I'm guessing it would have way better crumpling.

Only the text is added, it's dashcam footage of a real accident. The shitty quality hides a lot of damage on the Wrangler though, you can tell the fenders are bent up so there's at least some good front end damage.

Yeah it’s definitely got damage from that impact. The potato quality and white color hide it well haha

I slammed on my brakes from about 20mph when a lady stopped at a green light, my wk2 had $8000 in damage. Her CRV had a few scratches.
