I was in a 50mph crash and almost bit it, but Ace Frehley (guitar player from Kiss), hit a brick wall in his car at over 100mph and he was just fine.
Your survival will depend upon the impact and your restraint. If you're thinking about 100mph straight-on into a brick wall, then no-you're not going to make it. A glancing blow or a sliding impact into the side, yes.

There are lots of 100mph accidents, and a lot of people survive them.
Sadly, most that happen on the open roads are fatal or result in very serious injury.
The ones who survive are usually race and rally drivers, who are always surrounded by very strong safety-cages, cocooned in high-impact safety seats, held in by full-harness belts and wear crash-helmets.
That is the MINIMUM survival equipment, and even then, a few die.

It really depends on the type of crash. If you're in a head on collision without a seat belt, then definitely not. If you were in an SUV and someone else with a much smaller car rammed into your back half at 100 mph and you were wearing your seat belt, then yeah you might be able to.

The only way you will survive a 100 mph crash is to be LUCKY VERY LUCKY. I work at least one crash a month where some kid thinks he's some kind of hot shot street racer and tries to prove it. Odds are against you my friend.

Unfortunately lots of people survive fast crashes - only to live the rest of their life in a wheelchair - or worse! I don't recommend it.

Depends where you get hit and what kind of car and the type of rating of safety it has. You can be hit in the side, your car will flip and you prob die. If you get a front you probably will survive. Back you will probably have neck problems or back problems.

First off. My first response is.. Don't go that fast first off, it is not worth finding out. 100 mph crash is not I would say in a high percentage of survival percentages.

Yes, I can. People do it every weekend. It's called auto racing. I really would not want to try it out on the public roads, though.
