    coz it's fun

    and when you're with your friends it's even more fun

    pag sinabihan ka pa ng "sige nga tingnan natin gaano kabilis car mo"... recipe for disaster talaga

    Famous last words indeed.

    And it's true where things just seem soo slow and you remember almost every millisecond as you TRY to brake a car that's out of control, before the impact and that scary silence within right after. What really hit me was two things:
    - I learned how it was to have no control over the car.
    - I almost killed my closest friends. Just imagine my thoughts when i was at their weddings and the baptisms of their kids years later. Things that could have never been because of me being stupid at the wheel of a car.

    Whenever I find myself losing my cool behind the wheel remembering this clip somehow helps cool me down:

    I remember watching it quite a few times as a kid. A few decades after and it still hits where it matters. Not bad for a Goofy episode

    yup

    i experienced losing control of the car a number of times... it's an almost unreal feeling... time does slow down

    don't we all? aminin natin, kahit bulok na sasakyan there will always ba a time na susbukan natin ang speed limit nito or papatulan ang hirit ng barkada, pano pa kaya kung brand new car? it's just the timing and lack of good judgement that separates the dead from the living.

    A car is a deadly weapon, kaya dapat mahigpit ang pag issue ng license. Bawal talaga tanga tulad ng mga jeep, bus at motor.

    Hehe... i also remember watching this episode as a kid. To think that was done more than a half century ago and yet, some things never change.

    Come on! As if you never had that "I am indestructible" mindset when you were younger. Add to that the adrenaline rush when doing dangerous stunts. I was doing basically the same thing when I used to ride my bicycle and trying to pedal as fast as I can (51 kph) or diving from the high platform to the pool below.
