Drag racing is a dangerous sport, and when you equip your car with a twin-turbo engine capable of producing 3,500 horsepower, things can get tricky. Dennis Bailey, a drag racer out of Georgia, experienced just what can happen when your car contains a bit too much power during a race in 2010. His souped up Mustang launched in the air mid-race and flipped over a cement wall, dismantling into pieces as it landed. Thankfully - due to some sort of miracle - Bailey made it out of the crash completely uninjured and lived to tell about the outrageous incident.
A new video posted on YouTube recently shows the full extent of Bailey's crash and the aftermath. Three seconds into the race, you can see his Mustang begin to do wheelies down the track, and once the seventh second hits, the car goes air born and smashes into the cement wall, flipping over the side and rolling a few more times before coming to a stop. In the midst of the action, a tire can even be spotted shooting up into the air. The true jaw-dropping moment, however, is the shot of the car following the accident, which you can take a look at in the entire clip below.
