Those big cars may "look" safe but they're not. In minor fender benders they'll hold up better but a new car(minor parking lot stuff) but in higher speed stuff the proof is in videos like that. The materials used in those older cars just don't disperse the energy like the new cars. There's A LOT of technology, science and R&D that goes into these cars. It's amazing how you can see the energy being dispersed away from the driver's cabin when those videos are shown in slow motion.
