I Nearly HEAD-ON CRASHED a GR Yaris // Nürburgring 

Just spoke to the BMW driver, his tyre exploded (that you can see on the video actually, I thought it was a broken car part). We both are thankful for how things turned out in the end.

the intro clip alone raised my blood pressure by about 50%

I'm pretty sure you can't park there

I'm too busy judging them for getting out of the car in the middle of traffic to judge you for not seeing them

WHY DO THEY GET OUT! DARWIN AWARD

The calmest call to track security😂 “ZUPERDANKECIAO!” 10:09

If something like this happens, in general... Stay in your fucking car. Modern car, big strong thing designed to protect the squishy flesh inside it. Squishy flesh standing in middle of road/track, bad things happen!

Funny you should say about the rear mirror because I did the same as I was watching the video.

Nowadays people still getting out their cars in totally unsecurity ways, God! Wait for YELLOW OR RED FLAG!

There is something many people are not taking into count - being in the comfort of your home, being "prepared" that something will happen next couple of seconds, being able to rewind, watch it again, rewind, watch it again and then analyze - this is not how the real life works. You have one chance, many more "inputs/distractions" and have to analyze way more data, you are usually not prepared and have way less time to react. I often check some situations on my camera and they are so different than what I "saw" and "remember".

The proper: "you can't park there mate"

Can confirm: Never go for that last lap ^^ Also, if your tire is blown, you can still move the car slowly out of a precarious situation like that. Better risk a scratch on a probably already scratched rim and prevent a crash.

09:32 w0o0ow0o0o0wo0o0wo0o0ow0wow0ow0wow0o

Props to you Misha, was an incredible save, even with the wide angle of the Go Pro when entering the Carousel i believe you could only see a few pixels of the BMW so you dont need to explain yourself for that

2:48 dude, you were able to brake and start manouvering before your mouth started to move - even if it was a "late" reaction it was an absurd godspeed fast move you performed. At 1:56 you can see flashing indicators exactly in the moment the "wowowo" starts, which means the pedalwork and decision to steer was done way before all of that. That's awesome!

1. It took the guy 35seconds to call in the crash. 💥 thats blazing fast. 2. The BMW left some rubber on the circuit + some debris. Maybe his tire blew up in the carrousel.

Car was so hard to spot until the last second on the video, the colour blends in with the track and he doesn't have lights on either...not to mention he was around a corner too - you did very well to avoid that!

Its the new Karussell VIP Parking Slot

With the massive windshield pillars that are typical of modern vehicles, there's no way most drivers would have seen that car until they were less than 30 meters away. The GR Yaris is an awesome car but does not have great forward visibility.

I was not ready for that intro! Unless your car is completely disabled, use your hazards and move it out of the travel path. They did the worst possible thing getting out of their vehicle after spinning out at the worst possible place. Excellent reflexes Misha!

wow they're just standing on the track!!!!!! stranger than fiction.

There are a lot of things a driver is cautious about when on a racetrack. People standing on the track in the middle of a corner is usually not one of them.

"Never go for one last lap" is definitely wisdom to live by. Its saved us from being out during two track-closing incidents. Its good you were in something small enough to fit through the gap, glad everyone is ok.

Passenger sounds like Toad from Mario Kart.. Lol. Ow-wowowowowow

They should add more location markers so people who don’t know the name of every corner can still call in oil spills etc

I am relieved to see that you are both safe and sound. That would have been a nasty accident. Especially the dude getting out, i do not even want to think about what could have happened.

Hören & Sehen :D absolut gut

Misha breathing heavily... Code brown for sure... oooof good save, man.

I learned at a young age racing motorcycle you never call last lap lol. Something ALWAYS happens!

Wow!! Very good driving to avoid an accident Misha. So glad you didn't hit the other vehicle and everyone is ok.

9:30 This dude STEPPED OUT OF THE CAR???? wtf. Ive seen that so many times... what is wrong with people?

