Nascar, Indycar, F1... all very exciting sports, but also unfortunately come with risk of injury during a crash. Today I've compiled a bunch of infamous crashes where miraculously drivers survived. We talk about the accidents, the injuries, the recoveries, and how these racing organizations have changed the rules and improved vehicles to keep drivers' and spectators' health and safety at the track! Specifically I look at crashes involving Romain Grosjean, Robert Wickens, Ryan Newman, Rusty Wallace, Mike Conway, Geoff Bodine, Eddie Irvine, Fernando Alonso, and Lee Petty. Let me know down below if there are more crashes you think I missed!

Gorsjean not only survived 160mph crash, but he stayed in the flames for 27seconds. That's just amazing how much safety in racing sports developed.

@Navajonkee Год назад

It's especially amazing if you consider that the regulation required the overalls to withstand 1000 C° for 12 seconds. Grosjean more than doubled that time. He was lucky that his safety equipment was well beyond what the regulations asked for.

What did it for me was a few seconds after the crash. They cut away and were showing the other cars coming through turns 9 and 10 heading back to the pits and you can clearly see the fireball in the background. It was at that point that I thought I watched someone die.

@n4rttu Год назад

my ex just walked in after the crash, saw my face and asked what's wrong? I replied that someone just died. I saw grosjeans car just before impact, and I knew the speed they're going there. was 100% sure someone died there.

@catz8449 Год назад

One of the scariest things about Grosjean’s crash is that the height of his body and the design of the barrier means that if not for the Halo device, he would’ve probably been decapitated by the barrier at that speed.

@PaintrainX Год назад

Yeah, I’m still baffled how the car wedged through the barrier and was split in half. Never thought that was possible. One would expect the car to come to a hold because of the barrier. Or completely smash through it (or over it) at that speed.

@bionicgeekgrrl Год назад

@@PaintrainX the splitting in half is apparently supposed to happen in those situations. The piercing of the barrier and bursting into flame like it did is the bit that wasn't supposed to happen. They made safety changes to the cars following it so that the fuel tanks would not rupture.

@adsyoffinch Год назад

That was first race I managed my then new girlfriend to watch with me, she's also soon to be a doctor. Man, 3rd(?) Corner into the race and then this crash happened. I was tearing up. I love the sport with my whole heart, my brother called me and his words were 'another one after Jules is gone. When they started showing pitlane I was sure Romain is gone. As for what Mike has said about leaving the car so that Marion (Romains wife) can see him alive, well, at that time he himself said the only thing that got him out of his car was him thinking about his children and wife. Love is strong dude.

@tmane.7848 Год назад

Here’s kind of a sad fact: Romain Grosjean was actually very close to just staying down in the car because he was at peace with dying. He said something along the lines of he had accomplished everything he had wanted, and he was at peace with death, but then realized that he has a family that is more than likely watching him at that moment so he decided to fight for them and get out of the car.

@swordfish1929 Год назад

I really think you should interview Grosjean (he has a RU-vid channel) not just about his crash and his recovery, the burns were worse than they initially thought, but also his experiences with going to a sports psychologist and how it has helped him over the years. He is a really articulate guy. As for how they don't get knocked out in F1 a lot of it is down to the HANS device although it isn't perfect and if they have a crash exceed a certain level of force they are automatically sent to the medical centre for evaluation regardless of how they are feeling

@matstephens1735 Год назад

@Shahriar019 Год назад

@zeroelus Год назад

I get what Dr Mike was saying about how it's wrong for him to be sending a message by walking towards the ambulance, but if he reached that point, he was already evaluated by at least one doctor on hand who has the power to sit him down and get the rest of the medical personnel on track there to set up a tent so he can be further evaluated in some privacy, with the option on being airlifted to a designated hospital. Having one of the 2 medical helicopters unavailable IS cause for suspending the race event. If he was deemed able to do that (walking towards the ambulance) it's because it was deemed in good enough shape. Would love a Grosjean - Dr Mike Collab. Romain seems like a swell guy, and no dobut it would make a great video.

