It made seagull stew on that windshield. They had to be hauling pretty good at least. 180 might be high, but still, that would suck bad. At least it didn't break through.

I dont think it was 180 KPH or MPH
I think it was around 130 or so MPH.
he was neer the top end of 5th gear when he hit the bird.

I've had a bird hit my driver side front fender while I was doing about 140 kph (KPH PEOPLE...not mph) and it dinged off the fender with not nary a mark.
I reaaaaly have a hard time believing that video, perhaps if the bird itself was doing the same speed as the car head on, then maybe. That kinda combined kinetic energy....then maybe. I claim BS despite the footage.
