We’ve shown you more drift crashes than we can count on the hands of an entire professional football team, but fortunately, most of these incidents involve the drivers and their cars, not spectators, because, you know, sensible people do their best to keep a safe distance from drifters.

But as always, you’ll find an individual who is an exception to the rule – yes, it’s that guy with his face planted on the boot of the BMW M3 E36 Coupe you see in the opening photo and who foolishly jumped inside the track to perform a hand clapping gesture aimed towards the drift driver.

Bravo, well played, well played…

But seriously now, we hope he’s okay because that slam didn’t look or sound good.
