Goes to show that safety standards have come a very, VERY long way.

The odd thing about that is quite a number got up and run off lol, wonder how many died shortly after.You would almost think it was safer to be tossd out of the car, mind you speeds would be a bit slower but still.

They don't make them like that anymore! (thank goodness)

All accidents regardless of how "Safe" the car or drivers are wrapped up comes down to simple dumb Luck on your survival.

Awsum,cheers for that !

Good grief, talk about dare devils! I hope they twigged onto rollbars / cages pretty soon after the era of these sorts of crashes

magicmat, Apr 4, 5:34am
Was just thinking that. How on earth anyone survived rolling a car where the most prominent protruding feature was the top of their heads is a miracle!

I wonder what 90 years of future tech development will bring to cause a viewing of a 2012 crash reel to seem so primitive. Nice post, cheers.

Yep, some of those old cars were pretty damn quick.
They had an old 1950's maserati on Top Gear, 270bhp from a 2.5litre engine, 0-100kph in under 5 seconds.

You've gotta take your hat off to the drivers - fast car - but no roll cage, crap brakes and crap tyres.
