 Luck like that comes around once in a lifetime. This guy will most likely die of a tooth infection.

We canīt see it in the pic, but he fell down stone dead from a fear precipitated heart attack.
Or at least soiled his pants. Big time..

That kind of trauma doesn't hit you until later. He probably woke up in a cold sweat that night.

I love the way that he just stands there at first as the car cartwheels towards him, frozen w/ fear or just smoked a fattie? You decide.

I think he was just trying to figure out which way it was going to go.

WTF is a flagman hanging out at the outside of a turn??? Must be a Metro New York DE!
 After taking another look, this must be a Rally race through a 3rd world country and found it cheaper to use people holding flags than cones.

You know that old saying about always wearing clean underwear in case you get in an accident? What's the point? They're not going to be clean afterwards now, are they?
