I just found this on YouTube. I guess he wanted to test the airbags.

Explain that one to Allstate!

I had to stop watching it, it was too painful.

Crap, I guess so... And it looked like it still had the dealer plates... That was painful to watch.

Oooh, that makes me want to cry.... the little description said they asked some guy to do a magic trick and he said instead he would do a donut..... rule number 1. DON'T TOUCH THE E!

That was painful to watch. After rewinding it for the 15th time I had to stop.:D

Looks like something I would have done when I was 15.

Right then! Really good then! what an absolute moron, his parents should be shot:shock:

Why shoot the parents when you can shoot the ones that did it? What did they do?

What an idiot!!! It looked like a brand new '06 with the paper plates still on!! He certainly popped the airbag, it looked like a very hard direct hit!!!
Peoples like that should get flogged three times a day!!! BUT I appreciate that the Dummkopf didn't take anyone else (innocent) down with him! That light pole sure showed him!!! :-) :-) :-)

That is the funny thing i have seen yet of You Tube... it makes you think of the dumb people that like to film stupid things. Not only is he doing donuts, but racing. Two things that Insurance companies frown on...Did you see how far that front bumper piece shot off...Bet his parents were happy ! :lol:

I think his girlfriend crapped alittle in her pants, when she saw the impact...:lol: I had to replay it about 20 times.. What an idiot !

Those Light poles with the concrete block are not the break away poles light on the highway ! :lol:

As my old boss used to say......No Brains No Headaches.....

Damnnnnn...:???:

exactly why we should have rules that let certain people bred and some not to

Right then! Really good then! what an absolute moron, his parents should be shot:shock:


He is a future 'Darwin Award Applicant', and he is training for the big coup!!!

what an idiot....

Well why the hell was that pole in the middle of a freaking parking lot? :rolleyes: :D

I hope he is not a member of the EOC.

I would be ashamed.:)

Well why the hell was that pole in the middle of a freaking parking lot? :rolleyes: :D
I'm sure that guy was asking the same thing!!! Maybe it's the same dude that jumped on HellaMent's hood!!!!!

wow, pure stupidity. let someone drive YOUR car...always a bad idea, especially when they say they are going to do something stupid.... OUCH

it was fun to watch a few times...

dang... thats a bummer...

There was a time in my life when I got very annoyed by the actions of stupid people. That being said, stupid people are really job secureity for paramedics like me. Now I just feel sorry for the victims of the stupid. :neutral:

I have to wonder two things:

1) Is this guy from the south?

2) Did he speak those famous words, "Hey y'all, watch this!" that so often precede dumb stuff like this?
:D

That is so horrible to watch. A brand new E wrecked!
:-(

i'd love to hear the story that the insurance company got.

Anyone love the background voices?


*giggling*

*pop*

*pause*

*OHMAHGOD*

That'll buff right out.

What an idiot! He probably claimed it was stolen after the fact. Someone asked if he was a member of the EOC. I don't think so, Homey don't play that! Membership wouldn't be approved for this jerk and if he were a member, after inquiring as to whether he was OK, it would have been revoked along with his license. Oh, he doesn't have a license thus why he was driving in a parking lot.

Right then! Really good then! what an absolute moron, his parents should be shot:shock:

The birth control protection failed with this one... :shock:

Regards,

I like how the guy in the back ground was oblivious to a vehicle speeding towards him.......can we say set up stunt with a stolen car?

Maybe the owner? Or the owner's daughter?

You know. Skip says to Jane, "Let me try out your Mom's car. What could happen here in a parking lot?".

Somewhere down that long tunnel of time I recall doing one or two things almost as stupid. :???:

Yeah, but I bet you can't top that.

2005s didn't come in GG...???

Well .......not captured on video. And not that I'd readily admit to.

But damn close to that stupid.

Yeah, damn close.:)

Gimmie da' keys...........

Law Of Probability: The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act!

one word, Dumbass.

Guarantee it was someone under the age of 20 :D

No experienced driver would do something so stupid......LET OFF THE GAS DUMBASS!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

i kept rewinding it, and i cant figure out what that dude hit. it made me say OUCh just by watching it.

He hit a light pole base ! then his face against the air bag, and then the poop leaking down his legs !:neutral:

next time the owner allows a stranger to do a "magick trick" while he films, he better make sure the stranger...
wait a minute, there's not gonna be a next time, is there!

I just died a little inside.

I feel bad an E has to a have an owner like that!

that was an interesting popping sound. it handeled well on the turn I thought. but how did he not see the lamp post? I hava a huge parking lot at my university that is COMPLETLY void of lights and other obsticals and is about thirty E's wide. Also fortunate for me is I am dead scared of a rollover.

Wow...that Element looks exactly like my new E...glad it wasn't mine.

That's almost as painful to watch as being kicked in the nads!! I feel sorry for the poor E..

