The windshield held up very well. The car was totaled out but was in near perfect condition so I bought it back and replaced the windshield and now my daughter is learning to drive with it.
@@hoovershayla a couple of weeks ago we had a cell of hail just about 2km big. It hailed for about 15 minutes. Had to plow away over 10cm of hail on the ground afterwords😱 Wondering how the car looks from outside!
Welcome to the new world of Geoengineering brought to you proudly by your local nexrad system lmao its just getting started just wait they messed up and cant un do this thing
You held it together alot better than I would. Id of frickin lost my mind. My truck is the only thing that makes me happy. AND of course you had a full tank of gas🤣
Most realistic reaction to hail completely destroying your car outta nowhere 😅 hence the reason I always pull over if the rain is coming down hard enough to block the view only a few feet ahead. Better to have hail hitting the car while it’s idle than adding even more speed of impact by continuing to drive.
Also, little tip for anyone that gets stuck in the middle of a hail storm, if you wanna keep your front and rear windshield as intact as possible then make sure to keep a thick blanket or something in the car so that you can quickly cover the windshields to save them from any major damage. That way you’re able to drive off after the storm has passed instead of having to call for a tow. 🥲 For me personally I keep a snow shield cover and a sun shield mat to stack on top of each other, sun mat goes underneath the snow cover since the snow cover has extra length on the ends to close the doors on it to keep it in place! Hopefully that made sense, I’m not entirely sure what the two shield things are called but I’m sure y’all get the picture lol.
In case this happens again, maybe buy a heavy duty, fitted car shade for the front & rear windshields. They'll hopefully prevent glass shards from getting everywhere once deployed. I think there are two main manufacturers of them - Coverquest and Weathertech.
Hey Jack are you alright!? That is the biggest hail I have ever seen on video and I have never seen anything even close to that big with my own eyes! Post a video of the car please. Hope you are alright love ya!
@@hoovershayla Hagerman yes. Dexter gets lots of clouds, but not much rain. Except for last week when they got their annual rain fall in one 24 hr period ...🙃
Glad I moved to Colorado from NM back on '10. Cause damn those storms can get insane, rather have a snowstorm than hailstorm, don't get them often as NM then never this bad
Guys if you get caught up just park out of the lane if possible and shield yourself with anything you got in the car by coverring the windshield hanging it over the rear view mirror and securing its sides anyhow possible like using side windshields, if nothing was available then hanging any clothing you got on will work just fine.. you just need to protect yourself from shattered glass
Hey that was an awesome hail storm gorilla hail..now I understand some don't like the bad words but instead of leaving a negative comment just leave.. u don't have to watch as a storm chaser myself until you have been In a situation as this it's not the same I've heard guys that never curse until they ran into this ..don't Hate on the guy turn the volume down or move on simple!!!
"Well... this has been a great car." Sadly, even if relatively low milage, with all the body and glass damage done by that hail, you're looking at a repair bill easily worth more than that 9th gen Impala. Even if old, having a perfectly good car ruined by a hail storm is a lousy reason for having to buy a new car. Back in 2009, I had a 2008 Acura TL (less than a year old) and it got caught in a pretty big hail storm (though nothing like this video), the total damage was over 12 grand, though it didn't get totaled-out because it was only a year old and worth considerably more. Hail storms suck.
That sucks! I had friend back in Phoenix back 2010 that had her new Kia less than a month old that had her car totaled out too. The car in the video I still drive to work almost everyday especially when there’s a chance of storms. I bought it for $3500. Back on 2017 and my insurance gave me $4000.00 for it less my deductible and bought it back for 1,090.00 from them.
@@hoovershayla Ha! That's great that the car is still rolling. I'm assuming you fixed the glass work, but it's still kinda dimpled like a golf ball? On my Acura, the body work to get rid of all the dents was at least 70% of the cost.
@@hoovershayla Didn't know you could do that. This was like a 3,000 Dollar check then for you. Sucks though to have a dented car, is it really noticeable?
You got to think about the resistance though, two large objects colliding with each other at high speed. Seems like it would completely shatter the windshield and then he'd be completely exposed.
Close. South eastern New Mexico. I just use this car for driving to work. It’s 100 miles round trip and we get weather like this frequently so it doesn’t hurt that bad. Insurance totaled it out so I just bought it back and replaced the windshield. Car still drives great and I get a lot of comments when I gas it up.
As the video shows with the bloke keeping the windscreen wipers going it is stopping the hailstones from building up and causing even more damage to the glass
That's why you drive a beat up car in Denver. If it's not hail it's some fool running into your car or some idiot breaking into it. Denver is a meat grinder for vehicles.
Just image a person comes out of his car to see what exaclty happened. And a ice cube with hard as rock directly from sky fell on person head..... the conclusion serious injury, coma or death!!! Never ever come out during hail storm. 😱😱😱
Car insurance adjuster states, “You should have stopped sooner. You will have to cover your own repairs”. Owner states, “What do I pay you for”? Then a radio commercial comes on: “I just saved a ton of money by switching to GEICO”. 🤦♂️
If that were to happen to me if I drove I’ll pulled over hope in the backseat like what you did to protect yours from glass that was a smart thinking glad you are safe and sound
If you listen closely you can hear the driver mutter a few cuss words in the background….My Subaru Outback’s windshield would be completely gone. It’s thin as Saran Wrap….
Ce forță teribilă mai acționau ștergătoarele?datorita lor nu a fost distrus în totalitate parbrizul?...și apoi,după potopul de grindină...cum s.a mI putut circula...?nici un vehicul nu are gram securizat?sau nici acesta nu rezista la ,,gloanțele,,de grindină...??
I don’t get why you’d be speeding through that kind of hail storm to begin with? You should’ve pulled over the minute your windshield first cracked. If it blew out while you were driving you could’ve seriously injured someone else. You can be reckless all you want, but the minute it puts others at risk you cross the line
You want to drive fast to hopefully get out of the hail. Hail usually covers small areas. Worse case scenario you cant make it and have to slow down, anyway. But at least you can try. Automatically stoping is dooming your car to the max extent.
He was taking a calculated risk to get the hell out of the storm before it intensified any further. It didn't work out, but the vehicle is no more damaged now than if he didn't try.
After that night I got off work from my old job I stopped driving in the rain. It was a bad storm I got caught in and had to pull on the side of the road. I do not like summer time. I hate thunderstorms I fear them because of tornados. This is really scary!

