a friend of my brother was sharing the driving in this ex Carlos Sainz escort cosworth on this years Gumball 3000. The car was specced to death. 0-100mph in 6.06 secs and god knows what sort of top end. Lee-my bro's friend-(the owner was driving) decided that he would get some mental shots of them passing all the other Gumballers on a particular stretch of road so he quickly undone his harness to get the shots and............................................... .......................... it went bad. Really bad. Really,really bad

heres the aftermath.

Lee got flung out of the car when it started rolling (they were doing around 130mph when it went skiddy-widdy) he busted two vertibrae in his back and done his leg. he knew he had busted his leg because he remembers the heel of his shoe hitting him in his face! he also tore his nose and cheek away from his face (see dark area under left eye and big tear under nose and on forehead in pic) in a flappy sort of fashion. they put 140 stitches in his face. unbelievably the driver got out fine. The moral of this story? wear your belt, especially if you are doing 130 with two wheels off the side of a moroccan effort of a road!
