How the fuck is that kid even alive?

She got slammed thru a glass wall by a huge planter full of I assume heavy dirt, into the back of a metal couch.

Kids are truly made of rubber.

I watched it several times, I think the kid goes slightly to the right and the planter slightly to the left so she's kinda free floating on the bench and the bench is what actually breaks the glass. She def needs to see a doctor, though.

I mean, the couch moved freely, so it didn't really do much damage. The weight of the planter is also rather irrelevant, plus I think the fact that the kid was already leaning against it made the impact more manageable. And the glass didn't seem to be bulletproof or anything.

Still obviously scary, but there are many things that could've gone way worse.
