    Pah! Call that an explosion? The mill was still intact!

    Do believe there are four actually!

    Well, they do call them funny cars for a reason! Take note kids, that's what'll happen when you try and make internal combustion produce 8000hp. Believe it dropped an inlet valve into one of the pistons, causing the entire fuel system to catch on fire. And as they're run on a nitromethane/methanol mix, which is explosive, that's what you get. Toasty!

    That's why F1 fails to get noticed in America. No explosions. They design drag cars to go up spectacularly.

    But more important is the 3rd most watched video on that page, ahead of this one - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8683750.stm

    For some reason. A couple of years old. Shame it was a miss.

    Haha, the people in the background obviously don't like him very much! Could have maybe mentioned the fact there was a f off commuter train coming at him!
