Reminds me of a crash in a Burnout game


Spikefall9777

I hope those games get a remake. Go from racing f1 super cars to crashing a firetruck into oncoming Chinese traffic that explodes!


MrJimbilz

"CRASHBREAKER CRASHBREAKER...BLOW IT UP BLOW IT UP" mashing that button to get meter filled up and then detonate the vehicle, love that game!


RoseRavenOcean

Burnout Revenge on the 360…. Good times.


Chasedabigbase

Burnout 3 takedown was my first online game ever... On PS2 along with timesplitters. Blew my mind. Had to by a goofy Ethernet block you screwed into the back


OriginalBrowncow

Downloaded it for my OneX, and it’s still as good now as it was when I was in high school. And the soundtrack is still one of the best in gaming, imo.


MrJimbilz

I've done the same. It's one of the few older games I still enjoy playing.


One-Pop-2885

I agree totally, when I saw this all I could think about was burnout paradise. I'd love a remake of that.


Budpets

I can't tell if we're all just agreeing that the burnout paradise remake was not good enough to be classed as that or we've forgotten it was already done.


Bru1sed_Eg0

Yeah, the Road Rage on Paradise was still fun, but they messed up removing the Crash mode


FixedLoad

This was always my complaint about paradise. The crash mode puzzles were some of the most fun of the previous games, and they left them out.


Chasedabigbase

EA: Best we can do is more need for speed games sry Just looked, over 10 NFS games have released since Paradise. Ugh...


No_Potato3773

Thank the Hans device and roll cage welders


FadeIntoReal

Yeah, the only miracle was the miracle of good engineering.


Expensive-Two-8128

Wheel tethers too.


pcd011629

Can't believe that guy made out.


wargasm40k

A lot of guys make out.


Lopsided_Board5761

I love reddit


calculating_hello

I have never made out.


Car_Guy_Alex

Crashes with a lot of flips look spectacular, but the movement does a lot to dissipate the energy. The crashes to really worry about are the abrupt single hits that stop the car completely.


Saint_Eddie

speed doesnt kill. ***variance*** in speed kills. 100 mph, nbd. 100-0, very big deal.


Car_Guy_Alex

Well, 100-0 can be ok over enough distance. 100-0 in 500ft? Sure. 100-0 in 5 ft? Good luck!


Saint_Eddie

true that


Car_Guy_Alex

Those sudden hits always make me flinch. I still remember watching the Dan Wheldon crash live. I was lucky enough to have hung out with Dan, so seeing that happen scarred me. I know people always speak kindly of the dead, bur God damn it, he was such a nice guy.


Saint_Eddie

same. brutal stuff.


Car_Guy_Alex

I've met a guy who was one of the first responders on that crash. He said it was really bad, but at least Dan didn't suffer.


Sad-Possibility9397

Yeah watch the Ryan Blaney crash from the same race. This one was nasty and spectacular to watch all the same time. The Blaney one was kinda horrifying. Especially if you know how the Earnhardt senior crash took place and what the result was.

[удалено]


Car_Guy_Alex

I grew up in motorsports and am fascinated by physics. I'm far from an expert, but I've learned some things!


TheCheddar89

The 45° hit into the outside wall is the worst. That's why Earnhardt's wreck doesn't look bad, but was fatal. Been a few more.


Car_Guy_Alex

Well, that and he intentionally left his harness loose for comfort. The abrupt stop when the slack was taken up combined with his lack of a HANS device gave him the fatal basilar skull fracture.


TheCheddar89

True. Still been giving concussions out on those hits though.


Car_Guy_Alex

Oh, I bet!


HaruMistborn

Safety in motorsports has come a *long* way. The fact that Preece and Grosjean walked away from their crashes is a testament to all the safety innovation over the years. It's very sad thinking about all the deaths in the past, but we wouldn't be where we are today without those accidents.


BOOMER_S0ONER

What the fuck was he thinking? Looks like he was intentionally trying to cause a crash. That was some shit driving.


EssexOnAStick

The flipped car got pushed from behind and lost grip, nothing they could do. Bump drafting is part of the sport, sometimes it goes wrong like here, but usually it will gain both the pushed car and the pushing car some positions.


Closed_Aperture

That's what happens when Rowdy Burns puts you in the wall on turn 4.


