What's with the 2 second videos? Hope that dude recovers well. Also, poor Fiesta.
They ran because they're not safety pros, which races have. Broken necks can be worsened and cracked ribs can puncture lungs.
Description: The Fiesta, lying in the middle of the 50-foot gap, leaked fluids and caught fire shortly after the crash. He won't participate in the race set for later today, however he can take solace in know...

That had to hurt!
i watched that happen
maybe standing here wasn't such a good idea... hahahaha
That's true, and I agree they'll make this newer style of motorsport safer. It is really fun to watch.
random religon hating ok?
DON'T thank God? I love how one of the guys simply sees the crash and simply begins to walk away as the video ends.
dont thnk god for their saftey equiment thank the people that made it and invented it and spent alot of time building it
It stinks someone had to go to the hospital for them to realize you shouldn't have that gap. The tabletop they used later didn't change the race at all. Rallycross is still young, I hope it still continues to refine itself
I was like "Okay, this looks cool.." Then I was like "SHIIIIIIIITTT!!"
@Luis, I know someone with the exact same name as you..
@dom yea but that can be said about anything with a fuel tank from ur daily driver to a f1 car they all have the potential to explode but I do agree that the jumps are a little unecessarily dangerous but it is the xgames
The RallyCross is pretty cool in the Xgames and all, but I can see someone being killed by the stunts. These aren't BMX bikes, they're 2000 lb cars with potentially explosive fluids.
brutal crash glad he's ok
Yea, all they'd really be doing if they ran in and tried to help was get in the way
Yeah, the best thing to do in this situation is to get away from the wreck and let the safety professionals do their job. You don't wanna be close if the car catches on fire, which it did
The reason they "run" away is they are photographers, there are safety professionals right there ready on case that happens. In that situation you stay clear if your not part of the clean up crew... Er... Safety guys.
@Michael there is a longer video from a different POV and it shows the car catching on fire and the fire crew putting it out
@aaron, when I first saw your picture I thought it was Rebecca Black. And holy shit titties, I'm glad he is okay but wish the video was longer.
Nice to see everyone rushing to help...
Damn..missed it by that much! | |
They made it a table top for the races
That's the risk they take! Thank god for all the safety equipment and requirements.
