Out of curiosity, I thought you were rear ended, which would mean the guy behind you would be at fault. Why didn't insurance pay for the repairs?
Kinda sad to see the car ripped up like this...

WOW lol what a video, been watching it on repeat for 5 mins. I dont understand why the driver fell over like a chopped down tree, he didn't hit his head or anything, he just falls flat on his face. That's nuts, they were flying!!

usually i hate calling people that have been in accidents mean names, but in this situation, the guy driving that boat is the most ignorant human being on earth, you dont take a boat up to those speeds on A) bumpy waters B) people in the boat standing not sitting and holding on C) when there are other boats in the vicinity, just stupid
about the parts, sick deal man, how much did you end up selling the engine for? Always dreamt of a shelby replica kit with an AMG engine in it, and a dual clutch box :P

Yeah, they can easily hit 90MPH. Looks like the down force after jumping the wake was enough to knock him out.

A 38 Fountain can easily handle jumping out of the water and hitting speeds above 90MPH. That many people in the boat was stupid. None of them wearing vests was stupid as well. It was on a lake and a very common place for these boats to do those speeds. The driver hit another boats wake and I guess didn't expect it and landed on its side which knocked him out and send them for quite a ride. They are all pretty lucky.
For the record: This is how its done. Sorry for the derail of your thread BTW. Good luck on the tear down.
