Hyundai Elantra split in two after a head-on collision in Korea

A crash in Korea, in which one of the vehicles involved has split in two, has been caught on video.

I can assure you I’ve seen all kinds of accidents, but none like this one, having access to crowds of videos every day, mixed in with the news feeds. But here we won’t just be watching a dreadful accident; one of the vehicles has split in two as well.

The collision happened on a Korean road, when a Hyundai Sonata crossed into the oncoming lane and crashed head-on into two vehicles, one of them a Kia Sportage, the other a minibus. The force of the impact split the Hyundai in two, and the driver lost their life.

I’ve watched the video several times, even fearing it might be a fake, but it’s hard to know how much force is needed to cut a car in two with a single impact. Truly impressive.

    Me apuesto unas cervezas a que el coche que se parte en dos es debido a que en su momento fue cortado en dos, algo similar a la importacion de vehiculos hacia paises del este para ahorrar en impuestos.

    El corte es muy limpio y no responde a rotura de soldadura y a por ejemplo cuando se choca contra un arbol.

    Un saludo.
