***Text Box Error UPDATE*** Folks- we were able to fix the underlying issue with the missing text box on the forum. Everything should be back to normal. - Honcho

Crazy blind crest. Wonder howw that airbag felt upside the face?
inertia. sucks for his dad.
Love the slow-motion "NOOOOO!" at the end.:biggrin:
I agree. Another interesting fact is that he has virtually no steering correction going into the corner.

I think he went airborne, would it have mattered?
thats what i noticed too. he practically drove straight into the corner.
pretty moronic but sadly common.

I wonder what his momentary thought was, seeing that main rock that ended up in his way! 
Yeah he was going way too fast for that type of terrarin. Alot of quick elevation changes with quick consecutive turns is not a good type of road to be drivign without caution. I can understand pushing it "IF" he knew the road very well but as we can all see he didn't. Luckily he didn't get hurt badily so he could learn from his mistake.

I noticed his reaction (NONE) at that final turn. Watched his steering wheel, head motion etc. His seating position seemed odd also.
A Go Pro in the hands of a No Pro!
^^^^^ :biggrin:
I don't think anyone has to worry. Pretty sure Daddy bought his moron son another M3 right after this incident.
I used to see kids with brand new EVOs do the same sort of stuff. Buy it, mod it, stack it and repeat.

He's lucky he didn't nominate himself for a Darwin Award.
Makes me wonder how many nominations are captured on video.

ZERO reaction. Great video
It looks like he has a phone book behind his back. Maybe the pedals are too far away.:smile:

pretty cool the go pro stayed on the entire time
yes you can pull dents out of your car with that suction cup mount that you can get with the gopro..... its written on their site! lol
And yea it looks like the car was airborne for a second or two ....bouncing on the corners. Ouch... hopefully the insurance co wont see the vid and will cover the accident....... for his own sake!
What if there was another car coming when he did that? He didn't even brake when he was approaching that corner...... friggen moron.
Lucky he's not dead....
Would love to see what the front of the car looks like... kinda curious what sort of damage a rock like that does. :smile:

Agreed!
When I was his age, if I had access to an M3, I'm certain I would have done something very similar, ended-up in jail or the morgue.
IMHO - the responsibility should really fall on his parents.
Some people who know him on bimmerforums said his parents replaced it with a Cobra.
Par for the course.

Reminds me of this.... he's extremely lucky he didn't roll it and fly out the window or hurt anyone.
