Driver Marius Aasen and co-driver Marlene Engan managed to escape unharmed from this massive accident at the Sigdalsrally in Norway this weekend.

The young driver was attacking the rally's fifth stage when he got out of shape on a bump at "approximately 150kph" (93mph). Their Fiesta hit rocks beside the road, and proceeded to flip and roll along the road, landing upside down in a river.

Luckily we managed to get out on our own, and were able to swim to the river bank without panicking.

This could have been a lot worse, so we're glad to see they're okay.
