Which is more damaging?

Case1.: A man on roller skates moving at 30 km/hr rams into a stationary car

Case2.: A car moving at 30 km/hr with its engine switched off rams into a stationary man on roller skates.

Which case would cause more damage to the man. Case1 or case2. I do not know the answer for sure. The relative velocity is the same in both cases but not the kinetic energy. Please type your answer in comments. Thanks in advance.
