    Has it been done yet?

    I wouldn’t normally post ghoulish stuff, but seeing as no one was hurt, this one is worth watching:

    Well that was close to 10 dead people. Remember spectate from the inside of the corner…

    What a monumentally stupid place to sit!

    And that girl just continues to sit there and watch!

    blimey – the person sat on the wall was very very lucky.

    How was that not a different outcome for those spectators?

    Wow. No-one was hurt, but I bet some pants were soiled!

    Again: stupid place to sit!

    Good advert for roll cages! The distance might have foreshortened the distance between the people and the car, but it might not have. Amazing no-one was injured.

    Listening to the engine noise – it sounds like either the throttle stuck or he kept it planted – can’t see an experienced driver doing the latter which would explain the accident.

    I think that she couldn’t actually see past the folks sat next to her – she just knew ‘something’ was happening…

    Sweaty palms watching that. looks like they were quite a way up from the corner…just not far enough. As kids we learned to stand on the inside just to avoid all the gravel being shotgunned in Whinlatter and Kielder.

    For those that don’t speak Italian.

    He was saying at the end, “Bit of gaffer tape mate and you’ll be good to finish the stage”.

    Proper life flashing before your eyes stuff.

    Well now – someone was smiling on those guys!

    As for the car, it seems wrong not to say “That’ll buff out”.

    In her shoes I’m not sure I would have known which way to go that would get my out of mischief in the short time I had to react.

    yep, there was a lot more space there than it looked like when the car first lost control!

    I love the way the guy on the phone just hops over the dirtbike and then continues talking. Unless he’s asking for new pants.

    To be fair, I’d either sit there in confusion or terror, or alternatively leap to my feet and run directly in front of the car.

    I imagine instinct takes hold at that point at that speed. Guilt probably followed later.

    The motorbike one reminds me of this video, he just looked like it was nothing and carried on snapping 😆

    Never ever ever ever ever sit down when watching at a rally, it takes that extra second or two you might not have to throw yourself out of the way. Cars can go off anywhere, I’ve seen cars go off on straight bits of road.

    Guy in OP’s clip needs some lessons from these guys:

    Mothercooker – that’s incredible. Couple of foot either way and that would have been so different…

    I always remember watching this thinking that…

    …about 5 mins in, but the whole thing is a fun watch.

    …and of course, Colin McRae’s X-Games rollover.

    Peta Solberg’s Hinkelstein crash was pretty damn scary. Proper “when will this end?” moment.

    I always found this one interesting. When the driver and co-driver are telling their wives they love them, they’re obviously pretty sure they’re done.

    If we are talking crazy spectators it has to be THAT Walter Rohrl video (again!).