This has gotta be the best live commentary I’ve ever heard for being in the middle of a massive hail storm. I’m glad you’re ok.
A curse word for each hailstone impact, nice!! 👍
That was really annoying
I think you would be too if your entire windshield was getting obliterated slowly while ur driving
Yes a punishment from the universe.
i wouldn't be terrified i'd be worrying and getting angry about how much work i'm gonna have to put into the car
i think we should try to say sorry for our sins and try to be good in future
Mother Nature can be a BEAST!! I'm glad you weren't injured. Sorry about your car.
Let’s just say it’s not something I want to do again:)
Damn you enjoyed
Rainstorm and hailstorm
Guess chevy didn't win the JD power award for hail-proof windows
"Were calling you about your cars extended warranty" 🤣 sorry man, you know I had too
That's some strong hail going along the even stronger language
Those wipers deserve a raise.
Law of physics, raindrops/hail hits the hardest when you are moving towards it.
& Turn off that wiper on broken windshield, it’s dangerous. Tc
The only smart one here
@@Zacdahwac agreed
Could you explain to me what can happen if you leave wipers on with a broken windshield? Just curious to know all the cons to this
I was thinking about the wiper too but I thought it wouldnt be good if the water came through the cracks either
take into consideration he was just trying to get out of the storm as fast as possible
This should be an ad for the Chevrolet car company
Aww Sh**t, Mother 😂😂😂😂 I feel bad for the guy but that was funny
You held it together alot better than I would. Id of frickin lost my mind. My truck is the only thing that makes me happy. AND of course you had a full tank of gas🤣

That’s what I’m saying, I started laughing my ass off when he wouldn’t stop cussin🤣
@@StrongBodySecrets8 I happen to find that absolutely hilarious too but to think hail(lumps of ice) could do so much damage is unbeliveable
@@stephensnell5707 yeah it’s brutal
@@StrongBodySecrets8 you will agree that once hailstones exceed 3 inches or bigger it can end up smashing glass to pieces
The windshield usually has a double structure, but nature is scary if it breaks with hail.

