The one where it's like a sand hill behind him and the car sort of spins on it's long axis around him?

Dude was gonna have incredible shots, life or death be damned.

There are very few photogs who can stand there and get those shots with something like that coming at you. Similarly, I used to stand in like that on the sidelines at football games. Until I got mowed over....completely destroyed a $50k dollar camera. After that I realized getting the awesome highlight wasn't really that important. There'll be other plays.
