In July, a boy was left fighting for his life after a car ploughed into a trampoline before launching into the air and smashing into a barn in Germany.
The terrifying crash occurred when a Volvo SUV veered off the road, tore through two hedges and hit the child with full force.

The garden was turned into ruins, with the trampoline mangled beyond recognition and several trees downed.