Hi, that's dangerous.
Incredible footage. I’m surprised the side windows didn’t blow out
Right, because it hails from the side and not from above
@@youngeshmoney wind-driven hail typically falls at an angle so yeah it’s surprising indeed. Glad nobody got hurt
@@youngeshmoney 😂
Me too. That hail was huge.
In case this happens again, maybe buy a heavy duty, fitted car shade for the front & rear windshields. They'll hopefully prevent glass shards from getting everywhere once deployed.

Maybe a bulletproof car
Believe me, I understand the frustration, anger, and expletives! Hail can destroy your vehicle! And, windshield replacements aren't cheap!
Hey Jack are you alright!? That is the biggest hail I have ever seen on video and I have never seen anything even close to that big with my own eyes! Post a video of the car please. Hope you are alright love ya!
The windscreen wipers really helped with visibility
That windshield has got a lot of crack from the hail of the rain that I've ever seen!
Looks live every ball of hail had your name on it.
That man was so calm and relax he didn't even curse
Uh
XD
You need to stop driving when the hailstorm hits.
That will only help if you are not in open space
Good old New Mexico weather. My family lives in Dexter.
I’ve only lived in the area for a short time and seems that the Dexter, Hagerman area gets hammered a lot!

This exactly why I carry an xl flatten box that could cover my windshield from hail and snow ❄️

Cel mai tare
Best way to avoid hail damage is install a roll cage on the outside of your car then install a hydraulic arm to roll the car over upside down
Then the drivetrain and undercarriage will be fucked up, and thats not good.
Needed to read this! You are an intelligent person yo!
This reminds me of the reason why I will never buy another sunroof..
Windshield: hail storm you can crack me but cant break me.
I kept driving at least 20km/h. I trust the rain and hail caught up to him, I'd let the smallest hail hit than a combo. Speaking from experience btw.
You got to think about the resistance though, two large objects colliding with each other at high speed. Seems like it would completely shatter the windshield and then he'd be completely exposed.
That is INSANE

As the video shows with the bloke keeping the windscreen wipers going it is stopping the hailstones from building up and causing even more damage to the glass
I remembered that I have to pay my insurance
Man that's f***** up. Hope your insurance cover that. Hey you got health that's all that matter.

That's why you drive a beat up car in Denver. If it's not hail it's some fool running into your car or some idiot breaking into it. Denver is a meat grinder for vehicles.
Wonder if stopping and pulling over would have helped prevent the windshield breaking like that?
No, but it would keep you from being a moron that drives into the hail core.
car engine: WTF IS GOING OUT THERE?!!
Very odd how the tempered glass on the doors didnt implode, but the windshield was taken effortlessly
Well the windshield is on way more vulnerable angle to a hailstorm than the door windows.
People who owns expensive cars gonna cry

Blimey that is just absolutely crazy hail,sounds like it is larger than 5 inches
wow - there is allready a crack in your windscreen - great soundscape
your window has a scratch on it...
Holy crap!
wipers going left and right hahahhahah that would help!
A couple curve balls from god and mother nature lol!

whats the best course of action to reduce damage? keep driving? slow down? or pull over?
Not too sure.
😎
Safest is to just pull off and ride it out. Forget the car, you are trying to survive the storm.
If I lived in an area where that happened, I would fix the glass but not the body damage. Supercell chic.
Wonder why you stopped. Didn’t make any sense to me to even stop earlier.
