I know it was not a professional driver but even if it were, i would not be crowding in getting closer and closer to the vehicle. You never know what the driver is going to do next.

Just what we needed. More reasons to make the general public think people who own Corvettes are idiots.

You want to see real crazy?
This is a favorite weekend pastime in the Persian Gulf.

At 2:20, you see the guys arm flying thru the air.
We expats here figure that since they have no political freedom or access to women, the gov't allows this so they can blow off some steam. Oh yeah, they won't wear seat belts as it's considered contrary to their religion.

Among millennials as compared to the previous generation:
Teen pregnancy rates, teen sex rates, and abortion rates are down (because everyone is now gay)
crime rates are down (because no one reports crimes and weed is becoming legal),
tobacco use is down (forced by the federal government),
Divorce rates are down (because folks aren't getting married because they are afraid of commitment),
college education rates are up (and they can't find jobs),
personal savings rates are up (because they live in mom's basement and don't have to pay rent),
worker productivity is up (thanks to my generation inventing your productivity tools),
wages are down (because they have no real skills, because real skills require hard work).
Viral videos are just anecdotes.

Driving near the edge or out of control near people is only cool on a racetrack where people are safe from the driver's mistakes.
It's damned fun to have 400+ HP in your car, but use it wisely for crying out loud.

Very true.
I've heard plenty of stories from Boomers and Post War Cohorts of gaining bruises and broken bones learning............
There just aren't videos from those eras, so it is real easy for an old timer that already learned their lessons without having video proof to sit around and talk about how stupid a generation is......... even though they did plenty of stupid stuff.
This high horse attitude has to stop. It really just makes people sound ignorant.

The best part is I don't see any Corvettes in these videos!

Corvettes are pretty rare. If they want a two seater it's a Ferarri, Lambo, McLaren or some other exotic.

Well there's a millennial poster if I ever saw one.
