Richard Hammond Crash Footage

[m3gtr]

so you think it didnt look extreme? granted the camera angle and length of shot blunted the sho but just remember...

a tyre exploded and he flipped at over 200 MILES per hour..in a freakin missle and he was at the pointy end of the thing..

just imagine how fast that would actually be.

Well as I predicted earlier the footage is at the end of S09E01 which was aired in the UK a day or 2 ago.

From what they show the accident looks quite tame with just a simple roll over and skidded along the grass on the roof. Formula 1 would have 10 or more accidents a year and Nascar would probably have atleast 1 accident a weekend worse than this.

Glad to see he is perfectly healthy again.

Yeh but im pretty sure they dont roll over at 288mph/463kph and then skid at 250mph/402kph.

However i love 'Speeding kills' line at the end and then they focus on Richard...and hes perfectly fine...hehe.
