This incident happened while Owens was qualifying for a race, the process where cars individually run the track as fast as they can and their respective times are used to determine starting position for the race. Owens was from the area and raced this track frequently in competition and practice.

Owens lost control of his car in a turn, and went up on two wheels. Sprint cars of this design (wingless) can reach ~100mph (160kmh) reliably, but he was likely going much slower. I would guess he hit the fence at approximately 40mph (65kmh), still a very hard impact in a 1200lb (550kg) vehicle. The vehicle initially hit the cement barrier with the front right tire, and flipped up, causing the top of the car to impact the cement barrier and the fence. During the initial impact the top of the car's roll cage appears to have been damaged severely, as his helmet can be seen exposed as the car rolls up the fence. the car rolls once along the fence on the way up to the apex, and an additional time on the way down. As the car slides down the fence Owen's helmet appears to be what takes the impact of the top of the cement barrier. If he wasn't dead by that point, he surely was after that. The car then lands upright on the track, the announcer accurately says "and he is over big time!", and McDonald's rolls in to help.

Yes, the small towns in the USA do sponsor their event rescue teams with fast food chains, and no they do not usually see the irony.

The accident happened near Hanumanganj Jeerabasti police post. Here on Monday morning, Arvind Kumar Upadhyay, a resident of Bargaiya of Sukhpura police station area, was going to teach in the school at 9 am. Meanwhile, the bus of St. Xavier's school crushed them near the police post. Due to this, he died on the spot. The incident was captured in the CCTV camera. Where it is clearly visible that the front wheel of the bus ran over the teacher, even after this the bus driver did not stop the bus and made the rear wheel run over the teacher. Due to this the teacher died.

At least he didn't suffer

No Joke, no gif, just watch!

The fatal accident happened on Sunday 13th, Caucaia, in Fortaleza.

The victim was named as João Ingrisson Diógenes do Nascimento, aged just twenty eight years old, was traveling at over 200 km/h and was being recorded by a fellow biker on the CE-085 highway. João travels along the road when a white car enters the highway. He desperately tried to brake, but was going too fast. With the impact, João Ingrisson spun in the air like a ragdoll and was thrown for several metres, until he fell to the tarmac.

SAMU and highway police were called to the scene of the accident, João was unconscious but stabilized enough to be rushed to hospital with serious injuries. He died the following day.

João had a passion for motorbikes, the young man used to post about his admiration for high-capacity motorcycles and was part of motorcycle groups on social media sites. In the most recent post, he appeared with a motorcycle model that can exceed 200 km / h.

His family are awaiting his body to be released after autopsy is performed so they can bury him.
