Info From Licensor: "I drove by an old man and noticed he was struggling to get into his Buick. I didn't make much of it and got to a nearby parking lot to meet with a friend. About 5 minutes later, screeching tires got our attention and we saw a car accelerating at full speed while going over the median into incoming traffic. The car miraculously missed everyone, hit a small rock wall and went airborne. It jumped approximately 15 feet in the air, hit a house and finally landed perfectly on 2 parked BMWs. I immediately took out my cellphone and started recording the scene. Upon getting next to the car to see if the driver was OK, I realized it was the same old man I saw earlier having trouble getting into his car. It was later determined that the 84 y.o. man was having a seizure behind the wheel." - Jean-François Vermette
