don't lie that your organs can't stand those forces, yes they can if force is short-time, you can even survive from 300km/h to zero in 1s, I have prove here ua-cam.com/video/w7Tj0ykPvUg/v-deo.html this is a crash at over 300km/h and the car stopped under 1s
"They ( American crash-test authorities ) issue rollover ratings for new cars PROBABLY because they love driving around in tall wobbly SUVs so much"
Rather than making a smarmy comments like this based on a biased assumption, maybe you should demand your government to make safer cars than those death traps that you tested.
gang... bruh
@@fanoboss
😅..their roads in the UK are narrow due to they ARE paved over horse & buggy lanes. Give me steel to surround me & my loved ones.
Plus, rollovers are caused by overcorrecting while driving off the pavement. Inertia plus speed? Bam, bi**h...every time. Arms cut off, heads crushed hitting the pavement...yeah.
I've driven full size Chevrolet pickups since my now 35 plus adult children were toddlers. Steel kept us alive & being an EMT/FF made me wise.
Car safety tests are one of this country's best government programs!
Cheers...🎉 Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉

now imagine a Bugatti hitting that wall at 430 km/h
Bugatti+Hitting a solid wall at 430 km/h=Pancakes
OMG.
The only positive thing then is that the owner of the scrapyard dont have to crush the car anymore . And the firedepartment is cutting the car in half to get the inmates out.
probably would've just made a cloud of dust.
It would be totally destroyed
I have a newfound respect for those emergency services who have to deal with such incidents. Imagine having to recover the remains from such an accident as the 120mph crash.
I don't think you could you'd literally have to scrape it off the twisted sheet metal and somehow manage to get into the cabin let alone extract the body that now has a steering wheel and gear lever inside of it's torso
Yeah I've seen it before it's pretty graphic
Yes, it is important to recognize these emergency services people. I can give an account from my son in law. He does not speak of it. He is a fireman and attended a very similar suicide traffic event like this. The road was an access road to a city mountain lookout, and after a long straight stretch at the bottom terminated at a T intersection with an arterial road. The arterial road had a stone retaining wall at the opposite side of the intersection. The driver had loaded his Subaru WRX with a few extra litres of kerosene to add to the effects. The fire brigade was the first to attend. In searching for human remains, it was very difficult to even identify the gender of the driver.
All in a days work.... toughen up... get on with it.... no counselling offered.
@@avidtom52 where was this?
My cousin died in a head-on accident at 100 km/h with another car going at a similar speed. She was literally torn apart. The recovery of the dozens of pieces lasted hours. It was terrible. The other driver was drunk as hell.
2:03
"Starts to understeer off"
Oversteers the car.
His pronunciation of ADAC is equally as bad
Around 29:24 you can see the airbag inflate and then get compressed so quickly it bursts at the left of your screen. Chilling.
If that was a real crash... the head would probably explode in that way as well. A haunting thought
For real
Shit you are right, thats fucking terrifying
@@smuckerst8355 It would be possible to make strong safety devices but the humans wouldn't still survice the g forces, so there's no really any point doing the airbags any stronger.
@@MikkoRantalainen i think if it were the airbags it would be uh, painful. you would bounce right off and still get crushed.
I would have preferred to see a side impact to the limousine to see how the extension would have affected.
It's surprisingly rigid. It and the back of the limo made mincemeat out of the front. Especially when you take into consideration the fact that coach builders cut a saloon car or a Hummer H2 or whatever in half and weld a tube full of disco equipment and other stuff, and that's how limos are made, so you're also accounting for the crimp in structural rigidity as expected from a cut and shut. However, truth be told that limos tend to end up stronger than the original vehicle.
Cesar Castillo if you want to see that then watch the taxi race from top Gear and the driver rammed a NYC v8 taxi through the middle.
@@lambertbutlersilvers6588 Yeah that was probably staged for entertainment purposes.
@@MrSupercar55 I think using a chassis cab is better than stretching a car, like getting an F series.
@@MrSupercar55 that they are my buddy had one that he took rally racing and actually jumped it (immediately totaled it) it bent the car into a u but the middle section held up quite well but the rest of the car was trashed and that was even with a roll cage installed
9:07 BEST PART!!
