In Pics: Here Is What A Human Body Should Be Like To Survive A Car Crash
Ever wondered how our bodies would look like if designed to survive a car crash? Globally, annual deaths from accidents number at 1.25 million, while 20 to 50 million people suffer from non-fatal injuries. According to the SaveLIFE foundation, around 1,304,345 people in India have been killed in preventable road crashes and around 5,085,691 people have been seriously injured or disabled in road crashes in the last ten years.
