一个播客梦见他的新节目可能成为smash hit — but not this way.
Nathan Reeves was wrapping up his interview with friend Alexsey Reyes for his newpodcastwhen near disaster struck. As the two recorded in a local cafe, a speeding SUV swerved off the road and into a glass window right behind them.
The two were filming the series for Reeves'sYouTube channel, so all the action was capturedon video.

Miraculously, no one was hurt in the dramatic incident.
"It was complete shock at first," Reeves told the websiteJalopnick. "After making sure everyone was okay, and no one was died, we were like, 'Oh my God. I can't believe we have this on film."

Lucky to be alive
Reeves is still piecing together the events of that day. The two had positioned themselves by a window at Houston café Tout Suite overlooking the street. "It got so quiet in here," Reeves said to Reyes in what can ominously be described as the calm before the storm.
Seconds later, a black Chevy Tahoe appears in the frame careening straight toward them, shattering the glass — and their nerves.
What caused the accident?
Houston police have yet to say, but Reeves offered his perspective.
"I'm pretty sure the black SUV ran a red light and was sideswiped and then went straight into us," he said.
Immediately after the crash, Reyes and Roy can be seen gathering themselves. The two seem more concerned initially with the podcast than their own lives. "I think we're fine. I think we got all the audio on there," Reyes says.
The two told Jalopnik that, at first, they didn't feel anything except the adrenaline coursing through their bodies. But a few days later, they both had stiffness in their backs and were going to see a doctor. "We're just glad no one actually died," Reyes said.
Asked about making the video public, the two conceded they couldn't pass up an excellent opportunity for publicity. The video was posted on YouTube and has gone viral.
"We decided we would just make the best out of a really bad situation," Reyes said.