I disagree. 12:15 was better.
@@larrywalsh9939 lol I dont even remember my comment 🤣... And yeah, 12:15 was better, I have to admit.
Poor 306 Cabrio. Looked like it's in a great shape, and I honestly seen only 2 of these in my life.
Made me sad 😢😢
I've never even seen one before
Made me sad watching, poor little Peugeot.

I really wasn't expecting that.
Dr. Manhattan Me neither. That was definitely very relevant to the crash test!

You can also see the cell bend in the official tests.
It's not designed to be 100% rigid, it has to absorb some energy at some point.
OK, I used to drive a cargo van for a local hospital. The hospital was delivering meals to a local nursing home. The drive to the nursing home was through the mountains and was a very arduous drive. As I came through the only straightaway on this particular drive I was able to accelerate to the speed limit which was 55 mph on that stretch. As I approached the end of that stretch there was a dump truck across both lanes. So I chose to take a gravel parking lot. When I hit the gravel the brakes locked up and I slid about 100 yards, and hit a fully loaded 60 foot long construction dumpster. All I remember was the windshield exploding and it looking like 1 billion stars. It exploded outwards. And then it came shooting back and raining in on me like 1000 bullets. After that it was dead silent. There was a little bit of steam coming from the radiator. The engine and transmission were sitting in the passenger seat. The van was totaled. And usually, as a matter fact every time other than this one, I had some rolling Cambro’s in the back, which I always had but I usually did not strap down. These are giant hot boxes to hold the food. On the return trip they are filled with the pans from the previous day. Every time I came down that mountain I did not strap those down. For whatever reason something told me that I needed to strap them that day. Had I not strapped them, those containers and the 500 pounds of pans would have went clean through me and out the front. I would say total it was about 2000 pounds of gear in the back. Like I said, I never strapped that shit down. That day I did and I survived through the grace of God. And also through the grace of God the dump truck driver accepted responsibility and I was able to keep my job and everything was taken care of by his insurance. Now I’m not saying I haven’t suffered consequences physically because of that over the years but I was young and I was able to bounce back quite well. But isn’t it interesting that that was the only time I ever strapped those down? Other than all the times I drove after that. Lol.
I'm glad you survived mate there's always that little voice in the back of your head that tells you you should do something different from your normal day I always listen to it because it's literally saved my life I went to buy a car and something told me to not even go to check out the car so I didn't turns out the seller was robbing people with a hunting rifle as soon as they showed up and the car was stolen
@@jamesprice2163 my dad had two of those feelings about cars. Both of them ended up having fatal accidents.
@@niko5008 damn man I got that feeling with a mustang I owned so I kept it parked and didn't drive it till I sold it ... Three days later the car burned to the ground on the side of a highway it had a electrical issue somewhere in the dash and lit the car like a match soaked in kerosene
God of the gaps strikes again!
I wonder what was the reaction of the scrap yard owner when he saw the Focus...
So this is the short wheelbase edition?
lol
"Oi! Ya supposed to put em in crusher sideways!"
milulofficial “the fuck do you want me to do you’ve already used a crusher”
"I may be able to sell those rear wheals to that cheap bastard guy."
how much for the rear tires and rims of the focus?
You forgot to write "Sorry for your loss" first
Was thinking the same thing but then again, it's in my user name.
Lol looks like it had the premium wheel package or aftermarket. What a waste. If i was going to wreck a car i would take wheels like that off and replace them with some older, brake dust covered scratched wheels. Hub capped wheels from a junkyard.
@@jaymesnin look at the front wheels

they should put pieces of "modern art" like 29:00 in the middle of (small) roundabouts and at places where people are likely to be speeding, next to a sign saying something like "you could be next"
Tayyab Naveed Sounds more like a TAC speeding commercial!
They used to do that in Poland in the 90thies, I don't know why they don't do it anymore.
Or hit an oncoming lorry while both doing 60 within the limit, same result.

