Seat belts and air bags will have helped her survive.
I hope she is up and about now.

It says she fell 80 feet but some papers are saying between 100 and 120 feet.
Either way, even thought the details are sketchy, she has had a miraculous escape.

I reckon she will relive the nightmare for a long time.

It was a particularly bad incident and she was obviously injured but I have heard nothing since.
I hope she fully recovers.

If anyone hasn't seen those cliffs near Marsden Grotto its really, really frighting to think someone can survive any sort of fall from them.
I hope the driver makes a full recovery.
