We go for a run with our new HPI E-Firestorm Flux models. I am recording at the top of the jump...next thing I know, the car smashes into my face. A day to remember for the wrong reasons! You'll notice that my camera takes most of the impact, but I was left with a swollen lip for a few days. It could have been a lot worse!

If you watch closely, just before the car hits me, I take a picture and the screen turns off on the camera I am holding. Here is that picture: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/43666839/DSC01555.JPG

DON'T RECONSTRUCT THIS AT HOME! It was not enjoyable and a complete accident.

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear about your accident and thanks for the friendly reminder. This is why we always have to thread them as dangerous. I had a close encounter on my 21lbs truck i wanted to see if the truck can do a stiff ramp (land) it was about 5-6ft high only but I was on top forgot that I will loose visibility of the truck during the ascend. Of course I know my truck was heavy and no way it will jump high, next thing I knew truck was flying another 6 ft after the ramp it missed me by 4 ft. Damn forgot my laws of physics. So others better dont try this at home

By the way where is that golf course can we fly a quad there take video looks damn nice.