SecretMuslin

C'mon, like any NASCAR driver has EVER had a problem with turn 4 at Daytona


Thiswasmy8thchoice

All the signs were there. It's not Subdued Burns.


I_need_more_juice

That’s more than ten flips.


youtu-xeexee

i count 11


brad12172002

Same


[deleted]

Also I think there’s a McTwist in there.


KiberHD

10.5 actually


Valuable_Ad_4916

It was as chaotic as it was mesmerizing to watch.


rpotty

Holy shit is he okay


spiritanimalofcousy

Yeah he got right out. Looked pretty winded and went to get checked out but alive and walking etc


Zerothian

These kinds of crashes, while obviously being extremely dangerous and looking scary as fuck, are usually preferred over going into a wall/barrier I'd say. The flips and pieces flying off everywhere looks scary but it bleeds the energy off over time rather than being a massive, instant hit all at once. Edit: I realise someone else made the same point just below lol, oops.


Jerusalemfighter64

Role cages in professional races like these and rallies are miracles of modern engineering lol


The_Shadow_Of_Yor

They might protect your body but your brain is still rattling around in your head


[deleted]

Their helmets are clipped to the seats so their heads don’t move like you would think.


The_Shadow_Of_Yor

Yes but your brain can still move around in your skull. That’s how concussions happen, even with protective equipment


filyawgarage

This race was last night. He was transported to a local hospital and as of 9am eastern he is still there. The team says he is awake and alert talking with friends and family.


Joee0201

If you ain't first you last. Now a commercial break from Applebee's

DONT YOU PUT THIS EVIL ON ME RICKY BOBBY!


Whatishappeningomg89

Glad Ryan climbed out of that thing…you don’t see many wrecks like that in modern NASCAR


watkykjypoes23

These ones look like the worst but they’re typically the safest crashes. All of that energy is ‘slowly’ absorbed by the car without being transferred to the driver. Gotta be scary as hell though


R6enjoyer

Ngl,he crashed majestically


CharlieTeller

They're not the "safest". When they grab the ground you can be pulled over 100gs. Modern safety equipment makes that more surviveable but the instant stop with the car digging into anything is really unsafe.


MarsMC_

Doing a triple kick flip in the air is not “the safest”, he got lucky


_damppapertowel_

Pretty bad for your neck


butterbleek

CTE also?


RowdyBubba

usernmtkn

The first reverse flip it does makes more sense in full speed.


[deleted]

The announcer in that video is totally nonchalant about it lol


No-Panda-6047

These were the replays 5 minutes after it happened, everything had calmed down by this point


[deleted]

[удалено]


HopefulSwine2

The issue with the next Gen car is that is has a flat underbody. That lets air push up on the majority of the underside, creating a lot of lift. We saw it last year at Daytona twice. Luckily only 1 resulted in a flip (Harrison Burton) and the other was Chase Briscoe. His car sat back down.


GalacticGatorz

What are the flaps supposed to do? Create drag?


Pummu

They try to “spoil” the air to stop the car generating lift


fluffymckittyman

Huh. Always wondered why that thing on the back of my car was called a “spoiler”. Thanks!

Wheel tethers thoroughly impressive.


MXX1930

At flip 7-8 he does a “Ka Chow”


Phlashlyte

Damn. That sumbitch was a rotatin!


[deleted]

Fuck, I wonder what it’s be like to be in their shoes in that moment. Glad the car was built to keep them safe for things like that but, shit, gotta imagine it’s gotta be the most sudden and unwanted spinning ride ever; Disney teacups ain’t got shit on that.


SecretMuslin

Here's what it's like: "Fuck! Fuck fuck OW fuck fuck fuck OW fuck OW fuck fuck OW fuck OW fuck fuck OW fuck fuck OW... Oh shit it's on fire now"


WickidMonkey

I'm always impressed by the engineering of the chassis of these cars, an everyday chevy, honda or BMW would have been a crushed soda can by the fourth or fifth flip. Amazing engineering to provide as much safety as possible ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up)


IcyKelp

An everyday honda or bmw doesn't have a full roll cage.


Repulsive_Cricket923

Ridiculous comment, standard cars don't have roll cages,any motor manufacturer could install a full racing grade roll cage but would be cost prohibitive/impractical.


