  • WHAT HURTS MOST...

    ... Is knowing the guy was doing his own thing, not realising within seconds his life was to be over, crossing the street possibly thinking of where he was headed; possibly home to catch up with friends?, to the shop to get milk?, maybe even singing the words to his favourite songs or complaining about the heat, walking home not even looking at the cars on the street, ? - such simple things, but not in the slightest even thinking within three seconds he could be physically shredded, having absolutely NO IDEA! Doesn't it break your heart? This guy dressed that day, with intentions to see the night through, to possibly kiss his babies or his woman good night? To go to golf the next day, or to meet up with friends. Oh the terror this man felt, walking across the street, could you even IMAGINE? Neither you nor I could compare the feelings to any terror this man felt. What would you do? A car collides with another, flies through the air and it's heading your way? WHAT WOULD YOU DO? There's nothing you can do! I saw this video months ago, and I spent a few nights wide awake convinced this guy died, and I cried for days on end - I didn't realise he survived, and to him I say - are you something special or what! In those moments when you almost drift of to sleep, you must stare up to the sky and see your life's worth. I am so happy to know you're alive, because when I saw the accident I melted in terror instantly, thinking what you saw and what you went through. This - to some people - may not be considered the 'worst accident'; not scaring them big time and then they go move on to the next one - but it makes you stop and think - how nice it would be to wake up the next day at 6am, hearing the birds sing and when a car goes by, you think "that was almost me...". I cry with happiness now - knowing your little face smiles, your little legs work and your little heart beats. God bless you and those you love. I wish you the best of love, life, happiness and the realisation this happened to help you see what you are capable of for the rest of your life. Enjoy!

    • What Hurts Most

      You are a very intact person. I too felt some of the feelings you have described. Thank you for speaking for those of us who care, as you do. I many times fear even going out of the house. I had a bad car wreck not too many months ago and it scared me so badly that I almost panic everytime I drive and see people that almost hit me whilst I try to be a safe driver. I went to hospital and my car was made like new again, however, I still have that fear. I have to drive far to get to my dental school and to drop off my beloved husband at his work, so, I have no choice but to be out there in that confusion and daily danger. It's so frightening. No matter how much I try not to think about what could happen, if I make any wrong moves in all that traffic. They seem to be all nuts at times. I especially fear for the children in these speeding vehicles and for the elderly drivers that might think they're home watching a movie, instead of driving, due to over medication. That's a real danger too. My nephew was hit by just such a person. She said she was sure she was watching TV and was surprised to be part of the action. Please, retest some of these people! Nobody wants their grandparents to be hurt in such a way.

    • Sad but not just an accident

      There were two laws broken by 2 people, and one of them paid a higher price for it. Yes, the moron that ran the light caused a lot of damage, but the pedestrian might have been killed anyway. He was jaywalking against the light. Most tragic events are not one problem but a series of them.

    • Obviously...

      if you're friend works in a funeral home, he sees dead bodies every second, which is why he probably got to realize people are dying every second. Although he'd probably think people in his own city are dying every second from seeing dead bodies all day.

    • Look again

      You missed it. I admire your compassion but in your pitty for a fool you missed the facts. If the light was red for the driver it was red for the pedestrian. He chose to ignore the law and walk into an intersection against a red light, thus placing himself in harms way. If you look even closer the driver of the SUV showed no sign of seeing the pedestrian and was on a collision course to kill him. Instead she was bumped off of that course by a red light runner who actually ended up saving the jaywalker's life. In the end he was fully responsible for what happened to him. Sad but look at it again. Your compassion is admirable but he did not deserve it as cleanly as you expressed it.

      yeah, when I saw this video I felt real bad for the guy, one minute thinking about his family and what not, and the next, the side of a car flying at him! But you actually cried when you saw this? Stuff like this happens all the time, have you watched to news . . . ever! I mean, the video stayed in my mind for awhile but wow, you must be really, REALLY sensitive. By the way, how do you know he actually lived?

      Maybe this guy was headed to committ a crime, or pick up a 12 yr old girl for sex, or even walking home after a murder. You don't know. While it is nice to give this persons life meaning, it may or may not be entirely accurate. I am just wondering if you posted those comments to inlicit a good vote.

      people die every day, and in much more horrible ways then this. not sayin this guy deserved it but think about the thousands or millions of people that die every single day. this sort of thing happens to too many people too many times a day to give all of our sorrow to this one man.

    • When you have to die you will

      See this is a prime example of when you have to die. When you have to die a car will pop out of nowhere and hit you. A boing 747 will hit your work place and kill you. A earthquake will happen and drop a 5 story house on top of you. God wants you died he will kill you.

    • At least

      He barely got a chance to know what hit him. His passing was probably very quick and you could almost say he had an easy exit from life. I mean, that might be a better way to go than a long, drawn out battle against lung cancer or something similarly devastating. Still, I feel for his family - if he did leave one behind.

    • thats all good

      no-one wants to see an innocent padestrian hurt this way.... BUT, was he completely innocent? Correct me if I'm wrong... but he was crossing a red light, wasnt he? The car that hit him had right of way and he shouldnt have been walking there. ALL traffic moving the same direction as he was had stopped and so should have he.

    • Incorrect.

