You Couldn't Do This Twice If You Tried
I have no idea why this happened. Bad pace notes, a navigator who was distracted by a bit of tail-out recovery. But no matter what started this incident at a Finnish road rally, the end is truly spectacular, and frightening.
All the information I can find indicates that there were no serious injuries as a result of the crash. Still, it’s worth noting that this is one less air-cooled 911 on the market. You can’t pay too much for them; you can only buy them too soon. A special mention goes to the guy who observes the accident then goes back to looking at his phone… I didn’t realize they let the corner workers at NJMP take European vacations!*
* Just kidding! Don’t fail to drag me out of a burning 911 because you’re angry I wrote this**

Perhaps the driver was an old motocrosser and was simply planning to use the concrete area as a berm? When he noticed the transition was a little sharp he locked the brakes. The answer to why no one jumped in to save the driver/navigator? Everyone knows these little VW's are watertight and will float.
Do not try this in a Corvette.
"I don't know how the judges will score that one, Greg. I think he was just a little past vertical when he hit the water but, you're the expert, how would you score it?"
