Happened super fast. Glad all is well.
My Uncle used to race years ago. Exciting.
Great post👍🏻
The guy at the back needs a serious word with his mechanic
Wow... glad they are OK 👌
Gotta love some of you keyboard warriors. These guys are at least out there doing what they love and not sitting behind a computer being negative.
Crazy how easy they flip over, if any wake at all you're pretty much down.
Looks like big red didn't want to slow down or even turn for that matter.
Someone was carrying too much speed into turn 1
Nice job guys.
So Scary! Great filming tho, you are very talented!
Is this the demolition derby for boats?
So can you tell me who the rescue divers jumping from that helicopter work for? Because that right there is not for the weak.
I’m not entirely sure, at the races most people referred to them as the angels but I couldn’t find them online. I did find an organization (Dark Side Rescue) when searching for the Race World Offshore rescue divers and they have done races for them before, so it is possible that they were the ones in this video. Dark Side’s Website: www.darksiderescue.com
New a guy that was an Airforce rescue jumper. Think most of them get their training in the services, Coast Guard etc.. Then guess a bunch of them found an opportunity after leaving the service. Don’t know the name of the company but bet an Internet search would turn it up
several got cut off........rookie night?
Got drowned and caught a chine in the corner off lead boat wake.
That was a STOOOPID Move!! 🤦♂️
Engine failure 😣
Zagged when should of zigged
That was him he dose super cat now
quá tuyệt vời
My papa rob unnerstall flip!
All okay!?!?
Yes, thankfully everyone involved in the crash were okay. The red/yellow boat #17 Team Allen Lawn Care even went on to finish 3rd in the race.
@@bingzirkelbach Wow! Thanks!
What happened to the guy who cane out when it rolled. He was clearly at the surface behind the roll over and the following boats drove over him. When anything like that happens full course red fir fucsake
That wasn’t a human, it was just a black piece that came off the boat. It looked like it might have been part of the outboard housing or something. They still did a full course red flag after the wreck and they restarted the race about 50 minutes later. It may also be worth noting that this boat class (and most of the others) use closed safety capsules that keep the drivers inside the boat in events like this. If you’re interested into what one looks like, here is a link to a short training demo: facebook.com/watch/?v=797446577556387
@@bingzirkelbach great but in my world a full course red stops the vessels and or cars not happy with that, looking like no racing room no rules bad. Lucky that wasn't a fatality
Looks like a form of Russian roulette to me…
What the fuck happened to maintain your lane. Holy shit these guys should be banned before ppl die.
Typical when you got a bunch of rich inexperienced egomaniacs pretending to be boat racers. Its obvious more than half that field have no idea what their doing, their want of being a big shot racer will get someone killed one day..
All of them
all of them... what?
@@a_rabid_raccoon you heard me right.
money buys boats- not talent
Plenty of talent. They all wanted that tight line around the pin. That’s just racing.
Exactly!! Rich wannabes racers..
@@gc4644 Rich, maybe. Wannabe? Not in the least.
@@bradchristy8429 dude, 1st rule in boat racing that every racer is taught is "the throttle works both ways" (I'm a 2nd generation racer). Going into the 1st turn in any category of boat racing is always tight and exciting, but there is no excuse for what I saw happen there! Those guys haven't a clue what their doing, I've seen better driving and critical decision racing ethics from 12 year olds racing in a full field of hydros!
@@gc4644 Ah…. The peak of ignorance. Gotta love it. A little bit of knowledge makes one think they know everything. Racing on salt water, with its seas, is completely different than flat water. Everything that happened in this video is a direct result of the rough water. They had already used the throttle in “both ways”. They weren’t going that fast, as is evident in the lack of real impact between the two boats that got together. You’re full of crap.
Just Like Mustangs ...go Straight
Those poor rich boys will be complaining now..these wealthy magnate races are completely out of touch with what’s going on in the world right now
