BMW M3 Passenger Throwing Up on Nurburgring Is a Dangerous Adenauer Forst Moment

The Nurburgring obviously isn't for the faint-hearted and while we're at it, we must also mention the Green Hell doesn't welcome the... faint-stomached.
The piece of footage at the bottom of the page explains everything, with the video showing what happens when the G-forces developed on the 'Ring become too much for a passenger.

We're dealing with an E46 BMW M3, one whose driver decides to stop on the outer green side of Adenauer Forst (Adenauer Forest) to let his passenger out - as the man exists the car, he goes through a bit of a stomach-emptying experience close to the protection element on the side of the track.

However, while this kind of episodes can only cause so much hard, stopping your car in such a location can lead to more serious consequences, especially during the usually-overcrowded Touristenfahretn (tourist days) events.

Sure, some spaces around the Nordschleife corners are safer than others, but, when it comes to bends such as Adenauer Forst, no square inch of grass can guarantee another car won't ram you as the passenger is handling his or her business.

We're dealing with an S-section, whose first bend is the kind that can easily catch an untrained driver unprepared. Most 'Ring novices that find themselves in such a situation end up understeering their way into the bend and cutting it on the grass, close to the area where the Bimmer is waiting.

Admittedly, the kind of entry speeds that characterize this twist should allow a driver to slow down in time to avoid an impact with a car stopped in the position of this M3, but the Nurburgring is the kind of place that teaches you one must always be alert.

In fact, the video below provides a few examples of what happens when Adenauer Forst surprises drivers.

P.S.: This video isn't all about Nordschleife failures, though, and perhaps the M5 Ring Taxi powersliding its way through the "S" is the best example of how one can have fun through this bend.
