A man plunged nine stories from a high-rise in Jersey City, NJ, landed on a BMW — and miraculously survived, according to stunning photos and a witness.
The man crashed through the roof of the Beemer parked below 26 Journal Square at 10:20 a.m. Wednesday, then stood up with a broken arm and asked, “What happened?,” onlooker Christina Smith, 21, told The Post.
“I heard a big boom and I didn’t think it was a person at first,” said Smith. “The back window of the car just busted out — exploded. Then the guy jumped up and started screaming. His arm was all twisted.”

She quickly called 911, then took jaw-dropping photos and videos of the aftermath, including graphic footage of the man screaming in pain with upper-body injuries.
He was rushed to a hospital by ambulance and his condition was not immediately known Thursday.
Police are investigating the incident, including whether he jumped, fell or was pushed, according to nj.com.

The miracle isn’t that he survived. The miracle is that someone found street parking near Journal Square.
No point in buying any lotto tickets after that.
Lawsuit is imminent -- "I felt disrespected and dehumanized by her comment. Here I had just survived a very traumatic event, and she was denying me my very right of existence."
Seems like a hard way to make a sun roof.
Doesn’t look like the bimmer survived.
I feel bad for the owner of the car..I dont think GEICO covers that kind of damage
Oh good he had a mask on
LOL
Stacey Abrams is going to schedule the same stunt for Noon tomorrow as a publicity gimmick for fundraising.
After hers the junk man will say: “Well I won’t need the magnet crane or the car crusher. This pancake is ready now.”
Oh good he had a mask on
Owner: Hello this is Joe, I need you to open the attachment to the e-mail I just sent you. Don't worry about needing to verify who I am, Just open it and watch.
Agent: Wow! I'm sorry but that's not covered under your Auto policy.
Owner: Exactly what does "Comprehensive" mean?
Maybe the car owner has Farmers Insurance.

MRS. SWEEDLER
Mr. Costanza, come in, come in. It’s been a very trying couple of days around the hospital. Patients, doctors, everyone, just grief stricken over this unfortunate occurrence.
George
Well, I join them in their grief.
Mrs. Sweedler
Horrible, just a horrible thing. Flew right past the children’s wing. All the sick children, in the playroom, looking out the window, just traumatize by the incident. Apparently, they all thought he was flying. You know how children are, “Oh look. A man is flying. A man is flying” And then, splat...
George
Yes, splat. Exactly. Splat. That’s where I come in. On splat. You see, Mrs. Sweedler, or is it hospital administrator Sweedler?
Mrs. Sweedler
Mrs. Sweedler’s fine.
George
You see, that tragedy affected me in a very, very personal way.
Mrs. SWEEDLER
How is that?
George
Yes, you see, the deceased landed on my car. The splat, as it were, actually took place on the roof of my car. I can’t help but think that had it been a convertible this whole tragedy may have been averted but I’ve never been the type to buy a convertible, what with the baldness and all.
Mrs. SWEEDLER
Well I’ve known bald men who owned convertibles. They wore a hat.
George
Well then it’s all pulled down. Anyway. The damage, unfortunately, has marred an otherwise fine automobile, rendering it virtually undriveable.
Mrs. SWEEDLER
(STIFFENING) Yes, well, that is a shame.
George
Yes, a shame. That’s just how I would describe it. Now, with all due sensitivity and discretion, bearing in mind the scope of the situation, I can’t help but think the hospital bears some responsibility to compensate the other, still living “victim”, of this horrendous, horrendous tragedy.
SHE GLARES
Maybe this part of some Gender Reveal party.
Yes, BUT! Did he get the JAB?
I think the movie was better
