3 films.

Old chap sticks his 75 on a ramp in a mulitistory

Warning lots of F'in and Jef'in as the film makers are some sort of Cockney's

Don't judge the filmers till the end!

Maybe I'm being silly but surely rather than watching the person smash the car up they should have got out and helped them

Watched the whole thing now and still think they were too slow to react poor old man. I've reversed people's cars before as they couldn't get the car in a space.

I think that point had passed quite early on to be fair Thomas.

They could have helped sooner though I agree

Cannot believe those guys sat in their car and did nothing for 10 minutes then decide to help the guy once the damage had been done and they were tired of having a good laugh....

Disgusting! (And that goes for the other chap's driving aswell)! I didn't find in the least bit amusing - I'm dismayed...

Welcome to your Future Generations...........

My Work colleague was laughing at a Video on his Phone, I asked what it was he was laughing at, he showed me the clip..........4 Women fighting each other in a McDonalds, one Girl was knocked unconscious and whilst laying there on the floor another Girl stamped and kicked her head repeatedly, meanwhile the imbecilic plantpot dipstick filming was laughing hysterically on his phone instead of doing the Human and pretty simple logical thing of calling an Ambulance, clearly a lack of Education and moralistic Values from his drug addled parenting prevented him to realise the dangers to the unconscious girl.........But hey, if its funny lets post it online...........After all it is more important to be popular than it is to be human........

Richard Heads...........

I posted on the other thread brought up about this but thought I would add my thoughts now I have seen all three videos...

I am mortified that this chap thinks he is still safe and competent to be on the roads. He was jumping from gear to gear (auto I presume?) and when that other chap approached, I thought he was going to get run over. As soon as he freed himself the engine was revving hard where he obviously put his foot too hard on the accelerator - he appeared to have a total lack of control.

Controversial I know but this is appalling driving. I hope for the safety of everyone in that area that his chap has hung up his keys for good.

Well one thing is for sure, he is going to need a new door. They should of just helped him, instead of watching and laughing at him getting hung up on the railing.
