A racing boat driver is somehow okay after a crazy 180 mile-per-hour crash that was caught on camera. The impact caused the boat to disintegrate and crumble in the water. Check it out:
The guy says he just lost control of his hydroplane during the practice run for a powerboat race in Northern California this weekend. This was his first year back in racing after retiring from the sport.
He suffered scrapes and bruises and says he’s still sore. His boat, not surprisingly, is a total loss.
