I'd say way fast. A kid was ejected from the bed and apparently lived and was walking around and was found by hunters. I've never personally seen someone ejected who lived. Usually always a fatality.

Rich, my first thought was that the truck had been cut in two and was placed there for pics, but then I realized it was real. That's terrible.

How fast do people need to go?

They were easily doing 100 to rip the truck in half.
