Big deal, you crashed a car..... what a life changing experience.....

Abrupt throttle input is what did it, you guys werent even going that fast.
Correct. He accelerated too much too early in the turn and then oversteered. Bad driving, not bad luck.

Scary wreck even if your going slow, just a question; I have wrecked one car before (totalled) and during the accdident did everything seem to go into super slowmotion cuz it did for me? Just wondering because it is scary no matter what and I am glad you were both okay. I never push my S to its limits on the streets.

How about this: Seen people airlifted on multiple occasions, followed ambulances to hospitals from the track, seen people dye in front of me, wrecked my bike at fast speeds, was in a car that hit telphone poll as a backseat passenger.......

So, I dont get much of a tear when someone makes a sappy vid of a crash that was caused by bad driving and then everyone walked away..... What a life changing experience it was. Sorry to offend you good people.

What if we agree on this: crashing sucks.....but if everyone walks away its all good?

I wish that was the case!

Mista negative! My only point was to make everyone thing twice about messing around and be as safe as possible. Wasn't trying to glorify the wreck or anything.

Thank you for sharing the video. It gave me chills watching it. I'm glad that you both walked away from it alive.
