Remember the ugly scene last week at the Tour de Suisse, when CSC's Frank Schleck over-cooked a corner, slammed into the guardrail, flipped his body over it, while he bike came to a rest in the road? If not, you can see it here.

That spot along the Swiss roadside looks even scarier when you see it up-close. Lugano resident Francesco De Vittori (www.frenk.com) shot these photos of the crash scene, and agreed to share them with us here on CycleTo.

How Schleck managed to survive the fall, let alone mount a new bike and finish the stage, is amazing. Take a look at the photos for yourself.

In the words of Francesco, "Believe me the guy was lucky. He landed on leafs just a meter and a half under the road, below that there are maybe 20-30 meters of almost vertical drop."
