The worst one I've seen 'live' rather than on tv was Tony Bell's Corrolla at Lydden - full welly down the hill, got on the grass, hit the bank and then took off. I've never seen a car that far clear of the ground (and the flames from under the bonnet made it look extra dramatic). On landing the car did that sort of 'splat' thing you see in cartoons where all the wheels fly off. Fortunately Tony was ok (and the car recovered too!).
