Rollin along...

Thought this may be appropriate for the War Stories section 
On Saturday night, went over to a mates house and had a bit of a thrash in his paddock basher (LC Torana). We were mucking around in the paddock out the back of his house, had the stereo happenin, getting all psyced up and went for a big drift. Doing say 50-60 km's sideways, I was passenger and we both had our seat belts on, and I had my arm out the window holding onto the roof.
The car go so damn sideways and then all of a sudden, the rear left wheel dug into the ground and flipped the car over. Since I had my arm out side the car, on the roof, when the old torana rolled, she rolled onto my arm and crushing it between the roof and the ground (lucky it was dirt/grass). Then it started to roll over to the drivers side, that gave me enough time to pull my arm back inside the car, then it layed flat on the roof.
A mate (who was also paddock bashing) pulled up next to us helped me undo my seat belt and slide out. My arm was as big as my leg, it was so damn swallen. Then the shock kicked in, and i was hurlin everywhere ! Yeah I can admit it I don't care 
Waited in Hospital for 2 hours just to get the all clear and was sent home with some pain killers.
Won't be doin that again for a while  .
Got away with just bad bruising and my arm swallen up. Not even a fracture!! So there you go, you can roll a 1 tonne car on my arm and it wont even break! hehe

Yeah it's funny, but it's also the reason there is a law prohibiting people from sticking their limbs outside of cars.

I did that while I was fanging around a dirt buggy, f'er just rolled on me...being so open my first reaction was to put my arms out to stop me like I would on a bike...then I'm like "What the FUCK am I doing???" So I pulled my arm in, just as the buggy tipped.
Damn lucky, was close because I scraped my arm on the cage and the ground(!) as it came over. Caned like hell and I'd bruised my arm on the cagge...better than breaking it though!
