By now you've heard about the most horrific crash that happened at this year's Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. We've shown you the footage of driver Jeremy Foley and navigator Yuri Kouznetsov flying off the course while rounding the same corner at Mile 16 called Devil's Playground that claimed another car last year. We've also shown you what remains of the Mitsubishi Evolution 8 tuned by Evolution Dynamics that saved both Jeremy and Yuri's life as they rolled 14 times down the 45-degree rock-strewn slope.
Not only did Jeremy and Yuri survive, but they emerged remarkably unscathed, which you can see for yourself in their first interview since the accident with Savannah Guthrie on the TODAY morning show. Besides some scrapes and bruises, the only visual evidence that either of these guys tumbled down a mountain is the sling that Yuri's wearing for his dislocated shoulder.
In the interview, you'll hear the men recall the incident in their own words, as well as Jeremy's heart-wrenching admission of guilt for feeling responsible for Yuri's injuries. A new angle of the crash taken from a camera mounted on the outside of the car is also shown. That video has now been uploaded to the YouTube page of Evolution Dynamics, and we've included it below along with the interview and original view of the accident.
