#DashCam #StreetRacingCrashes #RandyPobst
Imagine being at home and a friend sends you this and goes like: "Bruh, Randy Pobst watched us crash way back when". Priceless
🤣
LoL
Epic, right?? Haaa
You know someone Is a good story teller when you start laughing before you start the video. Can you get Randy on the next AMA?
ya id love to see him on the next ama too
Or maybe you're just a psychopath for laughing at a high speed crash before knowing if the occupants are OK. Just sayin' lol
Glad you liked it, Acrvids, it was wild
@@karlcarlsburg9641 I feel like if someone died they wouldn't be reporting on the incident.
@@CJthehobbyist didn't say anything about death. I still think its a little odd that someone would be laughing from hearing about someone getting T-boned with no other information given yet. Just my opinion.
Imagine being the idiots that wrecked in front of Randy Probst while racing on the highway
And then he comes on Vin Wiki and makes fun of them! I really hope the people who crashed find out that this video exists.
I would hang my head in shame....
This was literally my first thought lmao
What's his UA-cam channel?
Randy: so they pass me and they slow down
Me: yeah they are going to roll race.
“There’s gotta be a name for it...”
I love how innocent Randy is to not even know the term roll racing on the streets. (He’s probably heard it associated with organized drag race events.) But he knows enough to know it’s so common there’s gotta be a term for it.
@@stephen3164 he’s so professional he has no idea what the amateurs call it.
This man is an absolute legend, one of my favorite story tellers, and glad he's started his own thing.
Randy tells stories like an 8 year old mixed with a dude in a barbershop and you know what....I love it!
Imagine being the idiots who lost control in front of Randy freakin' Pobst, the embarrassment i'd feel oh my goodness lmao
if they even realiced who he was at the time.
@@KristofferEk oh they definitely didn't, but if they watch this channel they're probably pissing themselves
What's Randy's channel?
Randy Pobst: "Right in front of me. From me to you!"
Me: "Randy, you're like 3000 miles away! That power slide has got to be a new world record!"
😂😂😂
All the people surprised it was the G8 t-boning the Mustang clearly have never met a Holden driver before
Australian Mustang drivers, Holden drivers. LOL
It was a preemptive strike on the Mustang
@@RustyZipper Ford vs Holden, way its always been lol
@@mycosys
Was.....
Ford won.
Holden just packed up and quit.
Its Roll racing randy. Love these stories
You can tell how Randy is a true honest car enthusiast by how excited he gets
Love the man
I've given my SD card to a cop at the scene of an accident where the driver at fault was lying to the cop to make it appear as the other guy that caused the wreck. I told the cop that I didn't see everything, but my dashcam did. I also had my laptop and was able to make a copy for the other driver as well. Talk about a very grateful guy and the person that was actually at fault was pissed. The cop was able to watch the footage right there with my laptop.
Moral of the story, never lie to a cop. I'm sure he got more tickets than he would have if he hadn't lied LOL.
Man that is awesome to hear! You'd be surprised how many car accidents don't have a driver at fault ruled because people lie and sometimes it's just your word against theirs.
I personally like the idea of governnment mandated crash cams in all new vehicles. Though I imagine many people are not ok with this idea.
The hero we need.
@@roundearthshill248 infringement. Will never pass or be upheld in the US.
@@kilroy4843 law enforcement can already pull vehicle data from a vehicle involved in an accident....plus many busy intersections already have traffic cameras installed for the purpose of having crash footage to review.
My dash cam has saved me so much that I can't imagine not having one at this point. I have gotten out of bogus tickets and citations, I have captured some really stupid stuff and I have also ended a law suit before it even started by just showing the camera to the other person's lawyer. I have given my video to police who were investigating a big rig crash and it helped them find out who was at fault. I had one on my motorcycle and it saved me 10 times over when police officers "mistakenly" pulled me over for many different things. I never drive without one.
Randy is the best story teller outside of Ed on this channel. Talk about experience all over the automotive world. Absolutely love when he's in the chair.
On today's episode of Vinwiki:
when Randy Probst tow vehicle is faster than the local tuner cars
Randy just driving away is a whole mood of mine🤣😂
I love how much energy he has in every video!
