Here's a pretty spectacular accident involving a Porsche 964 RSR, a barrier and a river.

Harry Kleinjan was taking part in this year's Hellendoorn Rally, when he appeared to go straight on rather than negotiate a right-hand bend. We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off.

Whatever the reason, we're glad to say that Harry and his co-driver Bart den Hartog were unharmed following their flight.

Absolutely horrific.

They could've drowned too.

Dr ver error? Navigator error? There was no way he was ever going to make that corner.

+1

Also, did you notice the lack of brightly coloured chevrons on the demolished barrier, we won't know if that was a contributory factor or not.
Certainly an effective way of dipping ones headlights though.
 
You beat me to it. I just saw that on You Tube and was going to post the link.
 
Driver or co-driver error I wonder :?:

(and he's a Mod :roll: )

I understand the Titanic has just gone down too :eek:
