What rev limiter? I suppose he will think twice before pulling something like that again.

That's why you don't get out of the car while doing burnouts.

I personally dont see hanging out if a moving vehicle as fun purely for my own safety aspect. I am all for fun, but think he was trying too hard. :P

Whether its entertaining or not, its still a bloody stupid and dangerous thing to do.
Edit- I noticed in the search keyword of the video, it had dead listed. Maybe he died?

Im pretty sure the guy didnt survive that. You might laugh at his stupidity, but have a bit of humanity for the deceased.

you wouldnt even try driving down the road normally outside the car, or parking it, let alone at rev limiter doing donuts...
no matter how much you practice things, it may go wrong... i dont mean to offend anyone, and i have the utmost respect, but look at peter brock... |

I dont think it would have been fatal? He might have some impressive exhaust pipe burns, might have been a bit silly though........

If he is still alive he might as well be dead, He would have some pretty impressive burns and to top it off he was crushed by lets say 1.3T of barvarian metal so he would be pretty uncomfortable.

Yeah, him under the car stopped it from moving so I'm guessing that he would have some pretty horrific injuries. Also, it looked like the car ran over his chest so I would have to agree that the guy probably died. As mentioned earlier it did look funny, but I'm sure there's been moments when one of us has shown off however been lucky enough not to be caught out like this bloke.
In the Nelson vernacular I would say "Ha Ha", but until conformation the guy survived I will remain on the fence with this one and say "Ha, Oh" My 2 cents anyway.

The front wheel ran over his torso where all his vital organs are, the car rolled his body between teh car and pavement, most likely busting most of his rib cage with almost 3,000 pounds of car on him, and then the car loses traction from being raised up by his body. What kind of superman do you think he is. The guy in the video is from the "Watch how stupid I can be" department. He was wearing a helmet, too bad he didn't have a brain in it too. I feel bad for his family. Steve
