No video but action shots of during the crash and after the vehicle comes to rest.

X5: http://www.iihs.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/00023.htm This is at 40MPH but you can see how it would escalate from there. The passenger compartment is well intact. With seatbelts, you'll probably have no more than a sore, bruised knee from the knee bolster.

S10 Blazer: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle%5Fr...html/96002.htm this is the same test. Look at where the front wheel is during the crash and deformed the passenger compartment is.

This is why i said the X5 driver will more than likely buy another one when he gets his check
