Watch The Moment Magnus Walker Crashed His 1971 Porsche 911 Into A Truck
Earlier in the week, images of Magnus Walker’s ‘277’ 1971 Porsche 911 wearing some significant crash damage were floating around social media. One depicted the car buried into the rear end of a track, and now, we know exactly how it got there.
It turns out a reporter for the Minnesota Star Tribune was riding shotgun in the car, when Magnus appeared to experience snap oversteer (use this link to watch the full video). This resulted in him slamming into the back of the truck, narrowly missing an old Mercedes SL and another vehicle on the other side of the road in the process.
Glad to see Magnus out of 277 and apparently ok. Really bummed about the car. @magnuswalker Wish you well and hop… pic.twitter.com/GZqqH7J0mY

Reporter Vineeta Sawkar said: "Walker is doing OK, I’m still banged up and bruised, but grateful it wasn’t worse."
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.
