Land Rover, tough cars
Down from the second floor to the undeground parking level of a big commercial center in Brescia Italy. about 10 meters
In the news they mention a Range Rover but it looks more like a Discovery to me
Mother and son are not even in serious condition as initially tought

They are very lucky if they aren't seriously injured they could have been killed, that would have been a fair impact when they hit the ground. That won't polish out.

Any idea if the rear parcel shelf cover is for sale? D3 07 SE - still going strong
D3 07 HSE - gone to car heaven
FL1 - gone to Romania
D3 05 HSE - gone to a divorce diet
D1 V8 manual - gone but not forgotten
RR Classic - gone to car heaven
It must have been a fair impact as its moved the steering wheel to the other side ( I do love the old jokes )The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

If it had been a small city car they would both have been killed, so as the OP title suggests, Discovery's are fairly strong and safe vehicles!2016 Discovery 4 Commercial
2019 Discovery 5 HSE

Looks like a narrow 'gap' maybe prevented it going nose first?

One of the paramedics must have a D3. The D4 is already missing its front wings, grille, headlights, front bumper and the arches are neatly put aside!
