      That was definitely the case back in the day, back in the 50s and 60s you were almost guaranteed to see some sort of horrific injury every race. But thankfully the engineering that goes into these cars keeps drivers safe through some of the gnarliest crashes ever.

Last year F1 driver Gounghu Zhou crashed at Silverstone and his car skidded down the track upside down rolled through the gravel trap and boumced over the safety fence. The year before Roman Grojsean went through a section of amco barrier split his car in half igniting the feul and he was out of the car and jumped the barrier. His hands were burnt but today he races in Indy

    5:15 whats funny is that we had a driving school class at my highschool and we were taught to always pump the brakes after going through a puddle to clear off any water. What always confused me though was that even when I would offroad and completely submerge my brakes in water, the disks never lost braking force. Now it makes sense since US driving safety laws are mainly based on the older 80's and 90's cars that were more often equipped with drums that they would tell us that

      I still have nightmares about a Chevy Suburban (I know it had drum brakes in the back but can't remember if they were in the front) on vacation careening down a steep mountainside with our trailer behind it. The breaks had gotten wet from a little bit of rain from a drainage gutter. We pulled over ASAP and took off the trailer (which we had planned to do at a designated parking space anyway) but road conditions were so poor (it was foggy on and off) that we ended up doing our sight seeing and hauling the trailer up afterwards.
      That vacation resulted in us doing our first drum to disc conversion. That thing was MUCH safer afterwards and I really hope ALL passenger cars have phased out drum brakes. I know there are characteristics that make them useful in long-haul trucking but for the average pleb whose just looking for safety and minimal loss in braking power, disk is the way to go.

      Donut covers automotive engineering, industry, and technology in an engaging, funny, and informative manner and RUclips's ridiculous automation systems for prioritizing (de)monetization and eligibility of (ad) revenues does nothing to enhance the viewer's experience nor does it really, effectively, exhibit any real noticeable benefit(s) for the company's who supply said ads and revenue streams.
      It sucks even more that there is very little we can do aside from complaining and/or becoming direct monetary supporters of these content creators.

    You should check out the origin of Murphy's law, he was the first guy from the US military to suggest seatbelts in planes. But he also brought up they had more pilots die in car crashes than in the air. He did alot of the first tests on any type of safety restraint. During testing they installed some sensors backwards and didnt get any readings. So they put in place redundancy to make sure mistakes wouldnt happen again. Because anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