Quit making fun of me, my parents were mad about that :-|


:D

think about it...you are being stupid, you speed off, do a donut and why your having fun, in the turn out of the donut for those couple seconds of the turn you don't see the light post because of the thick A pillar and then wham..Pop!:roll: Ouch my face, ahhh I just pooped my pants and my girlfriend was filming too !:lol:

Nope, not from the south.....the girl said "OMG"!!!! If they were in the south she would have said "Holy Sh*t"!!!!! Or ALLLLLLLRIGHT!!!!!

No, if they were really from the south, they would have said "Oh no, not again!" :D

It seems like a lot of people didn't read the description. The owner didn't even actually drive it... he let a homeless person drive it.

Stupid mistake list:
1) Letting someone you don't know drive your new E (or any car of yours in general)
2) Letting a homeless person with no liscense drive your car
3) After reporting the car as stolen to avoid paying the repair, posting the video of what really happened on youtube.
The list could go on and on.
on the quote of it being in the south due to stereotypes of the way we talk... thats understandable, but the terrible accent really isn't there, it would have been more drawn out. Well, i'm at least speaking out of living in south Georgia :) The accent can get worse than it is down here, but I doubt by much. Plus any stereotypical southerner wouldn't have an E... "its a wussy car that think's its a truck." Obviously I'm not the stereotypical southerner :D

Anyone that would do that to an Element - and one in such a fine color! - obviously deserves exactly what he got.

And lest I get too righteous, I am reminded that I did some pretty stupid stuff in cars, once upon a time. My bet is that Genius there will have learned a painful and expensive lesson.....which was all too often the way that I learned them, back in The Day.

No, if they were really from the south, they would have said "Oh no, not again!" :D

Naw. If they were from the south she would've said "Sumbitch! Grab the kids y'all, lets git!"

Here is the description that comes with the video

yeah, during a scavenger hunt we needed to get a stranger to do a magick trick for us. the dude we asked said he would do a doghnut for us instead.....yeah that was a mistake

I don't see anything about a homeless guy, but maybe I missed it somewhere else.

Here is the description that comes with the video



I don't see anything about a homeless guy, but maybe I missed it somewhere else.

The deeper one digs the worse it gets... Next thing the homeless dude will sue the car owner for whiplash...!!!! What an idiot, NOBODY will do NO stinkin' dough nut with my E. Heck I will not do dough nuts!!! I want to keep it for 20 years...!

Even if he hadnt wrecked it,,,,,,they would have never gotten the smell out!!!!!

I think the guy driving was pretty young. and he didn't look homeless to me from the blur that I saw. anyway crap happens. at least the airbags didn't go off so the E isn;t a gonner. Hey, was that girl blonde?

Ugh, so many things make me sick watching that video...
1. Wrecking a new E
2. Letting someone you don't know drive your E
3. Several people thought it was a good idea
...excuse me, I think I'm going to dry heave for a while.

The number one mistake that guy made, besides being born, was this:

If you're going to do a donut in a FRONT wheel drive car, you must do if in REVERSE. Duh. And if you think you're going to do one in a 4WD car, forget about it.

Either way, the E does not come in a rear wheel drive configuration and cannot do 'Mustang' style donuts. Idiot.

-Bo-

Wow...that Element looks exactly like my new E...glad it wasn't mine.




It looks just like my new ELEMENT too !!!
Painful to watch !:-(

Wow can this guy spell or what. Now I understand why his Element hit the post. Whats a Doghnut ? is that what is under the dog ?:lol:

I retract my homeless statement. I seem to have inadvertantly fabricated that. Still not exactly a bright idea. And the description appears next to the video on youtube.

I would like to think that all present became aware of this at the moment of impact... :-)

if i had to guess the kid had seen vids of the gmc syclones/typhoons doing axial spins and thought he could pull it off in an E even though it doesn't have fulltime awd, has about a 9" higher center of gravity and over 100 less hp. Nice going.

hmmm... that was mean. im from the south and probalby a better driver than you.

this vid was removed by the poster....larry did you do that ? lol

I guess he had to get rid of the evidence before reporting it to his insurance agent.

hmmm... that was mean. im from the south and probalby a better driver than you.

Why would you say that what I said was mean? I was making a joke about his STUPID ACT, not your DRIVING SKILLS.

Did you actually get to watch this video before it was removed?
Well, if you did then you should know what I'm talking about. Letting a complete stranger into your new E to burn rubber and do a donut(and ultimately crash into a lightpole) is STUPID. No other way to say it.

nah, you can spin a FWD car plenty. Come see me autox my civic sometime :razz:

Funny you should say from the south. I lived in Alabama for several years and one summer, my ex and I went to hang with her brother's best friend up in Florence (near the Tennesee border). Well, dude gets roaring drunk (mind you he was 30-something) and decides he's going to do donuts in his brand-new, leased Chevy S-10. Well, a couple donuts later, we all hear an engine over-rev, a loud smack, and several choice curses emanating from the darkness.
Idiot had slid the truck sidelong into a tree at about 40 mph and bent the frame. The truck looked like #@%& and he got away with it. Lied to the insurance and lending companies about the circumstances and the @$$ got away with it! :mad:

Let me ask this about the above incident: DID HE LEARN HIS LESSON?

Mmmm...he was one of my ex's brother's (who was stupid) friends so I'd say not :twisted:
