Never Cheap out on a roll cage ........

"The good news is, however, that both Foley and Kouznetsov are OK. As Foley posted to his Facebook feed, "I thought I posted already, but Yuri and I are ok. A little beaten up but nothing major. Thank you so much to everyone for the kindness and support! What a wonderful feeling to feel so loved!""

Well, after the first impact it was prob just a rough ride, the way the hills sloped and the fact they didn't catch nose first had a lot to do with it, I'm willing to bet anywho.

ALOT of energy transferred into the roll, same principle of the tuck and roll when you jump from high places and don't wanna bust ankles lol

Musta been scary thats for sure.

Still, there were a couple HARD hits in there, probably one of the worst rolls ive ever seen. When I watched it the first time, I didnt think there was even a chance they were still alive.

Had the slope been different I agree, they woulda been toast....

That's why there are standards for roll cages. Whole car gets ripped apart but the occupants are still in one piece. Pretty amazing how much punishment that thing took.
