While recording a midnight drifting session in Russia, this cameraman had an extremely close call with a car. We'd say he needed a new pair of pants afterwards.

While recording a midnight drifting session in Russia, this cameraman had an extremely close call with a car. We’d say he needed a new pair of pants afterwards.

Not everyone can hop into a car and drift it sideways around a corner and even the pros can make a meal of it sometimes.

When a drift does go wrong, the last place you’d want to be standing is in the middle of the road with a camera, like this guy…

The cameraman manages to realise the dangers just in time and he jumps out of the way before the car gets too close. Fair play to the driver too, as he manages to pull up before sending the cameraman to an early grave.
