As they are Dutch, I can't understand a thing they are saying, so I had to search and found this...

It looks staged because you can't imagine that anyone is that bad of a driver. What is nuts is the quantity of vehicles and people directly in the path. Park them at the start not the end!? Whoever is the safety guy for the show should be fired!
Oh, and wondering why he looked behind him at the signs? Apparently he was to pass the signs at speed, look over his shoulder to determine if he is to drive around the foam blocks to the left or right. You can see in the video that one sign has an arrow and the other a red circle.

Wow.
No helmets, narrow runway and fast (third gear) run, cars parked right where the guy will spin and having the driver turn totally around to figure out which way to go around the barrier (at speed).....
Oh, yea and how about allowing passengers, even if they are cute.
What I could hear was from the girls was " on two, yeah, on two, ok......2....enough! enough!

See the driver run over on his tip-toes 
I had saw this earlier on another board I frequent...
The tippy toes are nice but I love how the driver after hitting the blocks lets go of the wheel and covers his face screaming......Jeez
I also have saw since that it could have been staged.....At least hitting the Host part??
