- Snetterton Race track 31/07/16 British Touring Car Championship Crash on start of the last race of the day: "To use this video in a commercial player or in broadcasts,please email: licensing@storyful.com"
There should've been a catch fence there, good to see spectators instantly came over to the cameraman's aid.
There is a catch fence he was inside fence
It was not the spectators it was myself and a fellow rigger 👍I am the bald one with the blue Brazil T/shirt
this looks like a public lobby in Assetto Corsa
or any public online racing game server
haha!
Mate its nothing to joke about, yes i understand the joke gran turismo lobbies are the exact same i race for a team in one every week, but this cameraman had the impact been 20mph quicker both the driver & cameraman would have been at risk of death
That guy on the ground with the hat was so focused on the car that he nearly got hit by the falling platform.
Great job filming this!
I was there where it happened. They moved camera platform. Back after that total freak accident
"yeah im trained in first aid. i stand around the injured person and repeat the words 'dont move him' over and over again"
Who were you then? I was the guy with the Blue and yellow T/shirt and camo shorts, Rigger for tv company first on scene with fellow rigger Steve. Good job we were there are as always idiots about.
These cameras can zoom in like 2km and they put it 1m from the track lol
Crazy...the chance such an accident happens on that spot is still not that big I think, especially how the cars crashed exactly (yellow car crashes in the wall, bounces back to the black car and all that kinetic energy bounces back to the light green car, flipping it over like it was a coin and last but not least, the red car that hits him, pivoting his car when on top of the fence which accelerates the force of the back of his car against the camera position even more). It could be worse, if there was not a camera construction, the audiance would have the car flipped on them with full speed probably?
great work by spectators !
It was the riggers not the spectators I am the bald one in the blue t/shirt
DAYUM!!!
I've only just seen this on CBS Sports Net. A shame they took out any replays.
I hope nobody got seriously hurt.
had to wait but as we now know everyone was ok
Camera man was dazed and a wee bit shocked
Really great security standards!
What was wrong with the security?
The fence is so low I could step over it. I've seen a car being shot in the air much higher than this fence. As we've seen it's also not that strong.
+5howDown Most circuits are like that. The changes of that happening again are highly unlikely. It was a freak accident. Motorsport is dangerous.
Motorsport doesn't need to be dangerous for the viewer. This is just poor planning and low security standards. I don't mind a low fence if the viewers are more than 5 meters away from the track.
have more security then you can hardly see the race. there is a reason they always tell you that you are at risk going to see a race... if you want to feel safe, stay at home and watch it on the tv.
Good to see the fella is okay. Click, Click, BOOM!
start 1:18
Catchy title😉
Manish
the pace car did that at the Indy 500 one year - took out some scaffolding which had people on and they all fell down like in this?
Alex Martin again...
Yep. He hit us in several races that year too. He was an idiot
leaning tower of tilt
What?
Matt Burfield
tilted
Not much of security between track and spectators and cameraman to be honest.. :o
That's why Motorsport is dangerous.
There is alot of old tracks like this, Zolder, Le mans, Zandvoort, Croft
These tracks were built before high fences were an FIA safety standard thing
i wish i was on his place...
Sure the guy who fell was so happy you kept filming while he was pinned down
1:20
Pastor Maldonado would be proud
Chris Tsui I ate that in an Italian restaurant last week 😋
Just like that !!!
Jaysus!
Camera was probably worth more than the car ;)
It was a Chevy too so the camera is probably faster than it too.
Lmfao.

Should've been a catch fence there to protect the cameraman
Your obsessed with putting up catch fence what do you sell them. Freak accident.
Anyone in the world got fear of car Motor Sports
An interesting afternoon,😂
I was there too
haha , that doesn't look that bad :)
Ставь лойс если с TJ
do you know what you do when you see someone is hurt you film them then put them on you tube
The camera operator was shaken up but otherwise absolutely fine.
Is he ok?
Yeah he was fine
good good
Abbott's been through worse, in 2008, he was involved in a massive crash at Oulton Park while racing a GT4 Ginetta, the car rolled over several times and caught fire. Coincidentally, his teammate, one Kelvin Fletcher of Emmerdale fame (Fletcher is also known for racing in the British GT championship, having recently raced a few Bentleys a couple of years ago) crashed Abbott's car at Goodwood on the same year this Snetterton Race 3 crash occurred. It overshadowed, however, Gordon Shedden's last-lap pass on Rob Collard when Race 3 was restarted after a lengthy barrier repair period which contributed to a late-season push to overhaul and overtake Sam Tordoff in the overall driver's standings, granting Shedden the 2016 BTCC Title as a result.
