Insane Crash
#1
I don't know how he survived this. It is the worst crash I have ever seen in NASCAR.

This happened today, Elliott Sadler slamed into an old un-safe guardrail head on at aprox 150+ mph (as he was going around 190 before he left the track, and most likely slowed up as much as he could before impact) It is obviously a insane amount of G's sadler experienced - my older brother is a physics major and he's going to calculate it.

The wall he slamed into isn't a normal NASCAR "SAFER Barrier" It's an old guard rail infront of a mound of land - so he is basicly slaming into the ground or I guess you could say a brick wall at 150 mph.

They start talking about the wreck at, 0:48 the actual impact takes place at 1:18

(He's not the 2 Miller Light car, thats Kurt Busch. It's the #19)

Later reports said that he was fine, not even knocked out, but it was very painful and it knocked the wind out of him.

Good thing he is in great shape from working out every day like all NASCAR drivers. Not everyone can handle soo many G's. The normal person would be killed from that.
