your view in the driver's seat as opposed to the view you see now? >> well, i had an instant convertible. you're driving along at 300 miles per hour and you're used to what do you for a living and the next thing you know, it's a convertible and there is a huge ball of flame right in my lap. and it burned my face shield a little bit. but again, all the safety equipment did its job. and really, it takes a while to figure out where you're at. and we only have about 1,000 feet from there on to slow the cars down. so thank god the parachutes came out on their own. >> thank god is right. is there any point -- you can almost feel the heat coming off of that footage we have from inside the vehicle there -- when that's happening to when you're watching it again and again, there is no part of you that says, i'm not going to do that again? >> well, i grew up watching my heros do that and when they used to blow up as a kid, i'm standing on the fence saying, i want to do that. like my friends wanted to be astronauts and firemen and i wanted to be a car driver.
