I'm not saying go street race but that story is BS, how is he going to walk down the street with a broken leg? How do you get ejected with a seatbelt on? I'm pretty sure you would tear around the seatbelt before it broke, and the mounting points are not going to give.

It sucks *** that young people die, especially when its an accident. But why make up stories, the people that are gonig to drive like ******** always will.

You can walk on a broken leg and seat belts are attached to cars not people. If the car rips apart you got no belt

that wasn't in carbon canyon, I am in carbon canyon almost every night at appx3am, I would have seen it, that and there is no point in carbon canyon where you can maintain that high of a speed.

it was on hamner, I heard about it from a buddy of mine who's friends with the dude who died.

You'd be really amazed at what the human body is capable of when its in Shock, and at extreme speeds belts can break, or get stripped out of the frame.

The belt breaking and him getting thrown free is probably why he survived