29:00 'it has almost turned into a piece of modern art'
contemporary art in a nutshell
The model he was using at 1:53 is a Chevy Corvair, which was the main topic in Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed because of its rollover-prone swing-axle rear suspension. Not sure how many Brits would have gotten that clever little reference.
12:15
That is a nice arse
It is :)

That Smart did better than most people would believe! Still has it's limits! Not a bad little car!
5:03
dude: "these are called VANS"
me: "yes, I know what a freaking van is lol"
The wreckage at 120mph looks eerily similar to the damage from a strong tornado. That is exactly what the wreckage looked like of Tim Samara's vehicle in El Reno, which somersaulted through the air at 165mph.
@John why r u so mean for no reason
That van test was an eye opener. Imagine if it was carrying heavy tools, lawn mowers, bricks or even wood. That would be a very different outcome.
+Gary Lowe It also would've been a huge difference if, you know, it was a secured load, like it should be. Doubt anybody would carry huge 1 ton items as well, so if it's a lot of smaller items, they wouldn't have the energy to do much damage, even all at once, they'd be hitting at different times, in different directions. Even then, as I said previously, it wasn't secured.
Zero Shima I have known people carry loads like the one in the clip unsecured.
Gary Lowe Well, they're idiots. I'm 99% sure the scenario shown was worst case, but still.
It was mostly the impact that launched the sandbag through the front wall into the cockpit. If the cargo was secured properly to the front/side wall of the cargo compartment it probably wouldn't have been found in the cockpit at all.
Gary Lowe imagine a pickup
0:15 "WHEEEE"
12:16 damn fifth gear really went all out and hired an escort service 😂😂
0:16 PUT UR HANDS IN THE AIR LIKE U JUST DONT CARE WOOHOO
john dempster lol
🤣🤣🤣
400 G's of force is what they said for last test!
Perspectively, F1 drivers feels 5-6 G's when braking hard or accelerating !
So consider what 80 times of that force would be like for passengers !
Thanks Fifth Gear for these eye popping tests !!
At 400 G's eye popping sounds about right. Popping right out.
Its so much force that even if the impact itself didn't kill you you're intestines inside you would hemorrhage and cause massive internal injuries that would kill you such as you're brain being slammed into you're skull like it's in a John wick movie
yes a police friend of mine went to a car crash the rear passengers did not have a scratch but they sadly were dead...
In the USA we are required to have a reinforced cage behind the front seat and it has saved me more than once I've been driving service vans for 30 years. Great video guys
I had a small business here in the US with some vans. One thing we found that must be considered is that when a vehicle, whether it's a van or not, is carrying a load, the braking performance is greatly affected. If you hit the brakes in an empty van, it stops pretty well (as long as everything's in good shape mechanically, of course). But if the van is heavily loaded -- even if the load is well secured -- the load's massive weight shift forward when you stomp on the brakes causes the stopping distance to increase dramatically. It's basic physics, but we didn't think much about it until one van got into a small accident precisely because of this factor.
- I drove semi’s for close to forty years and with proper brakes in proper adjustment a loaded semi will stop as fast if not faster than a empty van due to the proclivity of the trailer tires simply locking up and skidding with out the friction caused by the weight on the tires and anti lock brakes don’t help in many cases they make the situation worse, you can’t overcome physics and the laws of gravity they heavily loaded tires just provide more grip
That last crash is what a true 120mph impact force is like. Two cars hitting each other head-on at 60mph (combined 120mph) does not have an impact force of 120mph.
true, your scenario si like hitting the wall at 60
+BluePixel : Please explain, I always thought, that two cars hitting each other at certain speed, the speeds combine...
Arcord10 there was a Mythbusters episode that featured this, it's because both cars are absorbing the impact whilst a wall is rigid
2 cars travelling at 60mph towards each other. When they hit they stop dead. A car going from 60mph to 0mph whether it's from hitting a solid wall or another car doing 60mph is still only a 60mph impact.
As above, I think there was a mythbusters episode which showed this and explained why.
Yes, I have watched the episode...very interesting, wouldnt have thought so...but like Jamie said, This is how you learn. Thanks
I would love to see a 25% Overlap Crash at 120mph. Just to see how the side rips oopen, and wether it stops are if it just rips off half the car.
