Most spectacular crashes?

[Dan Locke]

Everyone crashes at least once in Wipeout HD, and the game makes sure that they're as explosive and ship-throwingly powerful as possible. What are the most impressive crashes that you've had?

Mine:

1. Once, at Sebenco Climb, I oversteered into a corner and died. The crash made up for it, though - my Assegai spun across the sky end-over-end in slow motion, trailing fire and smoke the whole way and silhouetted black against the blue sky behind it.

2. Today, I was racing at Chenghou Project in the Auricom, and I hit a mid-air bomb right in front of the second ramp. The screen was filled with an orange fireball, and the camera cut to the other side, where my Auricom emerged from the fire and smashed into a wall. It was pretty cool.

I thought we already had a thread like this. Anyone? Bueller?

I thought we already had a thread like this.

I looked, but I couldn't find one.

I think it was called 'what are your most spectacular racing incidents [or accidents]' or something like that. I was hoping one of the thread readers would remember.

In Assegai, Ubermall, on the Last Uphill to the Line, Barrel Roll into a Plasma, in turn crashing into a Bomb just to get crushed by an Incoming Rocket.... Death to the Extreme....

This one?

Assegai definitely gets into some wild crashes.

The latest one I can remember is Feisar going up the hill after the magstrip on Metropia Reverse and getting destroyed, the forward momentum carrying me upward seemingly without end. I was a little upset that it was online, because I'm particularly keen on that spot. I would have paused to take some pictures!
