The time i was in a crash.

SHIIIIIIIT.

lemme start here.. 

My stepbrother bought an AUDI A6 avant 1997 model what had a 2.7l v6 for 300 euros.

It had been with us for 3 days.

We thought it would be a good idea to go and take it for a spin. So we invited a couple of our friends with us.

We went to an old sand quarry (its kind of a beach right now).

we were fucking around and then one of my friends said lets head back, my brother was like okay lets go its getting cold outside anyways.

We headed back to the car, turned it on and headed home (our friends lived right behind us).

We were behind a light. and when it turned green some trippy music was playing and we thought it would be a good idea to speed up.... (that was the worst idea ever in my opinion).

So we're like 10 meters from a 90 degree turn and we were going like 80km/h all it took was 3 seconds and we hit the fucking lamppost........

only my brother was wearing a seatbelt.. 

BTW that was the slowest 3 seconds of my life... i could see that we wouldnt be able to take the 90 degree angle on and i put my hands over my head pushed myself into the front seat and waited for the impact.

and them BAM. the impact was strong enough to total the audi.

but the lamppost was strong as shit.

after the impact had happened, i asked if everyone was okay, then  i rushed outside grabbed the extinguisher from the boot of the car. pulled the pin and ran towards the front of the car.

There was a ton of smoke, but sadly no flames XD

first thing was i called the fiveo but at the time i wasnt thinking that my brother is 16 and its illegal to drive without a licence and you cant get the full licence until you're 18.

my friend who was sitting as the passenger had hit the dashboard before the airbag could deploy, and got a bloody nose.

heres a few pictures of the crash

(My brother's the one in white)

We had cracked the engine block diagonally so all of the oil was leaking out.

radiator was slammed into the engine block

(they asked 1600euros for the repair of the lamppost) like shit.. at least put our names on it or something XD

At least we have something to bragg about now.. we own a fucking lamppost, what you gonna do about it. huuh 

The popo came and we had to basically write a book of what had happened :D 

driver of the car - @austrin16

 He didn't get a ban from getting a licence or anything just a verbal warning...

Some guys came to check out the crash.. and offered us 50 euros for the car.. we were like why not we cant do anything with the car anyways so we sold it for 50 euros.. 

we got it for 300 and sold it for 50 in 3 days ...

While I'm sure it sucked to go through...it was an entertaining read for me. It'd be pretty funny if they did have plaques of who 'paid for' the light pole attached. I remember when I was in an accident many years ago and saw those seconds where everything moved in slow motion.

I added to this the @steemittalk podcast agenda to talk about on this Saturday's recording (time permitting.)
