Stumbled across this photo on 2facedbook earlier; it was taken locally to me years ago at a local china clay pit. Anyone else got any unfortunate shots with an old school content?

Dunno about mine trucks running over cars, but I immediately thought about Bigfoot 1 in its early guise with the mahoosive can-barely-drive-because-the-axles-are-flexing-all-over-the-place wheels.

Not car related, but the first pic reminded me of this classic shot. Note the yellow bulldozer in the top-left corner, which was accidentally scooped up by the mining machine.

Actually it was Bigfoot 5 with the enormous wheels. In this vid you can see the axles bending about at one one point. It could barely drive with those enormous wheels ;D

BTW: I´m sure this thread wasn´t meant to be a monster truck thread! I thought it was unfortunate retro shots...I see a crushed Alpine (or Tagora), a Mk1 Cavalier, a Renault 12, Datsun 100a, a Mk2 Fiesta and Mk2 Escort falling victim to Sky High in those shots.

^^ Never heard about the 'paint accident' at the time, but I can see why the paramedic would be in stitches ;D

That reminds me so much of an indecent 20 odd years ago. We were all getting curse word at a mates house and thought it would be fun to roll out his Sinclair C5 to take turns and see who was the fastest to drive/ride it up and down the road. Utter hilarity ensued right up until the point when one mate turned a little to quickly and flipped the C5 over smashing his head into the road surface!! It was highly hilarious at the time and still is to me today when I think back to it ;D
