In a scene resembling a stunt from a James Bond movie, a man was thrown, seemingly unharmed, through his sunroof during a car crash in Dudley, Central England. Are you currently trying to sell or purchase a new or used SUV? If this seems like you, find the perfect Ford at used car sales!

Seen on camera coming out of sunroof

The male was seen on a camera getting tossed out of the sunroof just to roll on the ground and get up without any injuries, it seemed. It looked like an action scene out of a Bond film. The Peugeot 406 rolled through a fence and into the back yard of someone.

Domestic argument

According to WFMJ news, the driver was in a heated argument with her boyfriend, the passenger in the vehicle, when she lost control of the vehicle. Other than that, it is a pretty uninteresting story.

The WFMJ report said:

"The passenger is seen flying through the broken sun roof as the car careens off the road and flips on its side. The man had reportedly been in the middle of a loud argument with the driver, his girlfriend, when the vehicle lost control and rolled onto a garden wall. He stood up, dusted himself off, and checked on his girlfriend."

Getting up and walking away

Howard Hamilton, the 75-year-old owner of the property where the accident occurred, told the Express & Star:

"He was flying from the car like a rag doll. A woman got out of the car and they were hugging each other. It was like they couldn't believe they were still alive."

The passenger and driver were hospitalized, treated and released since only small injuries occurred.

Accidents common in area

In the last ten years, there have been at least six crashes in that particular stretch of road, according to Howard, though the Sunday, July 8 rollover was the most dramatic yet. The stretch of road is evidently a good place for crashes.

In order to catch the speeders who go past his home, Hamilton set up some surveillance cameras.

Tragic side note

Last month, in Rohnert Park, Calif., Donna McMorrow, 47, was killed in a similar accident. She rolled her 2010 Toyota Corolla and was ejected through the sunroof. The California Highway Patrol reported that she had not been putting on her seat belt correctly.

How can you not put your seatbelt on correctly? Surely it's something you learn at an early age? Oh, interesting spam btw
