One day in my mechanics class the teacher was absent, so he left us an assignment on safety, and we watched a video.
Anyway, this guy was doing about 150 mph on the autobahn with his Mercedes Kompressor (sp?) Convertible, when suddenly he hits a guardrail and flips over. So here this poor bastard is streaking along the side of the autobahn in an upside down convertible at 150 mph. Then he slowly decelerates and stops right near the security camera (which you're watching this through). Then you think for sure the guy's dead, because there's no activity for about 15 seconds. Then he crawls out the window, stands up and looks at his car, arms crossed. End Video.
What saved his life was a roll bar that flips up as soon as the car is tilted more than about 30 degrees either way, to save you in an accident like this.
Cool to watch.
