Why on earth would he do that???? He looks pretty cool and collected on camera,probably just glad Jay wasn't hurt. Although you know that has to hurt, he's been driving that car for 50 years, its like one of his children.
I will give some credit to the guys who built the car as well. Roll cage, harnesses, seats, fuel cell, all did their job, nobody hurt, not even a scratch.

As for where they were filming, it looked like a big empty parking lot and they hit a bump or hole in the road. I'm suprised they weren't on a drag strip filming, as that's about the only safe(relatively) place to operate that car. With the way the suspension is modified, it isn't meant to turn or hit a bump.

Must be. I think that is probably something that should be talked about much much more. What he did potentially saved himself yet seems to be a little known thing.
