Wow, what impact to the dirt. Looks like no loss of life, just bent metal. That photographer probably needed fresh underware.....

Yes, that's been posted a few times. It seems to be the classic 993 crash, floating around on the net. Hurts to watch...

Must have scared the $hit out of the photographer. He is lucky to have seen it coming with the limited site of the camera lense. Hope noboby was hurt. A few 100k down the drain, but that the easy part compared to body parts.

Any sense as to what caused it as the car to the right enters a spin the wheels of the left car never shift. Of course, it all happened in a heartbeat.
