Helio Castroneves got real lucky Wednesday.
Castroneves was involved in one of the scariest racing accidents we’ve seen in a long time while practicing for the Indianapolis 500. Somehow, Castroneves was able to walk away from the wreck relatively unscathed despite his car flying and flipping through the air.
There’s video of the scary incident, including a couple of insane views from inside the car that really go to show how incredibly lucky the three-time Indy 500 winner is to be OK.
This message was tweeted on Castroneves’ Twitter account from his public relations staff shortly after the crash.
