Do you think you're fit enough to survive an accident like Annemiak Van Leuten's Olympic cycling accident?

According to an Emergency Orthopaedic surgeon from Upstate,NY, an impact like Van Leuten suffered would have instantly killed an average person.  Only someone who had built up incredible core strength from  years of athletic training could survive a crash like that.

    That was so scary even to watch.
