Video: watch a shirtless man crash a Porsche 918

Before. Fall. Pride. Comes. A. Rearrange words into a well-known, cohesive sentence, and you have the life lesson contained in the short clip above.

It’s footage of a Shirtless Man and his companion in a Porsche 918 Spyder, recorded in St Tropez.

Said Shirtless Man gives the universal ‘rad’ hand signal, before gunning the (his?) 918 at full pelt towards some unsuspecting human beings.

Luckily, he avoids the humans. Unluckily, the Porsche does not avoid the solid objects slightly further down the road. Shirtless Man and his companion appear to have emerged unharmed, but… still. We suspect he's had better days at the office. Um, beach.

Of course, if you've got enough money to buy a Porsche 918, you've probably got enough money to afford its crash repairs.

Even so. Watch. Wince. Heed the lesson, kids.