12:15 some good distractions 😎👍🏽
29:25 that end was chilling man ..
Imagine if they take it even further and crash a supercar at 200 miles or even more. It could be done, they could get a car that was impounded and would end up being desteoyed anyway. Why not take it and make a crash test.
Well, that wouldn't be as much of a crash test as an "disintegration test", there would be loud bang and then probably nothing even remotely resembling a car. But it'd be quite a visual thing.
Because swapping the engine with a Morris Marina is way better.
*Put a Focus on the military rocket sled at 500mph! That would be a show... no matter how it turned out!*
28:55 nice fart
My goodness me
😂 tough life
WOW!
Lmaooooool
Lmao wtf
4:17 None of their funerals would be open-casket.
My family and I was in a head on collision with a sleeping driver. She was in a 2003 Ford Taurus. I was in a 2003 Ford F-150 supercrew. We were at the same speed here. 90 mph combined. I suffered with a shattered ankle with the tibia popping out. My wife in passenger seat broke her back and 4 ribs. My older son fractured his back. My younger son was in a child safety seat and suffered no problems except a bruise where the seat belt was.
We all woke up 2 nights later in a hospital in excruciating pain across our whole body and couldn’t get back to sleep. Evidently 36 hours after a high energy accident all your muscles just cramp up.
The other lady was unconscious right after the wreck. She had a shattered hip, pelvis and leg. She had a punctured lung and head trauma.
Obviously the pick up truck saved us from more serious injury. This accident occurred in 2006. Our accident looked identical with both vehicles shown in your van-car accident. Everything went in slow motion to me right before it happened. I’m thinking that, just like a film camera speeding up it’s frames per second during filming to give you slow motion playback, my brain went into high speed computation mode to give me a slow motion view and memory playback.
2:24 crash test dummies having some fun
LMAO!!
Limo hitting bridge pillar reminded me of Diana's death.
Drunk driver...the only person wearing a seat belt (the security guard) survived the crash.
The biggest problem especially with older stretch limousines are actually the brakes.
You add a (literal) ton of weight onto brakes never designed to handle it.
Actually, if you consider how fast it was going when it hit the wall, the Smart faired quite well.
Exactly what they said in the video. Too bad a person couldn't fair that.
"That's gonna wobble your wig" LOLOL!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤗
"And, to replicate real life, none of them will be wearing underwear"
😳
when they turned the radio up on 1st car i loved it!! This really makes me think. Just got done building my brother a pretty hot mustang convertible. My car will have a cage in it because it has to, but he has talked about his, I think he better get one in it no matter how bad it looks before something happens. You can't tell me you weren't sitting there mouth wide open on that smart car crash. I was blown away when he opened both doors
Im surprised the Smart can even get that fast.
There should be sensors on the puppets. At the crash van vs. car, for example, you see that from the moment of crash the car not even stops, but goes back. The van is just slowing extremely down. That means there are much more forces against the car passangers than against the van guys. This doesn't result in damage that can be seen on the Dummies, but would cause internal injuries.
Real crash test dummies do indeed have sensors. They are EXPENSIVE however, it was quoted the small child dummy they use as a back seat passenger in EuroNCAP tests costs around £100,000, with the driver dummy costing at least twice that. There is no way they would let the producers borrow half a million pounds worth of real dummies for these tests where they would likely (in the last test, almost certainly) be destroyed.
In fact, that is the main reason Chinese companies cannot sell cars in Europe. After the first imported cars were tested and basically disintegrated up to the B and in some cases C-pillar, the cost in destroyed dummies was too much and the test facilities refused to test any more Chinese cars, meaning they could not get the safety certification to be legally sold in Europe.
The problem with the smart is that it is engineered well and is very stop but nothing can overcome the fact that it's light and small.
still over a ton, 2300 lbs +/- actually as we have one
Smart is basically a rally car rollcage with nicer looks and a small engine. If you had proper rally rated seats, seatbealts, helmet and the hans device you could survice quite bad hits in that.
