Rally Car Rolls 15 Times!

BangShift.com

Rally racing is cool stuff with cars flying through the air and hurtling over all sorts of terrain at high rates of speed. This particular car happens to be driven by the crazy nut Travis Pastrana. Travis apparently hits an undulation in the road incorrectly and launches this car into a series of rolls like we have never seen before.

The in-car cuts are wild. Note that the driver and co-driver are talking to each other before they even stop rolling. We can only guess that the co-driver may have had some reservations about climbing into that car again.

Pastrana has literally jumped out of an airplane without a parachute so this may not rank that high up on his scale of death defying feats, but for mere mortals like us, it tops the charts.

Barrell rolling to Hell and he still has the presense of mind to hang on to the steering wheel, just in case it comes back on all fours.

Ya travis is a pretty crazy driver. He says that he went through 3 cars in his first season of rally racing because he feels so much more secure being a car with a roll cage than on a dirt bike. And I think his navigator was Jim DeChamp who still navigates for him.

this was the commercial promoting sedan rolls. Hatchbacks kill.

if it weren’t for the horizon flashing by the driver’s window 15 times, you’d think he was still negotiating the course…
