Mechanic smashes Ford GT

We like our Ford GTs in Gulf livery here at TopGear. We don't, however, like to see them in various states of utter destruction. This tale is particularly galling, as it wasn't even the owner who did the damage.

A tuner in California was "just driving like an old lady" when he fired the $500,000 sportscar backwards off a highway embankment, launching some 20m into the air before smashing into a tree.

The best part? The tuner claims no responsibility and carries no insurance... whaaaaat a goose.

Now check out the best smashes from around the world...

and not to mention our monumental, world famous Fails gallery