Well, the steering wheel of the Smart in your test moved kind of lethally to the driver. As for the second car the roof and chassis bent exposing the front passerngers to great danger.
Afterall, really cool effort to showcase car safety in extreme speeds and conditions.
The limo party was freaking awkward
That Focus at the end - looks a little like what an SUV looked like after it tangled with an Amtrak Acela train at 150MPH. The SUV was a little crumpled piece of metal. The Acela train barely suffered a scratch.
+kd1s My sister has Ford Focus! :D
28:40 - first owner from Germany, selling in Poland
good condition, no rust, owned by an older couple, barely driven
@@dawnmaster96 a few age related marks 😂
Princess Diana died when her limo hit a concrete support of a bridges under-pass at over 85mph, unbelievably her body guard survived but with serious injuries. Now we have electric cars that can accelerate to 100kph (62mph) in 2 seconds but at the same time crash safety has not advanced much since the days of the first smart cars 🙄 Kill speed not yourself or others 🧐
that ford focus on craigslist : low milage great interior only been in one small accident, perfect project car ! 😃
I wish government would put more into teaching people how to drive properly. Apart from a few road signs, there's pretty much nothing I still do as taught by my driving instructor because it's just so stupid.
I think Finland is closest since I think they have multiple years of training and get taught how to deal with understeer, oversteer and locking wheels under braking.
68 Milliseconds is what a modern dual-clutch gearbox in a Ferrari takes to change a gear! So, it should make a good anti-speeding commercial!
"You either swap a cog or give your life back to your Creator in 68 Milliseconds!"
Just as well they had an "expert" to describe the damage in the last car, otherwise we might have thought that it could have been survivable....
What the hell, @ 10:10 It was an UNSECURED one ton weight, what the hell did you think would happen? Of course it's going to smash forward. But who is going to have an unsecured one ton weight in the back of their van?
More people than you think sadly.
im almost 18 and i want to buy a 2002 focus as my first car.
This scared the living shit out of me.
Don't drive 120 mph 😒
No car can save anyone from an impact like that.
Did anyone notice that his rollover model car was the star of the book Unsafe at Any Speed by Ralph Nader? The Chevy Corvair! Lmfao! Glorious!
As someone who is a crash investigator, here are what the dummy injuries are likely sustained
Peugeot 306: all 3 crash dummy's are dead
Volkswagen jetta/Bora: minor injuries, possible whiplash, head and neck injuries if the car has no airbags
Vauxhall van/ Ford transit: whiplash injuries, broken legs from deformed seat, possible spine injuries from the sand bag
Limo: driver likely has broken legs, whiplash and face injuries as this model likely has no airbags considering it is a late 70s, early 80s vehicle
Rear passengers: blue shirt head injuries and cuts and bruising, purple probably whiplash and neck pain
Smart fortwo: likely dead driver, due to whiplash and deceleration forces, but also broken legs and neck as the seatbelts dont retract well
Ford focus 3 door hatch: all occupants are dead from deceleration forces, you would experience 700g forces at average weight of 180lbs, (85kg) which would make you weigh briefly as much as a m1 Abrams main battle tank
Edit: I know it's a passat but it's similar to a Jetta, which I have reviewed crashes for the Jetta.
11:03 *what my toilet sees when I poop*
How much for the rear wheels ? ( Focus )
Thankfully safer vans with front crumple-zones like the Ford Transit & Renault Trafik, have become more popular here in Australia. However, cheaper cab-forward vans like Toyota's Hi-Ace still remain extremely popular (just as in most of Asia) despite the fact that you can say goodbye to your legs if there's a frontal impact!
That Focus crash is just bone chilling to think of….
I love how they drained the fluids prior to crashing them.
breaks my heart when they use my favorite car for such an impressive test
its insane how much the damage differs from 40 to 120
Focus passengers crash survival rate 100%
the nonchalant crazy bro Ummm NOT if they won't wear their seat belts it's not I bet...like pretty much ALL teenagers probably don't while they are out tearing up the town lol
Sensitive lil fella. When that horn went off he looked genuinely scared.
