The impact was so terrific the car bounced back onto the highway. The motor was shoved under the floorboards and the wheels were ripped apart. Hardin was shoved into the windshield. His face and skull were mashed. The men were en route home after a business trip to Brazil. There were no witnesses to the crash, which occurred during a rainstorm.
