I'm concerned you don't understand what happens when a moving, 5,000 lb vehicle strikes a human of any age, laying down or standing up...

That has nothing to do with the conversation. It’s clearly about seeing over the hood, which is a very common complaint about many American style SUVs and trucks. In this case your point is even more irrelevant, because low to the ground cars have higher survival rates since the average human goes over the vehicle rather than under it.