Grosjean crash was just lots of emotions for everyone. It could almost have been a fatal crash. In an interview, Grosjean said that when he first hit the barriers he struggled to exit the cockpit and almost gave up. He thought about his family and started to fight his way out of the car. That's why the reason he walked to the ambulance, he wanted to show his family that he is ok

Last year at Silverstone, Zhou Guanyu had an INSANE crash. His car flipped multiple times, skidded across the gravel upside down, then smashed against the barrier, went airborne again, then his car got jammed between the barrier and catch fence. He probably wouldn't have survived that if not for the halo. He ended up just walking away with nothing but some minor bruising. I'm so glad the safety in F1 has seriously increased.

@RainbowLoxodon Год назад

Not to mention how long he was stuck upside down before they could even get him out of the car.

@peertje0635 Год назад

The halo did not save Zhou Guanyus life as it is the rollhoops task to keep the drivers safe when upside down. The crash itself wasnt heavy at all compared to other crashes on this list, as only when the car came to a stop in the catch fence the forces on his body peaked into possibly harming levels. The most dangerous part was Zhou not being able to leave the car. It might have looked terrifying but the accident was not that heavy.

@skoomaaddict256 Год назад

@Peertje 06 Nah you're just straight up wrong. The roll hoop was snapped off during that crash. If that halo wasn't there, his head would've hit the ground. Zhou himself has literally said this.

@TheAverageDutchman Год назад

F1 has made insane strides to improve driver safety. The Halo directly saved Zhou Guanyu and Romain Grosjean.

We need to get these hybrid engines out. As soon as hybrid engines were introduced, F1 had its first driver test since Senna in 1994.

1:05 the reason that one marshal was spraying directly at Grosjean is that HE had a CO2 extinguisher, and while CO2 is an asphyxiant, it's also COLD ... he was trying to prevent any major burns while Grosjean extricated himself, AND IT WORKED, as Grosjean only had a few small second degree burns on the back of his hands. As well as that this accident happened on the FIRST LAP, so the car was carrying a FULL FUEL LOAD, and CO2 or Dry Chem powder extinguishers are almost useless against a mass fuel fire ... against liquid fuel you need FOAM, and lots of it, which is why they couldn't put the fire out until the fire truck arrived.

I remember watching that Romain Grosjean crash live and genuinely thinking I just saw someone die. That was like worst case scenario in every aspect, and is a testament to how much goes into the safety of those cars. Go back to before the halo was added and he's dead there for sure. Same with Zhou Gaunyu this season in a crash that flipped his car, dug into the gravel, and was thrown over the safety barrier. Without the halo he's probably dead, but with it he was cleared from the hospital and was back to the track in time to watch the end of the race.

He then threw me over his shoulder and rushed me to the car to drive me to the ER. The whole time in the back seat with my sister, I kept rolling my eyes and insisting that I didn't need to go to the hospital, I was fine. Turns out I had one foot in the grave, needing multiple blood transfusions and packed red blood cells to avoid cardiac arrest.

Hey Mike. I just recently subscribed to your channel. I was watching a video and once it ended, it showed me this video. See, I can relate! I used to be a race car driver in the SCCA racing a FF (Formula Ford) and suffered a near fatal racing crash at, Lime Rock Park. I ended up hitting the tire wall sideways at over 90 mph, and that impact instantly put/left me in a 23 day long coma! When I did finally awake I was extremely confused to say the least. Anyway, my recovery has been nothing short of miraculous, and even my neurologist told me that I was a "miracle" right in front of my father. I can basically do everything again i.e, walk, talk and even drive a car. If you were to ever meet me, then you'd never think that I was in a non-medically coma for 23 days. However, I do still have an issue that no doctor can figure out, not even my neurologist. Being my neurologist will NOT sign off on me to work anywhere again, so that makes my days LONG and boring. I live in Connecticut, and I believe you said in a video that you live in New Jersey? I would love to drive over to see you, pick your brain, or maybe you could refer me to somebody you know?

