A lucky escape!
This rally driver and his navigator had a very lucky escape in this crash.
Note how the branch speared straight between them from the rear of the car. A bit to one side or the other, and their rally might have been considerably less enjoyable!
Here's a video from spectators near the crash: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kh6MUEKJlmU
ReplyDeletelooks like it might of kissed the drivers helmet, but not sure.
ReplyDeleteWOW, they were VERY lucky, no question! Titanium tubs for the driver and co-driver are probably on their list :-)
