Default Buck hit by car today

I was on my way home this morning from the 3rd shift about 8:45 and I see 2 deer out in the field and kind of watching them.
Then all of a sudden this deer comes hawling butt about 50 yards across the road in front of me and nails this small
little car and bounces right off. He flips about 20 feet in the air and does 3 summer sults bounces off the ground
and lays to rest. In all my years I have never seen anything like this or even a vehicle hitting a deer.
The car had some damage but not as much you would think though. This buck had to weigh around 180-190lbs
and just to see it flying through the air was incredible but sad also. I watched him take his last breath
and then had to move on. I cant imagine if he came the opposite way and I was next to that car he would
of went right through my drivers side window and off my noggin and the ceiling in my truck.
Just makes you think a bit. Anyone ever witness a deer/car collision?