Fun fact: Ryan Newman's life was very likely saved by a bar that *he* campaigned to have added to the NASCAR roll cage. Called the Newman Bar, it spanned across the windshield portion of the car and tied into an upright in either A-pillar, and made the car significantly more resistant to crushing forces like the one his car underwent when he was hit.

@jessicataylor4071 Год назад

Newman actually has a degree in engineering. Nascar should hire him for designs for the car and safety.

Came here for the Grosjean crash specifically. Drive to survive did an insane job keeping you on the edge of your seat with that and covering it and interviewing everyone. I knew he was alive and I was still holding my breath, eyes locked open, as my brain seemingly forgot that I knew he was ok. That was an insane crash.

@connoredwards7000 Год назад

Although watching it in drive to survive may have been scary, i remember watching it live, and whenever a crash like that occurs in F1 F1 cuts away from that area of the track to make sure the viewers don't see a dead man,. (Learning from Ayrton senna's crash in 1994) And that is one of the most terrifying scenarios i see in F1.

Romain Grosjean went to race Indy. He also has a youtube channel if you're interested. About Robert Wickens, he has improved since the crash, not fully, he still needs assistance to walk, and mostly uses a wheel chair; but he is still racing cars with the controls adapted to the steering wheel. F1 implemented the Halo to prevent debris or other cars to impact the driver's head (the one you showed on the video), and Indy implemented the aeroscreen that is a fully closed screen on the cockpit.

@vagabond142 Год назад

1:54 The HALO safety bar pushed the barrier up and over his head, and the HANS (Head And Neck Support) restrain device decelerated his head gradually instead of his head snapping forward and causing a basilar skull fracture. It was introduced shortly after Dale Earnhardt died from the exact same situation, a high speed direct nose impact into a retaining wall. It became mandatory in almost all motorsports in the mid-2000s, and it has saved a lot of lives since. As to how he survived the fire, that year (2020) the FIA (Federation Internationale du l'Automobile), the governing body of a ton of motorsports, mandated new fireproof race suits that had twice the duration of fireproofing over the previous suits, and can withstand a blaze like that for 60 seconds, minimum. The only parts of the kit that was not of the new material were the race boots and gloves, and he had decent burns of both hands and a light burn on his left foot. The drivers also sit in what is known as the "safety cell," which the entire car is built around. It is made of ultra-strong carbon fiber over an aluminum honeycomb that is then covered in kevlar, before the carbon fiber is put around it and seals it tight. The safety cell is so strong that you can drop a city bus on it at terminal velocity, and the only thing that will happen is that the carbon fiber might be scratched.

The reason Fernando wasn't taken to hospital, because he was feeling okay after the adrenaline has passed, didn't report any major pain, and because his crash telemetry was deemed not severe enough (he was taken to the paddock medical facility) The suits are equipped with an accelerometer in the ear piece, and their gloves had biometrics sensors, so after the car stopped, the data could be read to see exactly how bad of a time the driver has been having. This crash of Fernando's didn't put much more G load on his head than going through a high speed corner at normal race speed would.

Doctors can’t find anything, even though she frequently goes in for check ups.

At 7:46 Mike mentions that in some motorsports the drivers are trained to take their hands off of the wheel and form a kind of "brace position". I believe this is the case with rally drivers, as I have seen details in games such as Dirt Rally. For example, when you crash in first person, the driver places their hands crossed over their chest to brace for the impact. Kind of cool to see that even game devs take safety seriously.

@psychosis1767 Год назад

That brace position depends a lot on what kind of cars you are driving. If it has powered steering, you don't need to take your hands off the wheel as a heavy hit with the suspension will not snap the steering wheel, but the power steering lines instead. If there is no powered steering, you better do that or you might lose some fingers. Usually it is encouraged to do that anyways powered steering or not