I see a sudden traffic problem, TURN ON THE FLASHERS to warn vehicles behind you
street racing ...HP numbers are higher than functioning brain cell count.
It can be done safely. I think anyone running 10.99 or quicker shouldn't street race though. Just my opinion.
Randy, you don't need a dashcam. Your way of telling the story made me experience being there...way better than watching a dash cam video.
Randy's stories are awesome he has so much excitement
Any content containing Randy Pobst is going to be the best content
Should have reenacted this with HotWheels so we had a better idea.
"The gas will only help you crash faster." That is, as long as you aren't driving a Porsche 911....
I have seen some incredible crashes. Guy doing over 100 drives straight into a bridge embankment and flips over the railing of the bridge and lands upside down in a creak about 1 in the morning. He was dead on impact. Saw 2 cars head on at a rail crossing on a sharp corner. All the people in both cars head were laying on their cheats. Guy with a car full comes flying past me on a wide cruising corner and hits black ice. Spins the care 5-6 times no more than 3 feet in front of me doing 90km/h. I remember the driver flashing into view several times as the headlights lit him up. He hit the cliff face, scooted across the highway and landed in a lake with 5 people in the car. Everyone survived. Was spectacular though.
I love the sound effects lets here more by him very entertaining
I feel like Randy is the grandpa I never had and always wanted. I too want him as your next AMA guest!
As someone who has a dashcam, I 100% understand the struggle of missing crazy stuff when you don't have it up.
Always enjoy Randy's stories!
Love listening to Randy's stories!
Most winters, I manage 50-60 ski days - including the year I broke my arm mid December. Since I got my GoPro in 2017, I've filmed about two-thirds of my days on the slopes, among them I hit my favorite jump on my favorite run dozens of times. But I didn't have my GoPro the day I broke my arm. Now that I'm healed and over it, my biggest regret of that day is not having the ramp, the jump, or the landing on film.
Murphy’s Law of Action Cameras
What an experience Randy has shared. I once got clipped on the 101 freeway did half an 8 sound up next to the center divider which luckily I didn’t flip. Hit that gas peddle on my 4 banger to power through the slide and was able to clear the traffic and go to the shoulder safely.
3:52 Pow‼️💥 Right in the kisser‼️
He had me dying 😂
Randy is a great story teller!
You have to love randy!!!
This is why people really should only do this on a dragstrip
The world is your race track if you see it or not
Real races leave it all on the track. Wannabes race on city streets and highways.
They should have a small driving class that is required to own any 2 door car with more than 300 hp ( I know there’s others ). Maybe just a one or two day class that would be easy to complete that would teach how to correct oversteer, fishtails, and traction loss.
@@zgpn-3015 yeah. We need more regs and bureaucracy. No thanks.
Had to watch that Intro for atleast 10 times
3 Honda Civcs, with Spoon engines!!
I came looking for this comment! Made my day.
At the 5:17 Randy needs a Tshirt with that emotion and the word "Booooom".... underneath it.....hahahahahaa
Have two dash cams, actually. One for the front, and one for the back. While a front camera can still show when you've been rear-ended, a rear-facing camera can show some additional relevant details.
Put your mouse pointer at 3:53 and 5:16 and click it over and over. I love Randy's story telling ability. lol
Good call, I love doing s#!t like that!
randy s a living legend
That was the most realistic skid noise in the intro ever haha
Randy Pobst, Chris Harris and Matt Farah would be my dream team topgear' ish show. I could listen Randy narrate driving/car situtations for hours!
Randy Pobst is a national treasure
Best VinWiki intro goes to Randy
In no small way... Randy Pobst has helped many of us through 2020
Psh, I’ll take Randy’s phenomenal storytelling over a dash cam video any day!
World would be a safer place with no mustangs & swift semis on the roads.
it's not the car that's the problem it's the drivers. also tesla semi will be fast
@@johnhunter7244 Not if they want the advertised range.
I live right off I-40 in NC @ the 15-mile marker from TN.
Great video Ed, and story Randy, thank you!
P.S. I subbed to your channel Randy. I didn't know you had a channel or I would have subbed sooner.
