Wow, he's lucky!

I'd best not drive into islands with a parallel truck on my right, assuming I'll be safe...

Lucky guy

That clip has been played quite bit the past few days on the TV news programs and just amazing he was not killed.

Jesus, it takes his helmet clean off. I thought that was his head at first! Very Lucky Man.

 

[pmeloche]

Awesome. I would buy a lottery if I were this guy because that's one lucky dude. :lol:

 

[GP20]

Wow if he hadn't started walking back a few steps he'd be gone now.

Here's a couple from one of my regular marshalling locations - but I'm not directly involved in either of them.

Oulton Park GT race from 2006
(no-one injured - not even that marshal, although you'll see some orange through his black waterproof jacket after he stands up, this is where the rear bumper caught him)