      I analyze traffic and accidents way too much, and no it isn't my job, but I will tell you that it isn't what it appears to be. The light was still green, and the car on the left was making a left turn, and it did not have a protected turn arrow, so it had to wait until the cars passed, but the cars didn't, so it sat at the light light a good, decent driver should. However, the PT Cruiser guy thought he could run the light in enough time, but the guy coming from the right was speeding and could tell that the cars were slowing down. He saw this and realized the light would turn green shortly. I do this sometimes, cruise through an intersection if I know the other cars are about to have a red light [but only if all lanes are occupied and I see that everyone is slowing down]. I know this is a dangerous practice, but the speed that this guy went through the intersection was way too fast. Both of these cars were in the right. He was almost finished crossing by the time the light turned green, hence giving the illusion that he was crossing on red, so it's not his fault.

      Furthermore, I don't know if you know this, but you are supposed to give pedestrians the right of way, 100% of the time, even if where they are crossing may not be legal. You MUST yield to any persons attempting to cross any street, parking lot, or intersection. That doesn't mean we can walk along the highway, or around areas where crossing is prohibited [as indicated by common sense- highways, or laws-signs with a NO CROSSING guy with a red circle over it].

      Regardless, the blame should be on both cars, for not appropriately yielding the way most impatient drivers do. Food for thought...

      I didn't really notice before but it almost seems like the other car slowed the guy down, and he might have gotten smoked regardless. He seemed a bit spaced out.

      Posting a bit late as I am new to the site, but yes, he did live, and with minor injuries. What saved him was the huge dent in the door of the vehicle that bowled him over. (Watch the video carefully and you will see what I mean.) His body fit, as the rescuers at the scene reported, 'perfectly' into the smashed in door of the vehicle., and sort of 'rolled with the blow'.

      He may have been lucky, it might have been fate, but point is, he lived.~nods~

  • READ FACTS ABOUT THIS ACCIDENT

    http://www.snopes.com/photos/accident/carcrash01.asp

    The accident seen in the video occurred at 12:40 p.m. on 23 May 2004 at the intersection of Third Street and Accident Edwin C. Moses Boulevard in Dayton, Ohio. Betty J. Hayslip, 75, of New Lebanon, driving a PT Cruiser, ran a red light and struck a Subaru driven by Albertina L. Walker, 41, of Dayton. The collision caused the Subaru to roll over one and a half times; it came to rest upside-down and in the process crashed into pedestrian Scott Tegtmeyer, 42, of Dayton.

    the funny part is that the fking driver knew he/she was going to pass the red light but did he/she stop to think before he/she did that he/she would crash or somethig would go wrong???? funniest part of all he/she hit a car and triwled once not to major compared to what he/she did to the car he/she crashed into and the guy he/she almost killed!! i hope the driver thinks about that day for the rest of his/her life and that it would scar him/her for the rest if his/her life

I love when people have no clue what they are talking about. Don't you think if it is possible to create a fake video like this that it would be possible to take a real one and remove the pedestrian. Go to Snopes.com and do a little research!!! Call Dayton police, you deserve to really know the truth. I guess the good news for you is you are not a liar, just ignorant!

    • real story

      DAYTON | Doctors revived a man Sunday just hours after medics pronounced him dead on the scene of a car crash, police officials said.

      Dayton Police Sgt. Charles Hurley said Scott Tegtmeyer was walking in the intersection of Third Street and Edwin C. Moses Boulevard at 12:40 p.m. when a Chrysler PT Cruiser ran a red light, struck a Subaru sports utility vehicle and sent it into the air.

      The Subaru landed upside down on Tegtmeyer and dragged him several feet across the intersection, Hurley said. Tegtmeyer, bloodied and surrounded by shattered glass, was pronounced dead on the scene, but he suddenly started breathing while in transit with paramedics. By 3 p.m., doctors had fully resuscitated him.

      On Sunday evening, he was in the Miami Valley Hospital Intensive Care Unit.

      Neither of the female drivers of the vehicles involved were carrying passengers. The woman driving the Subaru was transported to Miami Valley Hospital. Information on the condition of the driver of the PT Cruiser was not available. Hurley said police talked to eight witnesses. He also said it is possible a camera mounted high above the intersection captured the crash.

      Dayton police recons tructionists, trained at putting clues together after crashes, were on the scene with digital cameras and measuring devices. The flipped Subaru showed noticeable crash damage on the left body panel. Ten yards away, the customized P.T. Cruiser with a "AAA" sticker on the back of its tinted windows showed damage to its front end.

      • He Lived

        Investigators said that at the time of the accident the crosswalk signal was red, and therefore Tegtmeyer should not have been crossing the street. They also reported that Tegtmeyer miraculously escaped alive because the dent in the side of the Subaru caused by the crash created a hollow space that allowed the vehicle to roll over him without crushing him to death. Neither vehicle was carrying any passengers, and both drivers escaped with only minor injuries.

                  While I admire your warm loving approach to this issue you need to take a second look at the innocent pedestrian. If the light is red for the car that ran the light, then it is red for the pedestrian. He is not an innocent victim, he is a jay walker with his head up his bottom. He had a choice to violate the law and walk like an idiot into the intersection against a red light. Now watch the video closer and you will see that the SUV showed no signs of seeing the jay walking idiot and was on a collision course to kill him when she was knocked aside by the redlight runner. So in reality, the jaywalking idiot set himself up to die and was saved by an accident.
