Wow. That poor kid. Live life to it's fullest cause you never know when a race car could be careening outa control and headed straight for ya.

so close to the barrier, why not be on the other side? Tough lesson to learn.

Ive seen that clip before, if I remember correctly the guy suffered a broken leg and a cracked vertibrae in his neck but he lived and wasnt life threatingly injured.

Well, we are quite flexible... I believe F1 drivers take an average of 200gs per impact, and it is a very safe sport...

that reminds me, anyone ever seen the video of the guy hit by a train in Hungary? I'm still shocked he made it.