Randy has participated in a lot of races in his life but clearly never a roll race before, lol. But what are the chances of such happening right in front of the Randy Pobst?! I wish he had stopped, those drivers would have felt even more foolish than they already did when RP walked up and said, "You should have lifted and counter steered... you idiot!" ;)
He contradicts himself when explaining his take on things then rants on it like a delusional old man.. and its kinda sad to see all the people enthralled by this story..
@@ballistic02 well the man is sort of a legend and people like to listen to legends talk
Watch my “the Racing Line“ videos please! Ha ha
DK Diesel 🤔🤔🤔
@Bradley Hollon Thx for the back up. I am delusional sometimes, and certainly not young. 😳
I'm addicted to VinWiki!!
Randy is probably my favorite guy on this channel.
Pobst for president!
Street racing is soooooo cool, boy howdy! Those guys must get so much tail. All of us can only wish to be like them!
"Fast & Furious" fans impress Randy Pobst, a real driver, with their "Skills"
My father in law and I were in a headon rollover accident. Not even for the accident itself a dash cam would have been hilarious for the audio after the fact. We are sitting upside down in a boxtruck talking. To eachother then to people who stopped to help. One thing would to find out how long we were there. It seemed like five minutes but had to been twenty minutes at least. We weren't close to any town but by the time we climbed out of the truck out of the ditch we landed in there were five fire trucks, three ambulances, maybe six police cars. Even the towns near us wouldn't have had that much equipment in one place.
Glad you seem to be A-OK. Good story also.
"When in trouble get off all the pedals" Indeed the thing to do, most inputs will only make things worse unless you really know what you're doing and do the exact right thing. Of course like anything else there are a few exceptions but very few people are driving cars like those.
FWD i use when in doubt power out, everything else I get off the pedals. I no driver like Randy
Randy is one of my favorite guests.
Randy needs his own show...the best!
Maybe, but I'd love seeing him on Top Gear with Chris Harris. They'd just need 1 more driver/host.
@@dct124 Ozzy Man is my nomination
He has his own UA-cam channel if you want to check it out.
"Death wiggle"
Just the intro made it worth the view
This dude is a legend
Ive seen enough crazy stuff over the year to want a dash cam, and finally put one in this year. Love that it can help in an insurance claim, and captures that denali plowing a trashbag at 65mph (really happened).
also got a squirrel falling from a tree, a rare sight.
In my first drivers school they always said "in a speed both feet in". Last year on the way to a Lemons race, a ricer kiddie in a STI wanted to show us his skill as we took an exit - he passed on the shoulder then immediately loses control in the following turn and POW - hits the guardrail and the entire rear suspension leaves the unibody... Here in TX, this is a daily occurance. I had borrowed the truck, so no dash cam :(
As a Motorcyclist, in Australia, yeah, I've seen some crazy stuff.
Aussie 👍
@@randypobstofficial Enjoy Dash Cam Owners Australia. And get in on the game of: "Where's the accident going to come from?" before it happens. Just watch out though, Australian, so the language can get a bit up there.
I loved the 90s Firehawk series, the only time you'll ever see an Oldsmobile Achieva on a race track 😂
I have a similar story involving a Topaz, a Celica, and me. Topaz hit a concrete divider, pushed into a speeding Celica, and caused me to have to Road Warrior my way around flying parts and leaking coolant. Celica was completely wrecked, every window smashed. Topaz kept going without a wheel until it stopped a kilometer later, kids playing in the grass ditch (they were fine, so was the driver) and then there was my Hyundai Pony, with flakes of red Toyota paint and coolant mist all over it. I came extremely close to hitting both of them. The full story is on a Hyundai forum from about 2003 or so.
5mil hits on RP’s channel if he had that vid I swear! Great story without actually vid tho because he told it! Awesome!
How embarrassing, to loose your shit in front of a respected racer like Randy
Super clever to keep going when you're towing a racecar. Never know what the police would accuse you of lol. Great story! 😆👍
Wouldnt have stopped towing a race car either.
insane mustang *"SREET"* racing crash
Even if you have a dashcam, it can randomly decide to not work. I had a situation last night where saving the footage wouldve been nice but i discovered that my dashcam didnt record the entire ride home for no reason
3:50
3:52
5:16
All you need
Imagine gaining conscious back after the crash and the guy see randy walking up to him if randy got out to check on him
Randy Pobst is the best.