The Corolla and Yaris are superb engineered cars and clever made, check out the Car Care Nut, breakdown on the Corolla GR, Toyota just took standard chassis and upgraded using much of inventory parts. Even the big brakes are fitted on standard hubs with brackets.

You know the memes with the phrase in the background: ...and that's when he realized he was screwed

That little Yaris really delivers! Amazing performance and it looks really cute 😂. You were very lucky in the carousel, you really never know what can happen in the next second!!

bloody hell Misha. Super human reactions there buddy. Thank god you pulled that off.

Man, I love that VX220. I really hope we get to see it soon! Glad everyone's okay!

Just finished watching your close call compilation and then this shows up haha. Good you guys are all ok!

It's right what you say about the camera view and the drivers view. Parts of the ring are very steep, and the view is blocked by the roof line sometimes. Also, if you are using 5 point harnesses. You are basically hoping the coast is clear because you can't actually see.

You don't have to justify what people might say to you about it, There's absolutely no blame to you for it.

Nice save Misha, you are the goat

I think that shaved 1 year off my life with the HR increase

What did they think was gonna happen in the process of getting out of their car in a place like that!? It looks like the black car had an even closer call too...

'You canr't park there m8' 😂

Misha turned into Borrat when he entered the carousel 😂

Bloody BMW driver didnt even had the blinkers on.

And that was an amazing and precise reaction from Misha. Good job! Everybody is safe and accident averted.

Daaaamn, that was close. Got my heart racing too.

That would a near HIT... not a near miss :-) i'm glad you're all okay

I think the saying from the game Interstate 76 matters a lot here... "Don't get out of the car." He may have dodged you, but he almost got run over by another guy who dodged around the outside of his car in that corner.

The stuff of nightmares. Glad you're able to talk about it from the car park, and not the hospital.

I can happily say that I saw the car standing in the carousel at the same time as you on first watch. As I was also looking to see if the other car was going to jump into the carousel after you!

Good catch and correction Misha 🙏

great heads up driving misha!

9:26 is where the accident almost happened. you're welcome

I don't know you Misha, but I really enjoy these videos and appreciate you posting them for me to watch :D

glad everyone was safe. Also was it just me or did that look like a kid that got out of passenger door at 2:56

Damn this view of my Mondeo. I didnt saw him too

The driver sits on the left, in that corner using your head and shifting your upper body position to accommodate it [if needed] the side window allows you to see a little bit more on the left than what a centre mounted camera would but saying that, I don't know how the A pillar is affecting 1/4 vision in that car. However one thing is clear if you lowered your speed a bit more to make sure that Toyota isn't going to drop into the Karussell in front of you instead of sending it and just hoping they would, then you'd have been able to have your eyes forward at lot earlier instead of the focus being on him. In the end, it's a track day with rules and situations more similar to driving on the public road than driving in a closed event. I've seen another video from you with a similar incident here into the Karussell before, instead of fully committing to waiting for the car ahead to communicate their intent you sent it anyway. Just take it as a warning to be more careful. You get 9 lives if you're lucky.

DO NOT GET OUT !!!! i cant repeat this enough, you are safe in your car, you are dead outside.. STAY IN YOUR CAR !!

We passed him also "close" today ....thx for sending the warning so fast !

I was checking the side mirror too …. This risk could easily be resolved when there’s a passenger on board: one person looks ahead, the other constantly looks via te mirror …. It helps if the passenger is the one using the mirror, but he might be sick after turn 8

I'm reading a lot of comments on the gu leaving his stranded car. I've done quite a few laps on the Nordschleife, approximately 500. It might be stupid to get out the car in that exact moment (when cars are coming at you, which you can definitely see and hear), but on the other hand I would totally not wait in the vulnerable car til a yellow phase or whatever. This is NOT a race with marshalls everywhere and knowledgeable drivers. I would wait til I see/hear nobody and run behind the barrier. Or at this spot even on the grass side as there is a lot of space there. Just my 2 cents with common sense.

