Roll-over SRT-10 burnout. :unimpressed:

There is some cursing in the vid.

That SRT-10 rollover is a perfect example of how things go wrong. He lifts just before or during a bump and the truck hooks after the bump right rear first. You'd have to be pretty good and lucky to save that with a narrow road, uneven pavement, and big crown. Digging into the soft ditch rolls it easily. A curb or mud like that can roll a vehicle over a hardly any speed at all. The roof collapses because the front of the cab lands right on the corner of the pavement, all the weight of a full size truck on the front A pillars. Note that the rear of the cab (or C pillars?) hold up fine. Guy is unlucky, but lucky if you know what I mean. Guy was an idiot, but if you think you could do the same and get away with it every time, you didn't learn the lesson here.

Another burnout rollover in a BMW...these guys were asking for trouble. Was the crowd cheering because the burnout was awesome or that they got what they deserved?
