I survived this, completely unhurt.
VideoThey'll probably take the video down soon, so if anyone could figure out how to save it for me I'd truly appreciate it.
I get "CONTROL REMOTO UNIDAD COBRA"
man your nuts what happended there have.... totaled your car?
Aren't you the guy that claims to be such a great driver and justify your driving at high speed by that?

lol, I tough you where more safe by speeding, and now you got an accident? (I can't see the video, but I guess you got an accident)
I think you have to wait some time for the video app to load. Their site is slow.

http://www.corporativo44.com/notasvideos/notavip1.wmvHopfully you learnt your lesson, espically seeing the topic about an 18year old crashing his dads M5, taking 4 others to an early grave.
You think your a good driver, but your not. Learn from it before you kill someone else...
It seems you dont learn from your own mistakes, maybe something should of happened to you this time to remind you you're not invinsable.

The only video information I can find in the source of that page is the following:
http://www.corporativo44.com/notasvideos/notavip1.wmvIt looks like the car hit something very solid (a tree?), hard enough to pop suspension springs out and crack open some kind of oil reserve (maybe the engine itself).

Bueno mi querido amigo, yo espero que esto te haya hecho reaccionar. Esta vez fuiste tu y sobreviviste, la proxima vez podrias matar gente inocente y a ti mismo. Madura y comportarte Victor.
My dear friend, I hope that this made you open your eyes. This time it was you and you survived, next time you could kill innocent people and maybe even yourself. Mature and act right Victor.

Definitely. I can't believe I survived that. I can't believe I survived that completely unhurt.
Thanks to those who posted links to the video, I already saved it.
Edit: The news network got my name wrong.

Good thing to know. Thankfully you didn't hurt/killed anybody else before understanding that.

Wow... at least your alive. Hopefully you don't feel the need to speed as much anymore. Sure I drive a bit over the speed limit but your stories just arn't safe for streets.
I'd like to see what new car you get though. Hopefully you see some pictures when you get it.

I don't remember anything two minutes before the accident until I was in the hospital. There's a 45 minute blank in my memory. I was conscious and coherent, I just don't remember.

I don't think I'll be getting a car anytime soon. It's also the last thing on my mind right now.

True. But in the end it's just a car. It's not irreplaceable. I'm glad it was the car that was totaled and not me.
I'll post some higher resolution pics later where one can truly appreciate the magnitude of what happened.
Police say that the impact must have been at 160-180km/h.

I know everyone else has said it, but we all saw it comming after reading many of your posts about driving. That said though, I'm very glad you got out fine and learned a valuable lesson. Remember that a majority of driving relies on experience. After driving for a while you encounter some pretty hairy situations that if you survive, help you in the future. It's also sad to see another BMW totaled in the same week.
Best of luck with everything man, hope all is well!

if he doesn't take note and learn something....the next 'video' might be something he won't personally be able to save....glad you didn't get hurt..take it as a 'sign' from your higher power.

Dude, it took a major crash for me to back down from my "Look, I can handle my car at speed - trust me" stance. Glad you got out ok, but hope you will back off from the stance and realise that ANYONE can have an accident at any time - and so adding speed is not a great idea.
By the way, for a few months after my major accident, I honestly, 100% totally swore I was invincible - the accident was THAT bad, my injuries were horrible, yet I left A&E, sorted myself out cos they were taking ages, didn't get the correct medical help, and felt fine cos I survived. I thought I was totally indestructable.
Now later in life, those un-fixed injuries are haunting me. Get the right attention - even if just a jarred neck!

good for you. Currently i'm trying to teach my brother the samething. He took out his airbag, customized his car to the point where I would never drive the thing. Why would you replace the steering wheel, for a smaller one without an airbag?
Glad the lesson is finally learnt. I know it feels good to go fast, but maybe join a local racing club if there is one?

Just days ago you where telling us that "at least he was not babying the M5" from the 18yo who killed himself and 3 others.
Now it's your turn. I remember telling that you would be next in an accident. Guess I was right. Glad to see that you've learned and that you're not hurt.
Hope you had insurance and can get a new car soon. Drive safely now, or if you must speed, do it at a "safer" place like a legal race track.

The steering wheel airbag didn't deploy because there was no front impact so it would have hurt more than helped. The curtain airbags did deploy though.

Well, if a car keeps me protected at that high of a speed and impact, I'd buy another one. Weird as it sounds, I'd feel like it really did its job at keeping me protected.
Man, I'm glad that you weren't seriously injured because they looked like they were taking their sweet-ass time getting everything done. Yes, before anyone says how dumb that comment was, I do realize that they have to be careful getting you out and making sure they don't kill you by moving your neck, etc. But then the paramedics start talking to the camera, etc. Just different from the news I watch (when I watch it) They'd be out of their as quickly as possible to get you to a hospital, not stopping to talk with reporters. It's like your life was on display. That's kinda bull**** if you ask me.

I know it sounds kinda morbid, but I'm kinda hanging out for detailed pics of the car. It looked very much totaled from the video! Where on the car did the impact actually take place?

It isn't morbid. I'll post them as soon as I get a hold of them.
There are still people calling my family giving their condolences because they think I died.

On the forum page (Neobahn, in this case), click on the post count number.
Click to view attachmentMy post was an observation that Huezo seems more interested in mirroring the video to get all the views he can, rather than learning a lesson.
But I may be wrong. This may have truly and profoundly changed the kid.
(and yes, I realize that my posting replies to your post has thrown off the original observation. Heisenberg was right, observing things
does change it)

It doesn't look as bad as I expected given the title.
Just saw better shot although still note quite what I expected.
hope you get your money from that other dude.
i used to be very enthusiastic about speeding, but later i realised that you're really less likely to survive if you crash at these, for example, 140km/h rather than 90km/h. 90km/h is quite likely to kill you too, but at least you get more chance to brake the car. and physics apply to eveyone, no matter how insane driving skillz you have.
HA! If only he had died. Visit
this thread for instant irony.
