We've had a couple similar in V8 Supercar in the last 10 years or so.. but he was very lucky it didn't slam hard on to the roof or head first into the fence.. (already out of hospital) :goodjob:

Pretty amazing crash. Looked like something coming of the end of a hotwheels track.
The first hit on the nose looked to be the biggest, the rest looked to be fairly gentle all things considered. Big thumbs up to the safety cell builder.

Note how on his (I think) 4th and 5th rolls he does a double 360 forward somersault without the nose touching the ground in between.

High degree of difficulty, should score well.   :D
