Getting them shocks broke in
from rolling it over.

:32:04
Yeah.
:32:07
What was that all about?
:32:09
I don't know. Good thing
there wasn't a rock there, though.

:32:13
Mike, I'm telling you, the back end
is just softer. It's just too soft.

:32:17
The good Baja racer
is prepared for anything.

:32:19
Like number 560, who did a complete
roll just outside of Ensenada.

:32:23
Unphased. He straightened
the windshield wipers out

:32:26
and his daughter. Who knew a thing or two
about twist ties. Got the door shut.

:32:29
And believe it or not. He finished
the race 835 miles later.

:32:33
Twist tie in place.
:32:35
Then you have the example
of Team Hibachi.

:32:38
Who opted for an impromptu
pit stop to demonstrate

:32:40
two very distinct methods
of firefighting...

:32:42
the hyperkinetic smother method
which got the flames 60% contained.

:32:46
And the much more laid-back
low-altitude water drop.

:32:52
But there are those
who are just not prepared.

:32:54
Like this fella.
Who lost his gas cap.

:32:57
And the fire, it was about this wide
when I looked back.

:32:59
You got a gas cap?
:33:00
We got something we could
probably set up for ya.

:33:05
Look at that fit.
That'll work.

:33:08
You got some tools
that are salvageable in here.

:33:10
You don't see help like this every day.
:33:12
You need a flashlight?
:33:13
Jason, I think you're
gonna be okay, my friend.

:33:15
We're pretty sure he made it.
Despite some evidence to the contrary.

:33:19
There are things that are
impossible to prepare for.

:33:22
Like your engine falling off.
Sitting there. Mocking you.

:33:27
Near the ostrich ranch.
15-year-old Kevin Denault was prepared.

:33:30
His video camera at the ready to shoot
his Uncle Bob as he raced past.

:33:42
The ostriches were in shock.
Even cars fly better than they do.

:33:47
T turned out that young Denault
had the only footage of his uncle's wreck.

:33:50
Which had taken place
right in front of him

:33:52
at the only place their paths
would cross for a thousand miles.

:33:55
What are the odds?
:33:57
Probably about the same
as being eaten by an ostrich.
