Great hillclimb video

"Sir, don't you think you should buckle you safety belt?"
"Eh... Buckle this... Ludicruous speed... GO!!!"

What you don't see at any time on the video is how close you are always to rolling down the side of the mountain!
It was such a dangerous sport that it got banned in many countries years later.
But for pure adrenaline, few things could beat it!
And another thing, that road is a highway compared to most of the hillclimbs we had!

One of the things I love about it(and WRC) are the spectators you see standing along the OUTSIDE of the corners, on guardrails, on bridges, etc. Complete faith that the guy won't lose it and bring them along on his way out.
