So I was watching it live on TV yesterday morning...when it happened live you saw the car at the top of the screen going into the steel barrier and exploding. Then they didn't show any footage of anything to do with the crash for like 5 minutes. I said to my wife that for sure he died, that's why they're not even showing it again. Finally they did once they determined he was OK, and I couldn't believe it.
I couldn't believe the footage of him maneuvering himself out of the crashed cockpit that was completely on fire and pushing his hands on the fiery edges to climb out...it's no wonder his hands were burnt there.
