[Video] compilation of rally crashes

[mattx]

I used to watch rallying alot when I was a kid.....on watching this I still can't understand why there are some real morons who still stand on the outside of corners.....
Plus I love the way the spectators clap and cheer like it's the best crash wins, those crazy Fins...

Check out the guy laughing at 5:10

1. Finland is still huge on rallying, while the rest of the world may have died down on it.

2. THE best place to watch is on a corner.

And to point out that a straight bit of road isn't much safer:

I agree the best place to watch is on the corner......but not on the outside...

As for the coolness of the photographer......

It doesn't matter how many times I see this sort of thing, it still ALWAYS impresses me how much a tree does not move when it's hit by a ton and a half at 50mph!

One of the golden rules of watching any motorsport [ and one which my Dad taught me ] - ALWAYS stand behind a solid object.
