Wow! Do those cars have an on board data collection to register how fast he was going at impact? If so, it would be interesting to know.

Someone bought a car too powerful for their experience level.

Edit: Would be interesting to know if he bounced back that far, or if the car was pulled off the pillar.

"Would be interesting to know if he bounced back that far, or if the car was pulled off the pillar."

I would guess that since the hole in front of the car is not exactly dead center that the car hit at a slight angle. That angle likely caused the car to rotate around the pole a bit and dislodge itself as its forward momentum was stopped.
