RIP to all this sweet, sweet sheetmetal cut down in its prime.


10.) Engine Removal, The Easy Way

Why bother carefully unbolting and de-hosing your motor when you could just use a chain and a complete disregard for your vehicle's survival instead?

5.) Vaporizing A Cement Mixer

I remember watching this on TV, but I can't remember what the episode was about. Once you see a cement mixer get wiped clean off the face of the earth, your brain kinda goes blank from all the awesome.

2.) And He Walked Away

Audis seem to have a thing for crashing in spectacular fashion at Le Mans these past few years. Hell, one blew to pieces yesterday. It's this crash with Allan McNish at the wheel in 2011 that's the most stunning. A little bit further and we'd be looking at dead photographers. As it happened, everyone made it out unscathed.
