Lighten up a little- I was making fun of this very fact- I read at least 3 posts here about 'the crash' and saw that the movie had made its way through BMW forums and even forums in Taiwan! If you hadn't guessed, my photo is a farce, made in jest over the interest in this crash footage and was not intended to embarass the driver. If anything it may take attention away from the real photos and video or at least make some people smile.

If it were truly "nothing", then there would NOY have been an S2000 upside down in that ravine that day, and there would not ave been a near-death experience that day for the driver and passenger of that car.

they are also critical because it was so clearly driver inexperience that led to the unfortunate incident.
Until the facts are known, this is little more than mere speculation. You can make whatever assumptions you want from the video, but that "may" not tell the whole story...

i can't believe people (on this and other threads) are lecturing as if they were experts on the crash from viewing a short few-second video. AND all the people jumping to conclusions about driver inexperience, idiocy and other name calling. of all the rights people have, one of the best is to GET A LIFE!!

that being said, yes, the info is out on the internet and can't be stopped. yes, you have the right to analyze, but without driver particupation, you would be speculating.

whoever posted it in the first place was probably looking for some infamy. i for one am upset that so many people are so quick to jump into a discussion and criticize and speculate about someone they might know and respect, just because, for now, they're anonymous to most. i guess i just expected better from fellow board members.

remember, 99.99% of us will get into accidents. some where we're at fault, others when we're not. humans err. don't judge.

the only way to solve this problem i guess is for the owner of the car to speak up.
who is the OWNER of this car?

This says it all. So how about the facts? It certainly would be educational for all. Pick up the USPA's (united states parachute association) monthly magazine and you will find a section titled "Accident Reports."
