:31:02
Which isn't always a good thing.
:31:08
Well, that's the end of our race.
:31:11
Isn't that a shame?
:31:12
Yeah, that sucks, man.
:31:15
That rock is what got me.
:31:17
Just the average person
who has a 9-to-5 job

:31:19
has 10,000 close calls
over the course of a life.

:31:22
It's the light
that you run through.

:31:23
Go through an intersection
and that split second later

:31:25
somebody runs a red light and goes
behind you, you never even saw it.

:31:28
Down here you're doing like
all 10,000 in one day.

:31:31
I think when you get back home,
after you do something like that,

:31:34
it's like slo-mo, life is slo-mo.
Everything else, that's no big deal.

:31:37
You got a job interview
or you're showing up for something big,

:31:39
well, what's the worst thing
that could happen?

:31:41
Somebody says no,
you know, to a sales job?

:31:43
Well, I just almost got killed 40 times.
So not really that big of a deal.

:31:48
T's key to deal with adversity.
:31:50
Al Hogan uprighted his truck
and was back in the race.

:31:52
We know it was gonna roll over.
It don't seem to phase this one.

:31:56
This truck likes it, I guess.
:31:59
Rides better now than it did before.
:32:01
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?
