That is insane, lucky there wasn't more ppl hurt with so many around. At least it would have been instant death and they didn't have to suffer.
Yeah crazy stuff hey.
And these guys weren't that close to the action.
Wowser, sucks to be them. Nothing about that looked safe. The guy running out to give the strap a flick just as the 4by takes off.
Thats messed up.
Wow...... All i can really say is they where doomed from the start...... GQ recovering a landcrab
a grim reminder of what can happen, so sad
we all say how silly it is, and it is! but has anyone been to a winch comp here? you can get that close to the cars while winching, At the last one I was at we were stood at the tree that they used to winch off. When I told my wife to move well away and get behind others so they copped it first people just laughed and stood right next to that tree! And yes I have seen winch ropes snap on a couple of occasions.
Nasty stuff, goes to show just watching events that close is dangerous.
