Surprisingly, I am alive.


Recommended Posts

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!

I hope you've learned your lesson.
I have.

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?

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.

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.

With as many posts as the next top three posters, it seems that Huezo is either very proud of this wreck, or just likes attention.

I just hope that there at least has been a lesson learned here.

Dude... he is replying to other posts... I don't see where you want to go with that.

By the way, where the heck are you getting a chart like this?

On the forum page (Neobahn, in this case), click on the post count number.

My 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)

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.

    • low latency mode is still bugged and causing bootup times slow to a crawl. To fix, you have to disable the feature with vivetool. Seems as though it's not rolled out to a lot of people yet since I've only been able to find only a handful of people that are having issues.
    • I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.
    • You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time
