Flip Fire Fail

Get the Flash Player to see this content.

Nat shot this video earlier today on her way to the gym. She arrived to the scene just as the fire trucks did so she managed to capture some pretty decent footage. The car flipped over and caught fire just opposite the Flex gym on the Istiqlal Highway. According to a cop on the scene, the driver made it out before the car caught fire.

    Please don’t encourage people stopping at the sideways to watch wreckage of accidents and make more traffic.

    Fire Flip Fail? i really dislike the title you gave this…
    I know of the failblogs and those pictures with the word FAIL written in caps lock, but I think labeling everything with the word ‘fail’ is a bit childish

    great video nat, hope it wasn’t hard to take

    Was my comment edited out (removed) Mark?

    If not, and it’s an error of some sort then cool I’ll just reiterate what I had to say:

    I’m glad people on here acknowledge that it’s stupid to go towards danger and gawk. It’s straight up stupid to stop traffic and cause further problems by huddling around accidents like school kids (the hypothetical and fictitious immature type).

    I saw this when I was driving to Jabriya, I just loved how people were crossing the street and slowing down traffic.

    Nice one Nat.
    I wonder was that fireman , at the end, coming over to say “Video mamnoo”.

  16. Holla says:

    there was fire in hawalli near sultan too, i took pix and a video.

  17. Nat says:

    Yeah George, no video or pictures! They were pretty overwhelmed with the fire, they didn’t notice what people were doing at first..

    They call him Flipper, Flipper….

    There have been numerous flips along that stretch of highway. I wonder what the statistics are there and why so many.

    It always astonishes me that the Kuwaiti firemen don’t wear protective gear! That car could have exploded and dudes are walking around in short sleeved shirts – not to mention doing crowd control.
