With the body twisted like that he's lucky to be able to open the door. Maybe he's still in there laying on the floor in the foetal position, crying.

I've seen you tube videos of Model T's being abused on rough roads, deep snow, going down loose dirt declines, crossing streams, etc. They were saying they can take the punishment because there were few paved roads back in the day and the cars were designed for such. I think I remember watching a documentary years ago with Henry and his buddy, Firestone driving 4 wheel drive modified model T's or model A's in the backcountry. I would never attempt any of this with my model T.