9.33 9.37 on replay ;) salutari !! Atentie maxima la drum !! GL HF !!

HOLY SHIT...LUCKY

I could barely notice the car even with the wide angle lens. Great job🙌

Inner borat woo woo wee waa activated. Great reaction to avoid a massive accident. Also these gr yaris cars are bloody fast 😳😳

lots of comments about "BMW driver should have done this or that" when panic sets in, people make mistakes.

What....what 😮😮 i thought by the video thumbnail that might be clickbait. Then i realized that Misha is pretty serious with his content. Great content bro keep it up. ❤❤❤

I remember driving on a curved road in a parking lot, and there was a pedestrian walking at the exact speed and angle that he remained hidden by the A pillar until I was almost to him. Luckily speed was slow so there was no issue stopping. But it was quite a surprise because he basically appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the road.

Words of wisdom in regards to not doing that "last lap"...

That was hard to see, always have a safety margin, I always say “ I drive at 80% I save 30% for human error” if you need help with the math, it takes 110% to make a champion 🏆🚀 well done mate ❤️

Just seeing the thumbnail I was quite on the edge if should even watch this. I am glad I did.

2:28 also car is grey, just like the road

9:30 for the near miss

That's the ultimate example for your continuous preaching: eyes on the road, never look at cars passing you or passed by you :D I will definitelly be fully focused on the road ahead and only briefly check mirrors for faster cars behind, when i come to the Nordschleife.

The A-pillar on certain cars can be very dangerous. I remember driving a Volkswagen Scirocco lots of years ago when I took my license. We were coming up to a roundabout, and there was a car inside it that I just did not see but the instructor saw, so he hit the brakes for me. The A pillar on that car was so terrible for my height so it was literally blocking most things to the side of me. When you have to really lower your head and tilt it forward and backwards and side to side to see other traffic it becomes ridiculous. The roof on the car was too low and the A pillar too wide = lethal.

Jesus Christ. ARE THEY INSANE?!?

Wow, thank god for your reflexes and experiences. It could go biiiig wrong....

Hey sorry for maybe confusing you on the track. The white corolla was me and my dad (it was our first time on the nurburgring)

That was a freaking jumpscare. Did not expect that

I think the most important is that nobody got hurt, nobody is at fault, BMW's tyre exploded. some things are just out of human control. You can just see how important reaction time is in general, 1 second slower reaction time would have had a way different outcome.

0:45 socks will always be there for you

Are the flashers a safety thing when you brake? It all worked out good driving

The owner takes it easy 😂 nice guy

Gotta remember the "Hören & Sehen" thing 😂

WHAT ARE THOSE!!!

Well... that was pretty damn scary! Glad everyone's fine

STILL crazy to me that people question you for much of anything like, "How didn't you..." When they don't do this level of driving...cause...you know...most of the entire world doesn't.

That could have been a fatality. Insane that the driver got out like that.

It looked like a blowout of a rear tire.

9:29 that's the widest view of the track before entering the corner, and there's no spun car in sight...

9:33 wOOWowowowoWOWOowowowowowowowowowowow

HEART IN MOUTH & BUTT EGGS LAID .......... Later Mate!! You're inner Bruce Lee car control was (albiet enforced situationally), was on point. As scary as that moment was, if this isn't box office content (& NO I do not wish for such situations to happen again - for the same reasons you have explained before), I'd hate to see what would be considered as such. However, I'm genuinely glad all parties are safe and escaped a worse situation. Keep Up the excellent work regardless.

Coincidentally watching 1:52 (see dash clock) at 18:42-18:43 my local time, what a timing! 😅

Good driving Misha!!!

Great looking car, I especially love that blue.

Probably the worst spot to be getting out of the car after spinning out

Instructions unclear. Car is now called HeRNSHerN

At least you're not lying on the thumbnails content 😹 but what was bro doing here thinking it was a good idea 💀

Just glad everyone is okay. Phew!
