Quite frankly, serve 'em right. I can't stand morons like that who deliberately endanger other people's lives. For example here in Spain the local chavvy Manwells aren't much better (the only difference is that they don't drive in their dressing-gowns...). Getting nicked deliberately endangering other road users' lives like that should carry an automatic death sentence.

Exactly why I'm taking the piss
Still reckon they don't seem to bleed much though I mean .. if you get yer arm ripped off and you're in yer nightie you'd expect a bit more claret on show
How many lost their arms? On about the third roll, there's a guy going up and out to the left without an arm and the guy at the end on the road looks like his is the one on the road beside him
Think that clunk-click hasn't been heard of overthere
Surprisingly,with massive limb trauma, there's (relatively) little blood loss.
The body compensates by the muscles tightening around blood vessels at the open wound when the wound is "end on". When the wound is perpendicular to the muscles and blood vessels then you get lots of bleeding.
Tater probably has a wealth of knowledge in this area.
f!$%ing shocking footage and worth showing to every would-be boy racer who thinks it's OK to f!$% around on public roads and uncool to drive without a seatbelt. It's lucky some innocent motorist wasn't tangled-up in that crash (although all too often they are).
Just for balance, how many of us did the occasional stupid stunt in our cars when we were younger? I remember deliberately spinning my Capri, and racing around the village in an uninsured Scirocco GTI (when it caught fire it was probably for the best).
Young people can be very poor decision makers / risk assessors. That doesn't make them bad or stupid. It just means they need more education (including examples like this one), enforcible restrictions, and, lets's be honest, a societal shift away from the often macho, adversarial approach to road use.

I once had eight people in my 1275GT Mini and broke the subframe driving it off a kerb due to the excess weight contained within however I don't remember anyone getting thrown out through the sunroof or windows as I barrel rolled it down the road
I counted two bodies in that, both out through the same window. I'm sure it'll polish out

Mine (850cc) did the same jumping sleeping policemen with 4 people on board - no barrel roll though
I remember driving my Hllman Avenger with my two sons in it in a car park with several inches of snow havin a great time spinning the rear of the car all over the place.
I saw the same video is in YouTube. Looking at one of the other videos that appeared in the links on the right hand side of the page showed some bloke who was stood at the side of the road bring hit by a car going sideways. The only way I can describe what happened is that the bloke just burst. Bloody horrible.

Start watching about 40 to 45 seconds into the video. Looking at it again, the 'bust' I thought I saw is his flip flops and bit of car bodywork but it's pretty horrible all the same.