21:05 : It looks like they already crash tested that red Peugeot
aka a 307 CC
Smart cars have earned my respect
"these are called vans" lmaoooooo thank you, thank you for that observation
@John dude, STFU, just, shut up.
"Maybe it'll make you think twice the next time you want to put your foot down". Chilling statement if you flash back to the Focus.
We Americans love our tall, wobbly SUVs so much? Boy, was THAT an broadhead arrow to the heart!
I would like to see how a smart car would do head on against a large pickup truck? Say crew cab F350, or a GMC dually.
IQTriggerfishy see your point but this show is in the uk I don’t think they would be able to do it

I almost rolled a car once. I was driving aggressively, swerved to avoid a head on collision, went into the grass, and kept driving. No damage to anything, I got lucky.
@Debra Meyers No. That was luck combined with a bit of driving knowledge.
8:44
Why keep the oil in the car if it was going to be pulled up to speed anyway???
The look of horrific awe on the face of the host of the last or number 1 car is incredible!

12:15
this new graphics update for beamNG drive looks amazing
That last crash, the look on that dumb guys face in total amazement as if he can’t believe the destructive power of a car traveling at 120 mph and hitting a concrete barrier could basically vaporize a car and it’s occupants.
Yeah nothing being vaporised here.
So we ignoring the fact the limo driver met his maker first 😂😂😂
The van had no airbag? How is that save to begin with?
The say in the video the van was 12 years old. What date was the original program aired? The van is a Vauxhall Movano, and is a badge engineered 2nd generation Renault Master van, available from 1998 onwards. Assuming the van is a 1998 model, the regulations at the time, probably did not require airbags to be fitted to vans. Only to cars. Most likely the van does not have ABS either.
How can you put an airbag on a wheel with that angle? 😂 You will crush your chest instantly.
@@manelmoyano7080 It... actually wouldn't. There's more space between your body and the wheel with that angle. In fact, the angle on a regular passenger car is more likely to injure people, yet they all must have it.
Just saw the first roll over test with the Peugeot 306 cabriolet: What a mean trick to make use believe this car was so much more unsafe than the younger Peugeot 207 CC tested by professionals in the clip seconds before. Why I say that? Note the big difference in vertical and longitudinal speed: During the professional test the car has almost no change in the height during the rollover and no speed in longitudinal direction. The older 306 roll is started by speeding over a one sided ramp which lets the rollover test start in a height of 3 Meter (estimated) and a longitudinal speed of 40kmh (25 mi/h) (also estimated). So this is not a rollover test - it is a speed crash test against a solid concrete floor roof ahead! Doing basic physics (free fall) I get a vertical speed of 27 km/h (17 mi/h) on impact plus the speed in longitudinal direction that can not result in pure slide at impact time due to the vertical crash that results in great shear force. What is the vertical and longitudinal speed of the younger Peugeot 207CC in the professional test shown before? ZERO! Would have been very interesting to see how the younger car performed in the mean ramp rollover test they did to the 306 ... I bet no one would have called the 207CC save anymore after seeing that happen. Maybe the younger car would have performed slightly better - but there is no evidence shown here. This is no comparison, the second crash is way beyond the professional rollover test.
8:00 the volkswagen did preatty well
Looks like the van barfed out the air filter while in slowmo. 😁 No worries it'll buff out!
Best accelerating and stopping focus in the UK 👌
I'm in the US and there was a police chase. A small Kia soul was fleeing police, lost control and flipped into a tree at over 100 mph or 180kph. That was a scene.
29:00 that is the truest thing I have ever heard
is it just me or did it not look like 40 mph in the van crash test
Tbh this car still held up pretty well. If you saw those other foreign cars like the Comodore, that thing was demolished even more than this and it only went 40 mph.
i did 122 MPH in my ford fusion... not doing that again...
on the other side of the world:
GERMANY: AUTOBAN!
Yeah this actually freaked me out quite a bit. I've been driving to Texas a lot to see a buddy of mine and have been doing 100+ regularly but that's going to stop after seeing this.
As long as you're on an open Highway and not speeding towards a solid wall you should be fine.
I did it in rural roads... dont do this. It's dumb, and reckless.
