Autobahn Audi RS6 Crash[edit]
On 6th March 2019, on the Autobahn[1] A81, near the city of Mundelsheim, in the state of Baden-Württemberg, a 68-year-old man, while driving his Audi RS 6[2], from the Audi, at a thought 300km[3] (or more than 186mph[4]), while driving on the Autobahn[1]. Due to the speed limit put by the German Government[5] on the Autobahn[1] along the country, made the car fly until hitting one of the metallic supports of a variable message sign[6] on the highway, making the car break up apart the entire chassis[7] and was held along the support.
Background[edit]
According to what was seen during the accident, the 62-year-old driver of the truck was changing lanes, from the middle lane to the left lane without seeing the Audi RS 6[2] coming, so by that the truck blocked the pathway of the RS 6[2], so when the driver saw the imminent truck changing lane, he was close, forcing him to try to avoid the truck by making a quick changing to the highway shoulder in an abrupt movement, but as the Audi RS 6[2] was at 300km[3], at such high speed, an abrupt turn can make the wheels lose grip and make the car starting slide trough de ground, or commonly know by cars lovers as "drift". The fact is that when the Audi RS 6[2] tried to change lanes to the shoulder, he started to drift a bit to the left, making the right side of the back hit the left side of the truck. According to the physics, the truck was likely "stop" from the Audi RS 6[2] perspective, since the truck was at 120km[3] and the Audi at 300km[3], making the difference in the velocity of 180km[3], and as the fact that the truck was more likely "stop" to the Audi RS 6[2] perspective, the truck served as n ramp, making the car fly until hit the variable message sign[6] support, and according to the inertia, made the Audi RS 6[2] stretch and break up-appart along the support, and also making the driver being ejected of the vehicle. Still, due to the impact, his body gets some ofitsr parts ripped out and lost due to the immense G-force and the chassis[7] of the front being stretched up the window, considered by many people the worst car crash in the world.
In popular culture[edit]
Nowadays the Audi RS 6[2] crash gained popularity while assigned with the music Kerosene by the band Crystal Castles, in a slow-down version of the music, probably started after August 2023, and by that, started inspiring a trend of taking real accidents and put the slow-down version of Kerosene as edit, or make recreations in the game BeamNG.drive, and as consequence, a meme, that if you drive while listening to Kerosene slow-down you can crash your car.
