Car hits second story of house.

 

This is just plain amazing. How could a car hit that high on a house?

BBC

Last night, a car flew from the street into the top floor of a house in Basingstoke, Hants, England and dropped back to the ground. The driver and passenger were seriously injured but are in stable condition. Police say the car hit a curb and “launched through the air.”

“It was just horrendous,” she said.

“My husband thought the dog had knocked something over downstairs but as he got to the bedroom door he could see the hole in the wall and all the furniture moved.

“That’s when we came downstairs and saw the car there.”

Update: A great comment from Mark:

“Was it by any chance a Ford Anglia? And have the neighbors noticed an unusual number of owls around lately? “