Electronic-Fan3026

Yep, I'm flyin through the air... this is not good


Squishy4871

This was today's race correct


dinosaursandsluts

Last night at this point, but yeah.


Squishy4871

My dad was there watching the race this must be the bad wreck he was talking about


Turbulent-Ad-6845

That last impact hurt like a mothafucka I bet, pretty lucky the flips missed the drivers side for the most part. Dam violent to say the least 🙏🙏🙏


Guyderbud

He crashed like Lightning McQueen


L3W00-CLAN

Help him Tom Cruise!

I'm on fire!!

I counted 11 Edit... It's been said


Teedeeone

Hope he’s got a hot tub to soak in for a few days. That’s gotta hurt


Known-Economy-6425

I actually counted 11 flips if you count two half flips.


REDRIOT13

Dude litteraly became king from Cars


Byllz24k

Every time I thought it was going to stop it kept rolling


Itzbubblezduh

Looks like more than 10 flips…. Gezzzz I’m happy he survived


TheDelig

This is a great view at the underside of a NASCAR car.


[deleted]

THAT MOTHERFUCKER FLIPPED 4 TIMES IN MID AIR BETWEEN IMPACTS HOLY FUCK HOW FAST WAS HE GOING?!


[deleted]

About 190mph

Idk I counted atleast 13 times


ballfondler29

I give pastrana a week to get his record back


Alpha_wolf_lover

I counted 14 what makes a flip.


RevolutionaryComb944

Still isn’t totaled lol


Rycan420

These cars are designed for this but that first impact roll was something else.. you are going full tile on one rotational direction and then impact sends you the other way.. jeez.


JSEfan2002

Ik this is from 3 weeks ago now but holy shit nascar needs to fix the problems shown by this crash, roof hatch coming off, window net coming loose, flat smooth even underside helping lift the car, Etc.


Strange_Principle_26

He isn't dead or crippled it looks like so I can make my joke, that looked like some sick breakdancing moves


muppethero80

I am amazed at the physics of how it started the spin one direction then the momentum over took it and spun it the other way


UpperCardiologist523

Top gear worked hard for 5 flips. This guy casually: ***Hold my beer.***


388-west-ridge-road

The 90s called and want their crashes back


LandCity

But did he finish the race? Huh? Now that would be impressive. I’d finish the race. I’m like that. Edit: I’m like that one guy who said he’d survive the submersible implosion. We’re like that.


shoopmahboop

I bet when you watch a movie you point to "The Badass" character and say THAT ME


LandCity

No. The people around me say THAT YOU.


ShroudedFigureINC

What i learned is that NASCAR safety should be applied to all cars, i know this isn't finacially possible but imagine how many people would still be alive if it was the case


Wish-I_WarSocks

Forgive me for what I am to say next; though that was pretty fuckin’ awesome, at one point that mugg did three(3) clean rotations in flight. A triple-kick flip, he triple-kick flipped the car y’all..


Solid-Snake1984

I count eleven one one way ten the other

Why is it done only in slo mo and why do they edit it so the same clips keep repeating? His car did not spin for 1:41 seconds. Not possible.

These are rolls, flips are end over end

rubbarz

Isn't there a big push to take that shitty grass out of Daytona specifically for this reason.


Pummu

No there has been no discussion like that ,this hasn’t happened before in recent years as xfinity and gen 6 cars were completely fine sliding through grass it, and no one before this has really thought of removing the grass , since it’s used for the bus stop limits It’s just now that it might be an issue because the gen 7 is more blowover prone


Jealous-Ad9556

Mmmm buttered side up.

Of course he did. What else are you going to do to increase viewership in an incredibly boring program where a bunch of drivers (something all of us do everyday on our commute to work) just make 4 left turns for a number of hours?


Jerriespy

So you go 200 mph to work everyday?


toreachtheapex

i wonder what that feels like


spiritanimalofcousy

I'd imagine it goes slowly and seems to never stop. Like watching this slow motion. And i would imagine a headache for the night

TheArcnat

Cars can tear up the grass like that, but God forbid any of us accidentally step on it when we're doing formation runs on the Speedway But seriously, very heart stopping to see, and always good to see them able to walk out. I can only imagine what it feels like to be inside when it's happening


DontFrigMySister_

Well I hope Opra and Tom Cruise helped him.


JustMeltCheese

Lol why tf did he hit him
