Pretty disturbing footage right there. I can count more than a half dozen definite fatalities, at the very least.

As a racer, I have a lot of appreciation and gratitude for those before me who demanded better driver protection and safety measures. Jacky Ickx and Jacky Stewart come to mind immediately.

Racing back then was fun and daring, and no one gave a lot of thought to the danger involved... at least until they burned to death or were crushed by the race car they had just been thrown from at high speed.

I agree with Reaper as well, but I have to ask the Eskimo: Did you freeze your berries off, or are you naturally lame?

There is nothing IN worthy about this. Great song, great vid. WEAR YOUR SEATBELTS FRIENDS!

I've been in more than one rollover, and it isn't fun.

Yes, lets all watch with  glee as people get flung out of their cars at high
speed and die on impact.

Tell me, have you ever seen it happen in real life? You won't find it so
amusing afterwards.

I've seen plenty of actual people die, my grandfather died in my grandmothers arms, and I saw my great grandmother get wrecked by an 18 wheeler and saw her die.  I didn't find it amusing, But I got over it. Besides they learned from mistakes and made harnesses and roll cages and more sturdy fuel tanks with engine cut switches. If non of these people had died that stuff wouldn't have been thought to be needed. These people dying made our present driving safe.

Did I have to watch it? No, and I didn't watch it all.

However, it's quite hard to tell what's on the other side of a link,
when no description is given.
