S550 Mustang Slams Into Crowd While Trying Icy Donuts

Just when we thought the trend of Ford Mustangs crashing into crowds of spectators couldn’t get any dumber, a new video has emerged online that’s just unbelievable. In it we see an S550 trying to do donuts in an obviously icy parking lot, lose control, and crash into a crowd, pinning some guy against a chain link fence. Thankfully, nobody appears to have been injured, but it could’ve been a fatal event.

Mustang tries taking out people as they eat donuts.

The S550 Mustang appears to be part of some sort of organized show, not a street takeover-style gathering. There are pathetic metal barriers, which honestly do nothing, and people wearing high-visibility vests plus carrying radios. We don’t know what exactly the event was or even where exactly it was held, but we’re guessing it’s somewhere that usually doesn’t get snow.

At least we hope it was somewhere in the Deep South, because people in Michigan and such should know better than to try doing donuts or drifting in an icy parking lot. It’s about the dumbest idea we’ve seen in a while.

It looks like there had been some incidents before since the S550 Mustang is missing its rear bumper cover. Or maybe the driver had an incident at another event. Either way, if we see a guy come to a drifting or donuts competition and he has damage like that on his ride, we’re leaving because that’s a bad sign.

Adding further to the stupidity is the crowd, which seems to just eat up the tragedy like candy. They all have their phones out and probably posted the video to their social media as fast as they could to get more followers. The same mentality rules supreme at street takeovers, so even though this isn’t one it sure feels similar.

Somep people of course are trying to say this happened because the car is a Mustang. Honestly, we see stupid stuff like this with Corvettes, Camaros, Challengers, Chargers, and BMWs pretty often. The real reason this happened was some people don’t understand how physics work and thought this event in bad weather was a good idea.
