This is one of those stories that has you scratching your head in bafflement and asking yourself 'how the heck did this happen?'. Not that all of your questions will be answered, but according to reports from the German media, the 23-year-old driver of the late 1980's Mitsubishi Colt (also known as the Mirage in certain markets) lost control of the car in the Bavarian town of Stadtprozelten and somehow used a nearby railroad embankment as a jumping platform to literally fly almost 100 feet (about 30m) into the air landing on the rooftop of a building!
According to the German police, the driver that suffered serious injuries from the accident was under the influence of alcohol. And while that may explain how he lost control of the vehicle, we're still puzzled to as how he actually managed to fly onto the rooftop.
In what could very well be the first-ever Nissan GT-R R35 crash documented on tape, a 'poor' GT-R owner loses control of his car after racing against a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IX MR on a twisty mountain road at night. As you can see in the video after the jump, the GT-R pilot didn't seem to be much of a match for the EVO driver -even though for apparent reasons, it's an easier task to keep up with a car in front than to be leading the chase/race. Follow the jump to watch the video.
Forget about racing games; 11 year-old Heuvel Jr from Finland skipped virtual reality and went straight for the real deal getting behind the wheel of what appears to be a rally-prepped Mitsubishi Lancer EVO II. With his mother paying a watchful eye from the passenger's seat, Heuvel Jr pilots the EVO like a pro on the snow. Check out this truly talented youngster in the video after the jump.
