Porker:
Do please take that man's keys.
I watched only half of the video because I refuse to support such driving, even only watching it.
The drifting is fascinating, yes but the fact that it happens on a public and sometimes crowded (traffic) street, isn't. Then, the driver not only drifts but also drives like a maniac between cars and with extreme speeds inside a city, as if he is driving a car in a video game. This is not only insane and plain stupid but also despicable. The police should take this guy's driver license and throw it away. This is not a person who should drive a car, it is unbelievable how many idiots there are driving on our streets. Unbelievable.
I get it: Some people want to have fun and there is no track near by. There are simple solutions for that. Some public roads can be overviewed for miles, you just need a "spotter" to warn drivers that there is another car on the street. I do not recommend that anyway (public streets) but it would be a possibility. Another one would be to use deserted parking lots on weekends, there are pretty large ones in some regions, even deserted airfields. The best possibility is to go to the track with some friends and have fun there.
What this guy in the video does is not something people should admire because he is a ticking time bomb. Sooner or later, he will kill somebody, maybe himself, maybe his co-passenger or maybe completely innocent people. This guy deserves to drive a...bicycle...not a car.
Btw: The Georgian police apparently took his driver's license away because he was also stupid enough to show his license plate in the video. Even in Georgia, there seems to be a sense for justice and laws, I am glad about it. A lot of lives probably saved.

Wow, I stopped after a few seconds.. the poor car. Such an amazing machine driven to shit by this moronic pleb.
I wish he was behind me flashing me to make space and then crashing into me after not giving him the space... then it would be nice to beat some sense into him before he actually kills someone. Come to think of it, hopefully he finishes himself off in some ravine. honestly

I showed this video to my son and he asked me: "Is this a scene from a video game?".
After I told him that this is real, my son said: "This guy is crazy, he will kill himself or other people".
My son is 9 years old...go figure.
Yes, I watch a lot of car driving videos with him and always try to give him a lecture too (hoping that someday, he will remember when he drives his own car) but the "video game" comment was quite surprising for me because this is exactly what I thought when I saw this video for the very first time. The driver is in a video game, not on a public street...the way he drives. No error margin at all. Zero.

I'm not sure I understood the translation of the article: Was the car destroyed? Did the guy die (I think so) and was he actually the driver or just the co-pilot (judging from the translation).

RIP. He played russian roulette with his life... from the video's no one will be surprised in the least that this tragic end would be the result.. I wonder why he was so suicidal. And, another beautiful machine that was hand built with love is gone forever.
