I guess the guy in the last clip forgot his seat belt...  He just rolls right out where the windshield used to be!

I'm wondering if that was deliberate?  Looks like in Russia, you gotta be able to bail out on a moment's notice!

Oddly enough, that's not the first Russian crash compilation where I've seen a cab-over truck driver get launched unscathed through what used to be the windshield.

Its like the Wild, Wild West over there. With so many dashcams being used, I'm sure we will see more of these compilations.
