Flying bear kills two Canadians in freak accident
– Wed Jun 8, 11:11 am ET
OTTAWA (Reuters) – Two Canadians died instantly in a freak accident when a car hit a 440-pound (200-kg) black bear and sent the animal flying straight through the windshield of an oncoming vehicle, local media said Wednesday.
The bear's body hit the 25-year-old driver and a 40-year-old man sitting behind her and then shot out of the back window. The bear also died.
The accident happened Monday night in a rural area about 25 miles north of the federal capital Ottawa.
"We don't see (this) often, even if we live in the country. Lots of deer, but collisions with a bear and two people died? That's really rare," local police spokesman Martin Fournel told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.
Collisions between vehicles and animals are common in Canada, which has a healthy population of large wild animals such as moose and deer.

The same sort of thing happened here, but with a deer. A car hit a deer, launched it into the air and through the windshield of an on-coming car. It was a buck so the driver was impaled with antlers and shit. He was an older guy, barely survived. Then after all this, his house burned down a week before Christmas a few years ago. He's a pastor at a local church.....he must not be doing something right.

I was going around a construction area yesterday to meet a friend for dinner and a doe ran out in front of my car.

There was a lady here that got killed driving down the road and a tree fell on her car.
One second before or after and she would've been ok.

If she wasn't texting and putting on makeup she may have seen the tree.
