I remember seeing this happen live. I've been looking for footage of it since then unsuccessfully. I remember finding it hilarious at the time and I still kinda do. :)
While everyone was saying "OHHH GOD" the other commentator was "oh, look at the speed!" That's devotion to racing. Not even taking a life away can distract this man from his passion.
"Ooh that's terrible, that's er, that's pretty shocking vision isn't it ?" ...lol...I saw this live,they replayed it at least 3 times before they said they'd stop showing it. Then it was on the news and they showed it 3 more times ...including a slow mo'. XD
This reminds me of one of a line from a comedian talking about PETA types. They see a homeless guy with a dog, and are like, "Oh God, I hope that dog is eating."
@itube141 The person on the radio was Jim Richards, the driver of the car. You can also tell due to the fact you can hear the cars engine over his microphone. I Highly doubt he was complimenting himself haha.
Dude what was that kangaroo thinking "oh yea i can totaly jump this race track with cars going over 200 miles per-hour" i bet he was trying to impress his friends
This is one of those stories you hear at a bar. "I was driving almost in first place and a kangaroo ran in front of me" and all his buddies were like "Yeah sure, tell us more made up stories"
Yes, give or take a leg or two ! I'm no expert, but I think they would be of about the same range in mass, leaving out the larger, fully grown deer and the smallest of kangaroos. Very large roos ( specifically the red ones ) can grow to near 7ft tall and weight about 250lbs. They are not cute little things to pat and cuddle. ( even the smaller ones )
@Steerway213 You should check what you are writing. Fact is that the Driver was shocked after the race, and also fact is that this kind off accidents are seriously dangerous. There were enough drivers that got hurt by animals on the track. I believe you never drove a racecar. A racedriver is happy if he finishes the race without a injury. You have no idea how much pressure a racedrive has and how scarry it is if you get hit by anything at this speed
0:10 i love how the guys says "good driving there mate" xP
That's one boomerang that won't come back.
It has to be said at one point. "FATALITY"
That kangeroo went flying
"I wanna be superman but then i dont but then arhh fuck it BANG arhhhh FUCK!" lmfao
V8 Racecar uses punch.....FALCON....PUNCH!!!!
EpicRiman lol
It's super effective!
Damn that kangaroo has got wings, to many redbulls before he hopped on the track! LOL, the car sure got the "JUMP" on him!
Take it home for the dogs.
"Ah that's terrible." He sounded so calm.
Kangeroo probably thinks: Wow now im gettng in Guinnes World Record Book! :p
'Ahhhh, that's terrible'. So terrible you guys showed a replay LOL!!!! Excellent vid.

only in Australia will you find a kangaroo on a racetrack
While everyone was saying "OHHH GOD" the other commentator was "oh, look at the speed!"

Kangaroo: Mount Panorama Circuit, eh ? Okay, let's take off and look at that, there will be the real Panorama xD
"Pretty shocking isnt it?" ,Cameraman breaks up laughing, "SORRY, SORRY LULZ"
kangaroo: i'm alright just some bruises i'll be ok in in the morning
"Nah, i'm all good, just got the wind knocked outta me" XD
I like the commentator - "Thats a pretty shocking visual, isn't it?" Well, yes, but it is funny for some reason to!
lol! Then I guess scences like this arent uncommon, ey? XD but wow, you really know alot about them :)
Insert Enrico's "It's a race, I'm winning, it's a race" sounds to poor kangaroo :)
:( that roo went "CARTWHEEL" right across the track mate...
I don't know why I find this so fucking hilarious or any other vid of an animal getting hit by a car
"Hit a roo now mate"
SO MANY STEREOTYPES WERE JUST FULLFILLED

Kangaroo: OH! look a race! i wanna race, i can run fast!
(Gets hit by car)
Kangaroo: OHH SHIT OHH SHIT !!!

Chuck Norris would have been like;

"F***youcar*
I remember seeing that live when I was young it was nuts :P
Omg!, Is the Holden ok?
"Ooh that's terrible, that's er, that's pretty shocking vision isn't it ?" ...lol...I saw this live,they replayed it at least 3 times before they said they'd stop showing it. Then it was on the news and they showed it 3 more times ...including a slow mo'. XD

Heh, I guess instead of deer they have to watch out for kangaroos in austrailia XD
What does a kangaroo taste like? Is it any good?

kangaroo: im gonna make it im gonna make it... aww so close...
car driver:did it love me that much?
Dude what was that kangaroo thinking "oh yea i can totaly jump this race track with cars going over 200 miles per-hour" i bet he was trying to impress his friends
I've seen a bird fly, i've even seen a elephant fly but a flying kangeroo?!
Is the car okay?!
There ARE kangaroo steaks and burgers in Australia, I think. Maybe.
Announcer: "That's a pretty shocking vision, isn't it? Ha ha ha ... so let's just show it in slow motion -- you know, for maximum effect ;o)
I like how they fly! I find this funny because is lot if the times the cars get totally messed up
AHAHAHA THAT WAS HILARIOUS!!!! IM LITERALLY ROFLing!!!!!!
is the car ok?
...that kangaroo flew....
is the kangaroo alright?
is that some blood on the lens at the end?
Ragdoll physics at it's best!
WAS THE CAR OK?

Wow i heard of cars hitting kangaroos, BUT THAT KANGAROO HAD THE BALLS TO HIT THAT CAR!!!!!

This is one of those stories you hear at a bar. "I was driving almost in first place and a kangaroo ran in front of me" and all his buddies were like "Yeah sure, tell us more made up stories"
Meanwhile, Australia is down there like WTF Mate?

Dumb question...but could it survive that?
at 0:10 listen and i swear the guy on the radio said "good drving there mate."
That was epic.
So... who won the race?
That will make nice pizza toppings.

dude. thats just like gta 4
Lol at 0:14 it's spasming on the ground. Poor Kangaroo! But more importantly, poor Holden!
Dang! He almost cleared the wall! Too bad he can't try again...
lol you don't get much more Australian than that
The roo was actually mounted and now hangs in the main foyer of the course HQ. No Shit!
ha ha... that was awesome. the kangroo got some serious air time.
One phrase to describe 0:09 - 0:14
DO A BARREL ROLL! :D
lol... "that could be a problem for the ...car" .. nevermind the kangaroo
KRAINKY!!!! took his whole arm off!!!
damn he went flying
oh my god..... is the car alright!?!

wow were on the hit list of the WWF for watching this
it's the kangaroo's fault! i didn't see a crosswalk there...
He got hit by Captain Falcon's Final Smash....
This road course is more exciting than watching cars drive in a big circle all day.
I'd rather watch Bathurst1000 than Daytona500.
Looks like he wont hopping out of this situation. YEEEAAHHH!!!!! ( guitar solo)
my sis boyfriend swerved to avoid hittin a roo and instead hit a tree, broke his collar bone and his gearbox is sittin in the bak seat of his ute
