The luckiest man on the Planet in a Chevy 55

[Jamal1053]

i think if his suspension was lower than wouldnt have happened but dats just wat i think.

[sinister99gt]

that is one of the most fkd up things i have seen.

[xXlolxtechXx]

hahahaha fucking fail

[ZamolxisReborn]

hey, dude, i think the steering's pulling a little to the left!...

oh, snap.

[LeahciMAB14]

that idiot deserves it. he cant drive worth shit. he gave it gas as it started to flip. hell he gave it gas like 4 times off of the line from his absolutely horrible launch

[PlanckEp0ch]

that was all wrong from the green light was the guy drunk?

[blaknoizee]

@PlanckEp0ch I was thinking the same thing. God why'd he even try?

[loveliibabiee]

tôll_lëÜtÈ_sÜcht_mál_NAch:_oli­kohle_áûf_gÓögle_vÓll_gÊîl

[PS3PS3PS3PS3]

He stood up and saw his own wreck....as it was still happening!

[D12caterpillar]

@PS3PS3PS3PS3 that would be fucking scary as hell lol

[7RossW]

It was the best thing for it.

[mesmilez1]

OMG! THAT IS SO TERRIBLE! that car was destroyed!

[altimgamr]

@ :20 thats the best looking chevy ive ever seen

[Dannyisgreatful]

i like how he used his superpowers to rewind time

[struckran]

see it bouncing around? couldnt have helped...

[botoheadboy]

Look perdy lucky to me

[bigdkntexas]

Notice at the 60' mark where the automatic tranny missed, it went from first to fourth gear causing all the linkage to break loose in the power housing. Dammit man, tighten up the left side for more torque in the chasis. This will definitely help in the overall handling, but don't set anything to close, timing is everything. You can get a power module at Walmart and that can install this for less than $90.00.

[StickShiftRacer]

@bigdkntexas Ummmmm, that wasn't an automatic-it is/was a stick shift. Power housing? WTF?

[StickShiftRacer]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, wouldn't you think (as a driver) if you were already over in the other lane it may be time to lift/put the clutch in? How about that "over correcting of the steering" Geeeze. Definitely could have been prevented. Yeah, he got lucky that time...

[wallaber123456789]

if you think thats the luckiest man on the planet, you got a messed up sense of 'lucky' :|

[Suicslider]

chevy's dont have vtec just those honda pieces of shit because chevy knows how to make high powered motors correctly

[spidermath005]

@Suicslider Haha youre so wrong I think thats the best line I've red so far.

[magikbeanz]

i dont think that is called luck

[lofi73]

I guess Don renfrow was thrown......

[Altonmcc]

His problem was he had a 57 front end on a 55. Very unstable platform.

[bikerty67]

how many beers did he have ?

[hanif12able]

that car looks very unstable ?

[wizzard1551]

he couldent drive any ways

[Phenomate]

There's something really creepy about this video.. Wow.. I feel something very very powerful when I watch this guy and other people escape death..

[Flarty85]

@Phenomate

i agree i think this was more than just luck i think this was a lesson.

[RReaper100]

@crawsj50 I think you mean rear axle , buawahahahahahaha idiot

[crawsj50]

you got me, that was a pretty retarded thing to say! I guess I was side tracked on how AWESOME it was that he was standing before the wreck even finished. But, touche on missing the point and calling me an idiot.

[RReaper100]

@crawsj50 Yeah the idiot part was harsh eh , but true , incredible the man even stood after that

[LisaB91165]

I'm happy for Don, but it so sad to watch that car get killed!! No chance she got a lucky break, and pulled through....What a tragic loss!!

[Thedanfrom1985]

That man is like god if there was such a thing. That man got up and seen the car he was just in still crashing! Crazy!

[Ashbourne03]

awesome, he crashed his own car, and gets to watch it alive :)

[TheDemonsarehere]

I didnt know 55 Chevy had factory injector seat.

[rathuanyatzi]

@TheDemonsarehere hey stupid its ejector seat morron!!!! -.- dont you feel special!!

[TheDemonsarehere]

@rathuanyatzi Hey it's MORON NOT MORRON LMFAO now do you feel special aswell fuck head HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. WHO GIVES A SHIT IT'S YOUTUBE NOT SCHOOL.

[rathuanyatzi]

@TheDemonsarehere hey you low life piece of shit at least i dont spell ejector as injector!! and obviously you didnt finish your hooked on phonics now did you??!??? hahahhaha do your self a favor get the other volumes!! LOL!!!!!

[zlee415]

@rathuanyatzi @rathuanyatzi @TheDemonsarehere You guys know arguing on youtube is like the special olypmics, even if you win your still retarded.

[Balgore8]

Crazay!

[bfgray]

You can't expect to drive an old POF (Pile Of Fudge) Chevy in that manner without something bad happening. They are as sophisticated as a covered wagon and designed for similar speeds.

[coptersoisoi]

I rolled in a car once.. broken ribs, glass embedded in my face and the palm of my hands. everything really does slow down as if time itself does. whatever time is. I hope he lived. I see him get up slightly and kneel on one leg as if he is watching his car flip in front of him and he's praying he's no longer in it.

[999myname999]

where,s is this? is this ca?

[hobbeekid]

@999myname999 Yes. It happened in 1988 @ the old baylands raceway/Fremont dragstrip.Fremont Ca.

[999myname999]

@hobbeekid was in fremont in 1989... i missd that....lol

[tropicjester12]

the one time you can be happy to have rusty floorboards!

[Fizano55]

First of all, who rips down a drag strip with no seat belt on?? LOL and second of all, if your driving your car and it starts to swerve off the road, WTF DO YOU KEEP HITTING THE GAS FOR???

[TWARRIOR11]

not so lucky for the car

[MsS0NIC]

why lucky ? i saw only the crash how am i sure he lived after that ?

[EECIEI]

that thing looked like it was gonna fall apart when it took off. One work of advice don't fuck with that guy, hes like Jason or Michael Myers, just keeps getting back up

[DeanaSalges]

danke fürs video hat einer bock bisschen zu quatschen ihr werdets warscheinlich nicht bereuen

[soapyman100]

hey i ran a 10. 76 ina 8 mile before that happen so give me a beer and and a hammer and a wrench will get it running tonight lol

[bsmit389]

What was his time?

[BumbleBeeGS]

@bsmit389 about half an hour.

[clintonearlwalker]

I don't know if the audio is in sync, but at 13 seconds, the car is pointed at the scoreboard, in the wrong lane, and it sounds like the guy is still on the gas. I believe I'd have lifted before then.

[OleVanDole]

Thats the thing with those cars though, unsafe as FUCK!

Just watch the safety film from 1959 called Signal 30

[fireballproducti0ns]

Good thing he wasn't wearing a seatbelt!!!!

(^_^)

[2525Jake]

how the fuck did that car get thru scrutineering? musta been well built for the seat to fall out like that. he never shoulda kept that run going, the car was all out of shape as soon as it left the line, woulda run a shit time anyways.

[creativegrounds]

irony at its finest.

[davidwaters69]

The Pessimist complains about the wind. The Optimist expects it to change. The Leader adjusts the sails....

[spsc100]

what he was going at 101mph the looked as if it was going to 20 mph

[AaronsHere]

true american rat rods. give it too much hp and torque you get this. i feel bad for the owner and this fine american muscle car, that had some badass speed

[biggie1044]

wtf i was in that 2 secs ago

[BloodWingz911]

do a barrel roll!

[leashme08]

holy shit balls

[bobba84]

u shouldnt do 12s with leaf springs!

[theodogeo]

The only sure thing is that he needs new pants.

[shwinki]

One things for sure..

That's a chevy no more.

[TheTexasPro]

convenient just doesnt say enough for this one

[mausismuhkuh]

I think this car won't be rebuild right? Lucky Don I would say

[carlosararat]

....umfffffff!!! se bajo justito en el pasto.......

[Piasintei71]

hahahahaha Idiot Driver

[KEVIN557GRUNT]

The old Fremont Dragstrip......I really miss that place

[Matteger23]

@KEVIN557GRUNT we all do!

[440sac]

wow he was smart, stay in it even when your losing it!

[zombiesack]

what the fuck is wrong with you tube my com. is all mested up

[caseman86]

but hey, he was close to 10.76 ! what a nice time

[lexale]

che culo!!!!!!!!

[723STONER]

intense

[ndman2]

HELL YEAH!

[bmwnasher]

didnt know chevy`s had an ejector seat. great vid

[TheMatthew97]

SCREW Seatbelts

[CaptainUnderpants969]

so how the fuck could he be the luckiest man? this is fucked up

[kapotovez]

катапультировался вовремя

[outbreak201]

I cant. stop. laughing....XD

[jf99151]

Someone get that guy some soap and water so he can wash the shit stains out of his pants !!

[zrxdoug]

I see that the builder was nearly as talented as the driver. Idiots who try to "drive through" an event during a friggin' time run need to find a new hobby. Likewise idiots who don't know how to properly mount their seats & restraints.

[TheTechnoToast]

so not wearing a seatbelt can SAVE you. hrmmm

[t3hpwnz0r58]

bahaha!

[floydy22]

how the fuck did he escape that??? he got up and still had time to watch his own car tumbling....

[nunucpt]

lol seat belts arnt always safe!!

[Yoshii41umm2]

prince of persia!

[aliendo1]

That's hilarious, even when the car was in the air the dude was still trying to finish the race. He floors it at 0:14 .

[kylewest100]

wow that shit was crazy he is rlly fukin lucky and that guy that said he wasnt goin fast the hell you say if he was goin so damn slow how come that heavy ass chevy went flyin when tha air caught it dumbass he was atleast 100 thats fast

[GeoGrig]

he was driving without holding the steering wheel? lol

[user9000000]

Hmmm, the funny thing I saw, is that the car looked like it was going so slow, as compared to todays racing, it almost looked like it was being done on purpose (stunt man) or something, but I am sure it wasn't.

[starstarstar42]

Why does this remind me so much of the first time I had sex?

Ohhhhhh, now I remember why. Never mind.

[Rottmad]

typical redneck

[Coffeeandasmoke]

Dude never had that car under control. Damn lucky to be alive.

[oiler31]

what a handling package .. i head this car handles like the saleen s7 . creates equal downforce to the weight of the car at 200 mph hahaha

[Mrcool601]

i think that when the chevy was crashing the doors opened or something else and they could escape with no hurts. They are so lucky

[newton92able]

that was fucking awesome, how lucky was he.

[SteefStevens]

great outlined car

[0BAYAREA0]

he's lucky the car didn't roll on him

[Jourei91]

With that luck he could have been the richest man on earth for the next 259 years...

[snap200355]

he must be hammered drunk

[Fuchs1337]

he lost the control of the car and still accelerates and wheres the seat belt? maybe this time better without

[omid11]

oh shit vtec kicked in

[killersoundz]

@omid11 dude you just made me literally get on the floor laughing with that

[KenanVideos]

LMFAO!

[thavorn123]

you get what you paid for...

[RacsQT]

invest on suspension!

[nascarwrecks]

Wow. What are the chances that the door comes open and him coming out just at the right time to not get crushed or hurt by the car or anything else, and the seat coming out right after he does. Either that is in insane luck / timing / or God doesn't want him to die yet..You decide.

[ewtubewashed]

car racing is stupid in the first place.

take your time people. stay alive.

[russnord]

I wish somebody could get commentary frmo that guy, thats fuckin crazy....

[Sk8erBoy731]

lmao thats cool

[stough77]

Someone get that guy a beer!

[vlcalais2turbo]

this bloke cannot steer what the hell?

[pulseyoutoo]

I think the only thing that saved him was not having his seat belt bucked.

[cipher1x]

thats ironic lol

[taxmino]

yo....thats crazy..

[ECMadRUnner]

haha you can see the seat way up in the air. thats probably the only guy in the world that can say he watched his own crash as it happened.

[apatheticempathy]

Thats how you know theres a GOD !

[93SuperChargedStang]

Only a Chevy would lose a seat.

Race a Ford next time

[dyslexaphobia]

Fords Suck ASS

[freakskater655]

hey dumb ass that was a chevy

[JannisRauertibus]

Very lucky man in this (or out from) this chevy

[nofgood]

nice way to wreck that cool chevy,.

[wed3k]

you know it's a piece of junk when the front seat removes itself.

[wickedtrendz]

wow, very very lucky man

[greenhorn311]

He's got ball he was in the wrong lane side ways never let off the gas hell he even grabed another gear!

[lt1eg6]

1. He didn't fly in the air, that was his seat.

2. How is he a newb? it's obvious something went wrong with the car.

The video explain all people. just watch then talk.

[EbayConvict]

he still run a 10.76 lol !!

[rko123jja]

wat a n00b

[bringdarain]

I guess it was good this time not to wear a seat belt

[MrViicc]

wow like wow im just thinking that was a disgusting pass yet he flew soo high:P!

[manolis313]

and his time was..?

[DnzBoy07]

Don Renfrow.

[da666mien]

Very lucky... hope he picked some lotto numbers that evening!

[johnske84]

i think he is very happy that he was thrown out of the car at the height that he fell out at. lol. id be happy too then be left in teh car after that

[oafaloaf]

Look! he ran a 10.76 and didn't even finish!

must be chuck norris driving

[roberth214]

lmao

[MrViicc]

hahahahaa

[253UC]

Thats what you get for racing an unfinished project now try selling it on ebay..

[rocgard]

think if he was wearing safty gear he might be dead?? cuz he;s sit went like 50 feeet in the air and if he was straped in that seat he wouldve went for that high ride and broke his neck coming down so mabe it was good he wast straped to that seat.....and get better bolts to hold that seat down lol

[tienshenhan86]

I was watching the car the whole time and I was thinking what is that guy doing out there, he could have been hurt! Then the replay..oooh

[rican4you]

lol i thoguht exactly the same

[Metalsonic2008]

Poor chevrolette! RIP, CHEVY! EVEN THOUGH YOU GOT WASTED, TORN INTO PIECES, WE WILL STILL REMEMBER YO!

[CycolacFan]

I guess he wasn't wearing a safety harness judging by the way he got thrown out of the seat?

He was on his feet before the car landed!

I'd say lucky that no one else was racing along side him, and lucky there was no one sittng or standing alongside the track.

[nitrojunkie1029]

it should say luckiest man on the planet WAS in a 55 chevy

[Muddogg68]

He was in trouble at 10 seconds so why not shut it down? :(

[zachmetal]

thats NOT lucky

[otacon1000]

why was he going left its drag racing not nascar

[jjppssccoott]

ditto! instead of spending 15-25 grand on the motor alone, he should've kept a little aside for... say proper safety equip, susp, tires and uuh... paint!!

[rusbanros]

I knew the drivers son. it was his teenagers car and no, the engine only cost him around $700. after this he recycled the car for scrap and got like $50. shit happens

[motogpracer87]

They get confused :)

[68dz302]

the headline should read, most retarded man on the planet trashes a 55 chevy. what an idiot!

[Quick509BigBlock]

tht was a disaster from the start look at th car

[UnaldoStudios]

lmao thts wat u get u drive sumthing u cant handle expecailly a piece of shytt like tht

[nobule01]

he was doing his best impression of a fuel altered, but with only 300 horse power and hadn't driven a bicycle before this day. i have heard of people getting if over their head, but he really takes this deal to new levels. he need to get a tricycle and work his way up

[witecracker2]

rotflmao!!! so true lol lol

3 thumbs up!!!

[FastWhat101]

That why I don't drive a chevy. lol

[sonyericson20]

learn how 2 drive...... poor car

[vasili89gt]

what a true idiot!!!! he is very lucky to be alive!!!! thank God!! he should of got off the gas

[Sharma17]

"Err,,,,, TADA!!"

Miracle, thats luck at its best. Did he get tossed through the window perfectly, in one of the flips? Wow.

[KrazyKuul111]

aren't there things called 5-point safety harnesses that are supposed to keep you in the car... i mean, he would have probably died if he had a seatbelt on, but that is not the point. The point is, if you are drag racing, you should probably have a 5-point safety harness.

[chucholetsm8one]

I hope he had a diaper on too...

[Thegirloutiniowa]

DAAAAAAAAAAAMN.

[Sullystudio]

lol piece of shit 55,

[blue5lame]

damn, he just sliped right out.

[shyrah77]

that's what she said :P

[herbienbrian]

that gives new meaning to the ejectors seat XD

[freezesk83r]

why the fuck did they have the whole damn track wet!? stupid fucks!
