Notice how he was starting to get up while the car was still airborne? Wow. Overall, I'd say thats pretty lucky. If he were still in the seat when it ejected . . .

Wow! I'd say that car was a freakin death trap. Um...seats aren't just supposed to fly out like that. I'm wondering how in the world he had his belt secured to the car. Obviously not that well...seeing as though he was ejected and should have been crushed by the car.

But, yeah...he's taking a knee just watching his car get torn to bits as it kept falling apart....lucky, sure. After putting it together like that, VERY lucky.

It looks as if he actually came out the passenger window.

That ejector seat was money well spent. And people laughed at him for putting it in a drag car...
