Rumor has it that Ford had a field full of the remains of ex-McRae cars. He was either flat out or not driving, nothing in between. His best escape was when he launched his car into a forest and landed on the top of some young pine trees. The trees bent over, deposited his car into a field and he drove off. Such talent.

And talking of helicopters, Dave Richards flew his back from Europe that same day when he heard the news and it developed an electrical problem. He landed just seconds from a disaster of his own!! I used to love doing aerial photography from a chopper, but those things don't take prisoners......
