I'm not a massive fan of drag racing, but i know it to be possible to crash while going in a straight line. This strip-side photographer captured an example of this in some detail.

I was about to say "what an idiot" - but then I remembered the time I was snorkling in Oz, and a couple of sharks came along - so I kept taking photos with my underwater camera instead of trying to get the feck out of there.

Something about a camera seems to strip people of their natural instinct for self-preservation [rofl]

That man...

....has big stainless steel balls.

I'm not sure if he deserves a runner up darwin award or a pat on the back.

Amazing shots though. I'm really amazed they were even in FOCUS.

Yeah, and should have used a bigger aperture, as the shutter speed is obviously not high enough to avoid motion blur.

over exposed? not really, considering the subject matter. There is only 1 possibly two where its even a visible attribute, why not point these elements out with reference to the images if there is more than a few?

The best picture isn't a picture he took, it's the picture someone else took of him taking pictures!
