WOW, Caught on Tape, Eddie Griffin Enzo Crash!!!

Really?!?! Wow..first I've heard of this!!

 

whats even funnier is that the guy behind the concrete barrier doesn't even move.....like a $650k supercar crashing straight at you isn't scary...he just keeps standing there, smoking

 

I figgured this would be in every ferrari forum but the lambo forum...? Why?

 

It IS in damn near every Ferrari forum... Guess no one knows how to search anymore

 

I don't know of this actor. He looked like he was almost smiling after the crash, like "**** me, I did something really stupid." I suspect that he was taken away in the ambulance more for avoiding embarassment than anything else.
Was the guy in the blue hoodie the car's owner?

 

No, the owner was the Producer, Daniel Sadek. He's interviewed about it here...

I don't know the driver either. The owner doesn't seem too shaken up about it. I guess that's why he let the guy drive it in the first place. What a screw up.

 

I lol'd when i saw it, it came out on the news....he was smiling while everyone was taking pictures!! I hope they make him pay, he can afford it....

 

I doubt Eddie Griffin can afford it, Daniel can afford 40 of them so I doubt he cares with all the free publicity he is getting for the film he bankrolled...Lets not forget that he also totalled his Carrera GT on purpose for the film. At least Nick Cage has replica's built to tear up in his movies.

 

One less ugly Enzo to look at....

 

My mother called me and said "did you hear the 2 million dollar Ferrari crashed" the news cast said the value was over 1.5 million, LOL! Maybe if they keep crashing them...

So I told her, no it's the same 1 million dollar car your son has. My brother has an Enzo so I guess he is happy and sad at the same time.

 

You make it sound as if this happened during production of the film. This is not the case. This was during a charity event to promote the film.

The Porsche CGT that was destroyed for the film was a previously wrecked CGT on a salvage title. For the scene where the Diablo Roadster was destroyed a replica was used.

I'm sure the Enzo was insured as part of the film production which would cover it for damage sustained during production or during any event publicizing the film. In short, he's covered. This is typical with movie cars.

 

So how many Enzos are left? I can recall at least 5 that are totaled off the top of my head....

1. Dahr Jamails
2. Europe car?????
3. Europe track car???
4. Something about Malibu and a guy named Dietrich
5. Eddie Griffin

I put the ??? by numbers 2 and 3 because I hardly remember the story other than a quick snippet on the internet.

 

Repost #17 i think...

but why would you see this and think to put it in the Lamborghini section?

 

And the on in Utah: S/N 131320, Richard Losee.

 

You might be surprised what he can and cannot afford. The guy has been doing stand-up for a looonnnngggg time. I, and many others, paid to see him back in the day before he became mainstream...he is a good comedian. His movies don't do too poorly either...hell, Half-Baked is a cult classic.

I don't think he was laughing about it. I am sure that he feels terrible, and the initial reactions that people are ragging him about are more the result of being shaken up and frightened than anything else. My first (and only) major wreck that left my Vette at the bottom of a steep hill was followed by a strained laugh and Holy sheit...

Give the guy a break.

 

He was in half baked? I mainly remember Dave Chapelle, Jim Breur, and that other guy being the main characters...Of course when it came out we had to get half baked to go see it Even if half baked has done $100mm at this point I seriously doubt he had enough clout at that time to get back end royalties, was he also a producer? I have never seen his stand up in person so I have no idea bout his finances but I don't see many comedians at his level(C list) being able to afford a car like an Enzo.

 

I am not surprised he crashed an Enzo. He is a terrible actor; he is a lousy comedian, so I guess incompetent driver fellows the scheme.

 

OOPPSS!!! Got me there! Wrong movie...

 

He-pimp in the Deuce Bigelow movies

 

I'm sure he prolly does well. I don't know if he's Enzo material though. I see lots of people on Cribs that you would think would have some serious money that don't seem to live all that great. Maybe they just dont care aboout that stuff, or they just save it? Duece Bigalow himself, Rob Schneider comes to mind. Also that that goofy dude, Andy Dick. Andy is all over TV, yet his house was normal and he had some wierdo living in a Streamline trailer in his driveway.

 

hahahahaha!

 

he is smoking a joint!

 

i dont know why i keep playing the impact over and over again....and laughing every time
