he was how many miles in the air? totally blew out the whole front windshield, he had to land in some farmers field in the middle of the night...... 2 or 3 am I think.

Wow that would be freaky in a chopper!

I hit a bird one time and it put a nice clean hole in the window and spatted on my passenger seat. Almost gave me a heart attack. I can only imagine having a deer or moose come through the window.

The original set of deer pic’s just made the local paper. The women driving the mini van suffered a broken arm several cuts and bruises as well as some stitches in the face. Pretty fortunate considering that is a 50 mph road and she had 8 points powered by 200 plus in body mass come through her front window. I would imagine she took a few years off her life though due to the stress suffered in those few seconds. I know this would have SCARED THE SH_ _ out of me !!! I can hear the conversation with the insurance agent now the mess on the passenger seat is from the deer. The mess on the drivers seat is from me.
