Who Crashed on the Snake?

This happened a while ago, though the video just got posted. Not sure if someone else posted it but, here's somebody, who I think it trying to drift around the famous corner on the snake, crash.

I'm sure he was in shock but, climbing out the sunroof is asking for trouble if the car decides to start to roll back over as he's climbing out. At least he was ok, as he stated about 30 times when others were going to call 911.

Looks like he over-corrected it. What do you guys think?

Sometimes it's better to just let your steering wheel correct itself naturally after a drift.

Dat drifting looks so easy tho.

Step 1 - enlist friends to shoot video
Step 2 - turn off DTC
Step 3 - accelerate sufficiently to throw the rear-end out
Step 4 - (optional) over-correct
Step 5 - let off the gas
Step 6 - call the insurance company
