As predicted, he ran out of talent.

whoever predicted that, was wrong.

He was a passenger at the time sadly and not the drive. So he did not "run out of talent"

One thing the guy obviously had, was talent. A blatent disregard for others safety and the law is another, but he was obviously talented. No doubt he died as his friend at the wheel tried to be as good as him, and found out by way of a tree that he wasn't.

Trees are about the worst thing you can hit, the just dont budge.

Trees = Painful.

The world is a better place without him, no regard for the safety of others and it's a matter of time before he killed someone innocent.

I WOULD NOT like to be the passenger in THAT.

I actually sucked my balls up into my stomach watching that!

Janesy B · 24 Jun 2013 at 21:50

You just watched someone die in that.

It's a Euro rally isn't it? Driver on the left? IDK, I'd rather be the tree in that scenario :eek:

That tree didn't even flintch!

Irrelevant. There will be two occupants, one driver and one navigator.
Whoever is on the left probably died. That is THE worst place to get hit.

Reminds me of the SLK wrapped round a tree on wreckedexotics. Trees must be pretty tough, they never seem particularly damaged!

A good strong wind will exert hundreds of tons of force on a tree. A car crash is nothing.

what actually happened as the videos have been removed?

I take it he was street racing/drifting and didn't see a tree?

mccarf · 25 Jun 2013 at 20:14

Watched one of his videos briefly, it's a good thing he died before someone else got caught out by his "skills"

I don't think there was actually a death video, just some pics showing a mangled M5 bearing the registration plate of the car in the following video:

Apparently he was not driving at the time, but you can take a fair guess as to how it happened.

first time I have seen that video. What a pri**.

Your typical 1.5t car crash at 50mph will exert in the region of 740t on whatever it hits

(60mph brings it up to well over a thousand tons)

At its base! It would be interesting to know what force your average sized tree in full leaf has to withstand from the wind.

not the brightest of people to do that stuff in public.......too many variables and no safety gear = numpty

oh wow... just had a flick through that vid quickly.... what a pillock! first bit I skip to around 4 mins and he's drifting between traffic, speeding into oncoming traffic and cutting people up to get back in....don't really care how "good" he is.. the fact that he's endangering everyone in the surrounding area is retarded, even if indirectly. anyone of those cars could have panicked and swerved as to be honest looked like he was going to hit a few which could have left them ramming another user or pedestrian. I mean you see loads of saudi vids of them drifting, still not the best idea but at least it's on much wider roads and less traffic.

What an idiot.

Seriously, why not just go to a track?

:EDIT: Watching more of these can't understand how he thought he has the right to put other peoples lives in his hands. I know you shouldn't speak ill of the dead but good riddance.

miniyazz · 26 Jun 2013 at 11:39

Wow, what a douche. The YouTube comments are, as usual, made of fail.

Agreed.

People shouldn't be regarded as "good" just because they are dead. There's a slew of evidence that his driving was deadly and entirely reckless. The roads are safer without him.
