After this, I'd give up rally driving...

Video of an astonishingly near miss in a rally event.. sounds like they're in Norway or something. Loses control of the car and spins backwards.. as he does so a tree branch spears in through the back window, all the way through to the windscreen. Another few inches to either side and it could have been a far worse accident.

I saw this the other day.

 

If you look closely you can see the branch hit the drivers helmet

Mental :cuckoo:

 

At that point I would've changed my pants, flown home, signed on, and spent the rest of my days watching car boot and auction based TV!

 

Random note though..it looks suspiciously like a Transformers horn button on his wheel
