I didn't think it was photo chopped... But, I spent quite a bit of time trying to find an article on the internet about someone getting hit by a race car... I was quite unsuccessful. You'd think such an accident would be documented in a few places...

It's fake. Look a few "feet' below the runner right when he enters the left side of the screen, you can see a box cast around him, obviously inserted into the car wreck video.

Also, he "grows" much t.o fast right before he is hit. The zooming in doesn't affect his sudden "growth". Then he just kind flippidy dips over the guard rail.

No.. go frame by frame. You can clearly see the impact from the guy hitting the door.

1) the runner's feet have no traction. you can see them sliding on the ground like in a bad video game.
2) the runner runs directly toward the camera and just grows in size.
3) the camera immediately pulls away. if some guy got hit like that the camera would have zoomed in.

doesn't cast a shadow, and he can make his feet disappear into the ground


also if you look at the frame when he's supposed to be hit his proportions don't match w/ the car.

There's no real physical way for him to flip like that. He' not made of rubber. His knees would buckle and he'd be under the car or pushed off

EDIT: i suck that's three time's i've edit this damn post

why does everyone think the first guy would have died?

It looks like the car has slowed to about 30 by that point. My guess is he would have some cuts & bruises, a broken ankle or femur (or both) from the initial impact, and maybe a sprained back.