Got a dash cam a few years ago because I lived in the crime-ripe town of Pueblo, CO. Not 6 months later, another driver failed to yield at a stop light, and hit me head on. I got the other driver's insurance information and all that normal jazz, but the police refused to come out to write up an accident report. Come to find out, the person who hit me was in a rental car because she had been in an accident 24hrs earlier. After the accident, I spent a whole month trying to get the other party's insurance to claim liability, but they wouldn't because the driver who hit me never called her insurance to report the accident. Instead, they ended up ditching the rental car in some neighborhood and skipped town. Ended up calling our state's Insurance Bureau and sending them the footage of the accident in order to get their insurance company to actually do something.
I was driving for Uber when I was hit, so I was able to claim lost wages on top of the cost of the accident (my car was totaled). Originally paid $2700 for my car, and they paid me $4500 to replace my car and $2000 in lost wages. I then bought the car back for $450, spent around $500 at a U-Pull yard, and the car is as good as it was before.
Love the passion of Randy telling the story!... PUUUUUUUUUUM!!!! Hahaha
I like Randy’s telling the story better than seeing a video. More dramatic like a comic book reading....
Mustang Says - NEVERLIFT
1:09 isnt that basically the plot of Cars?
*Randy stomps on floor*
*camera prays for dear life*
Got a dash cam in every vehicle I own. No wrecks yet but have cought some crazy stuff
I 100% believe any story regarding crazy accidents/driving in Tennessee. Will never forget making my way down I-24 on my way back to GA during a daytime torrential downpour where you still couldn't see more than 1.5 car lengths in front of you.... someone "merged/cut me off" at 70+MPH into the far left lane, fishtailed, overcorrected and was literally doing 360's down the interstate at ~50mph for a good 2 seconds before sliding into the grass center. If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it.
Imagine slowing down all the traffic behind you to set up a race just to embarrass yourself in front of all those people
I just installed a dash cam a few weeks ago. I knew you could get some good shots like I've seen weird stuff going on b4
LMAO.... This crash made news around here. Street racing on 40 causes major accident... 😂😂😂 Hilarious that randy got to see it live.
Where is here?! Lol
@@lolhi5964 Knoxville Tn. It happened leaving Knoxville, like headed towards the I-40/I-75 split but before there. There is a weigh station for semi trucks on a long stretch of straight interstate between exits. It's very popular for "trips to mexico".... This was one of those trips.
That really happened to really me !
Probst could tell a story about comparing different types of roses and make it sound exciting!
Another great Randy video
I generally agree with coming out of the gas when things go bad. Just don't do it too suddenly like I did one fateful day when I began to drift unintentionally. The rear gripped up way too fast and the car transitioned really hard and I spun out. Also skid pan training makes a huge difference.
Randy is so excited when someone other than him does the crashing...lol j/k
So, sees a guy have a possibly fatal crash, possibly two, keeps driving. Great guy that Randy.
Surprised the mustang didn't t-bone the g8 instead
Clearly never met a Holden before
Preemptive strike
I like Randy I miss head to head by motor trend on UA-cam
He needs to share some stories about the champion race days
Like the time I won the championship and passed out on camera doing winner’s interview? Loved Champion Racing team and the Audi RS6 in World Challenge GT. And Rest In Peace owner and terrific guy Dave Maraj 😔
I subbed, Randy. I subbed.
I have had dash cams for years now. Almost all of my driving is recorded. I know if I get into an accident, 99% it was not me that caused it. I made sure to have one in any work vehicle. Before, when I did deliveries for a small farm, I always had one running. Never got anything good except maybe an early morning kimmie walking around a not so good part of the area I drove through. I still keep one in my own business truck, but I don't expect to see much action with that one, but you just never know. I also have them in my personnel cars which can get a little more interesting at times, but that is mostly me being mad at other drivers.
Woohoo!! Story from Randy!
