This is really old and has been posted a while ago...
What I noticed this time round was the numbers at the bottom... Is this a black box recording 10 sec before impact? Are they the G-forces being recorded? FG - Front G, SG - Side G???? If so, that's pretty cool.

First time I've seen it with the numbers and from stupid videos. Bit of a misnomer really the video is funny, the person is stupid. Remember the great debate from the first posting "Is he still alive?"

one of my mates fell asleep while driving at about 2am and crashed through a lemon stand on the side of the road, he woke up to see planks of wood flying over his car and a tree going through his bonnet

yeah ive had one of those microsleep things before.. driving home from a mates house really late but to cut a long story really short, looked down at my cd player, looked up and i was half in the other lane with a truck right in front of me, i swerved and looked in my rear veiw mirror, and could see the ass end of the truck swerving around, as he must have swerved to miss me too..... ill never drive tired again.... because as far as i can remeber, i couldnt even see a truck on the road when i looked down at my cd player, and htinging back on the whole hting, it scares the shit out of me....
plus that dude who does the microsleep adds and apears on shows about them, we dont need to see any more of his shirts with the clocks all over them.....

geez... all this falling-asleep-while-driving stuff is scary! I've never dozed off, although I've been pretty whacked a couple of times. Once (after a 44-hour uni assignment session) I was driving home at 4am and the road was all wet and shiny, and I could see the streetlights reflected in the road, and it really felt like my car was flying through a tunnel of lights. It was about that stage when I thought 'damn, I shouldn't be driving right now'... luckily I was only 500m from home. Hallucinating while driving is fun.

usually after cruises i'm wrecked, esp if i work before.
doing 5 hours of pizza deliveries around my area then driving down to the shire to do a nasho run isn't that good for you. wourked out i'd pretty much been behind the wheel for 10 hours at the end of the night.
haven't had a microsleep but i know that i've been close to it once or twice after said events. usually just around the corner from home aswell
