Wonder What a Flat Tire at 207 MPH Looks Like? Watch This

There’s a reason why the Porsche GT2 is known by sports car enthusiast as the “widow maker.” While most would say that this incident had nothing to do with the actual car, there’s no denying the widow maker is trying to claim another victim one way or another.

The driver on this scary YouTube video by GTBOARD.com, suffers a flat tire at a claimed speed of 207.5 mph. It’s a miracle no one was hurt.

While the footage itself is of extremely good quality, it takes place at night and it’s quite difficult to see what’s happening, besides the many cars the driver passes at high speed, and a few overhead roadsigns here and there. Now, keep in mind, this takes place on the unrestricted section of Germany’s Autobahn, which means what he’s doing is completely legal. As long as he has properly rated tires, that is…

Speaking of tires, you already know what happens next… In fact, it’ll even scare you a bit when it does, it’s so sudden. Definitely a brown pants moment. Oh, and one more thing — if you ever get a flat tire, or have to slow down or pull over on the highway, turn on your bloody flashers, especially at night!
