2001 crash test

I have a 99' 150 and I saw this video of a 2001 in a crash test at what I think is 40 mph
http://youtube.com/watch?v=gCIBOYxzqko
Is my truck really this unsafe?

Just avoid driving into a bridge abutment and you'll be ok.

That's where I spotted it, I didn't notice until slo-mo, to me it seems like it deployed a little late and is still inflating after the dummy has been slammed back into his seat and the truck is going backwards.

Check out the tundra crash test. http://youtube.com/watch?v=OJJSCMn7pLY&feature=related
Seems like the dummy suffered some serious internal injuries.

That looks like a REALLY rough wreck. The truck didn't seem to break away enough, to help soften the blow. Ill pass on being in a Tundra when it wrecks...
