*YES, I HAD A HELMET ON* Stacked my Vespa on Nov 27 2007. Hit a stopped car at around 80kmh (50mph), facebutted the dash, flipped and went through the rear windscreen face first. She’d stopped in a lane with a no-stopping restriction while I was behind her changing lanes with my head turned. It was hot that day so I left my full-faced helmet at home and wore the open face helmet with jeans and a shirt. Oops! Only spent two days in hospital after the doctors told me I would be there for up to 6 months. Was due to fly to the US on the 29th but put it back until Dec 17 which with hindsight was a little too early to go. Finished up with 4 full-thickness tears to the face with my bottom lip almost torn completely off, very deep puncture wound on my hand from brake lever, two very black eyes (lucky I had my sunnies on), glass and gravel all through my face which had to be picked and then sandpapered out, bleeding on the frontal and left temporal lobes of the brain, severe cuts and abrasions to both legs, teeth were forced back into head and very crudely wired back into the wrong spots (the guy who cut out the wire said it’s the most brutal thing he’s ever seen), a large hole above the right collarbone from the mirror stem, severe shoulder + elbow damage to both sides and a fair headache.
Much better now, I can almost feel my face

More of the recovery of Car 2. I was concerned that the tree behind the car would snap back when the car was dislodged, hence the comment from the recovery operator.
Not seen in this series of clips: Dragging the car up the embankment using a combination of chains to trees and winch to car, with a sharp right turn in the middle of the pull. 4×4 winchers would be proud of the work done!

Better luck next time, guys, and glad you’re safe!

Modern Day Mad Max

Ok, so *all* the vehicles shown here aren’t quite up to Mad Max standards. It’s taken two years to get this much footage and it was really slow going so I had to lower my standards a bit with some of the clips and just show whatever I found interesting for whatever reason.
