Crazy Video

Its some good driving and as always theres a fair bit of luck involved, but every rally driver knows how to get their car back on all 4 wheels when its tipping sideways like that. Iv seen many videos of different drivers doing it. The only difference is that when he righted it the first time it went to tip the other direction...

Yeah that was sick. The rally drivers know they have to turn their wheels into the flip in order to pop the car back up and not flip. Twice in a row however, sick reaction time!
