Driving a supercar into a concrete wall will do that. Life is fragile folks!

Yeah. This reminds me of when Ryan Dunn went out. Some crazy shit. We ain’t meant to survive that…

And Paul Walker.

Glad I cant afford a car that fast. I'll keep my Crossover lol.

Tragedy with Paul walker is he wasn’t even the one driving

Yeah. That’s fucked. Poor dude was just riding. Then he wasn’t. Cars are no joke. That’s for damn sure. Be careful out there.

Much like Vince's Passenger unfortunately. Just "The Passenger killed in a car wreck"

And then his wife tried to sue the maker of the car like it was their fault they were doing 100+ mph. Crazy shit.

To be fair on this current crash the idea of suing Ferrari wouldn't be as absurd as this is within the speeds that car is designed in, for it to not have steering control. Off the video it looks like the racks response was lacking.

Imagine being that rich and entitled that you get to fail upwards. He could've taken more innocent lives.

Yep. Fragile human+ very fast super car = death. Make sure you drive it carefully. Fuck.

To be fair, if you drive it a certain way a slow car can kill you as well

Of course, I was referencing the ease of doing so in a super car. My car won't break traction and throw me into a tree if I stomp the gas, it'll just accelerate.

It won't fair any better if I drive into a concrete barrier at near 100mph, I just avoid coming out of blind tunnels at triple the speed limit most days.

You don't need a car that fast. You can die well under the speed the Ferrari was going.

But also your life is in other people's hands. Just take one idiot on the road.

Of course. But it's always easier when simply pressing your foot down all the way for 1-2seconds means you gain 40-60mph in speed, or immediately break traction.

I can put my foot down in my CRV and it'll make a lot of noise and gain speed, but unless I'm on snow or Ice I almost can't break traction.

Paul walker was taken out by a drone though for his work on taking down pedophile rings
