Shit me! What happened to the other fella?

[KruJoe]

Jeez, what a mess. He did well to climb out of that.

[Split_Pin]

He climbed out of that wreck like CHUCK NORRIS!!

 

Holy crap!

[shedvan]

Sweet Jesus that is unreal, the car was swiped hardest on the driver's!!

 

This is one of the situations where brown-trouser is excusable

[michael1703]

Fuck my trousers!

 

What happened to the passenger? did he exit out of the back after the rear end snapped off?

 

I'll show the missus to say "look, ner, you know you don't like me not wearing a seatbelt"...

[retrogeezer]

that is incredible!

[ayrshirelad]

Bloodyhell!!!! He was lucky to get oot of that in once piece. Some of the other vids are equally scarey!. Especially as it seems to be the camera cars that get hit or are involved!. Our roads are quite safe by comparision me thinks!

[Morgan84]

Looks like he threw himself across the passengers seat - lucky for him he did

[Minimad5]

Eeek

After watching that, and finding out both survived - I think everyone should own a Riva

[gimble]

quality driving to boot perfectly good motor ruined

[CreepingJesus]

Christ almighty...he was in the shit before he hit anything, anyway. Road looks treacherous too.

[worldofceri]

Road looks fine to me. I'd say it's the drivers using it!

[wackywacerwill]

Looks like he was driving like a complete bell!

The transfer of energy as he spun off must have had a good deal to with him being able to get out unaided. Luck/karma/voodoo magic must have played a large role too.

[Junkman]

He can save the lotto money for the next few weeks.

[Andrew353w]

BLOODY HELL!!! I had a Lada & knew they were built like tanks but this really makes the point. I'm totally flabbergasted!!!

 

I suspect he'd forgotten to take his "brave" pill that morning......

[Rod/b]

Pause it at about 33-34 seconds and you can see through the back window - both front seats are occupied, so I reckon that's the passenger that comes out. Not quite so lucky...

[Minimad5]

Jesus H Christ! That's not just a crash. That’s a demolition job… A very lucky escape there.

 

I’m surprised he tried to overtake in a situation like that to be honest… Mind you, I've seen similar manoeuvres (without the crash) up on the 'A' roads of Scotland to be fair…
