    Amazing how a car can be flipped at not more than 35k.

    • theProphet says:

      Very possible–even at slower velocities. The forces need only be acting in the right direction at the right time and over you go. My mother did it more than 20 years ago and she was traveling less than 20K. Physics is a many splendored thing.

      • Rick Rock says:

        I’m sure it’s not impossible. It’s amazing that in Bermuda it happens several times a week.

        • James s says:

          Absolute rubbish. Anyone that tells you they turned a car over at 20mph is a liar. Unless they had a big ramp and wenT off the edge.

  7. Wow says:

    Yeah cars flipping every month now??? Can anyone explain?

    • Eyes Wide Open says:

      Well, you see…the driver tried to run over a frog that was chillin’ down the road by the pond. Long story short…that was a strong frog! Just one hop under the car and KERPLUNK!

    First try out for the 2012 stunt driving team. Fail.

  9. BadApple says:

    Maybe we should have cameras all over Bermuda – that way we can sell this priceless footage for the next James Bond films. I only hope that the driver is ok – the car looks like it did what is only possible in the movies!
