Video captures man ejected through the windscreen of his lorry

In the early days of seatbelts in cars, some pressure groups claimed it was safer not to wear one – with the theory being that in the event of a collision, you'd be thrown clear of the danger.

That theory has of course been very thoroughly debunked, but it seems to hold true in this video, which captured a lorry driver dangling from his cab, having been thrown through his windscreen after a crash.
